SUITABLE OVENWARE To cook/defrost food in a microwave oven, the microwave energy must be able to pass through the container to penetrate the food. Therefore it is important to choose suitable cookware. Round/oval dishes are preferable to square/oblong ones, as the food in the corners tends to overcook. A variety of cookware can be used as listed below.
WARNING: Follow instructions in the SHARP operation manual at all times. If you exceed recommended cooking times and use power levels that are too high, food may overheat, burn and, in extreme circumstances, catch fi re and damage the oven.

Food Characteristics Composition Foods high in fat or sugar (e.g. Christmas pudding, mince pies) require less heating time. Care should be taken as overheating can lead to re. Bones in food conduct heat, making the food cook more quickly. Care must be taken so that the food is cooked evenly.
DEFROSTING ADVICE Using your microwave oven is the quickest defrosting method. It is a simple process but the following instructions are essential to ensure the food is thoroughly defrosted. • Remove all packaging and wrapping before defrosting. • To defrost food, use microwave power levels 30P or 10P. •...
REHEATING ADVICE For the reheating of foods, follow the advice and guidelines below to ensure food is thoroughly reheated before serving. Plated meals Remove any poultry or meat portions, reheat these separately, see below. Place smaller items of food to the centre of the plate, larger and thicker foods to the edge. Cover with vented microwave cling lm and reheat on 50P, stir/rearrange halfway through reheating.
WARNING: Never adjust, repair or modify the oven yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other than a SHARP trained engineer to carry out servicing or repairs. This is important as it may involve the removal of covers that provide protection against microwave energy.
• Check to ensure the door is securely closed, engaging the door lock system. If the door is not properly closed, the microwave will not operate. IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT THE SHARP HELPLINE. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.
