About Your Oven
This Operation Manual is valuable: read it carefully
and always save it for reference.
The Sharp Carousel Convection Microwave
Cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it frequently
for cooking principles, techniques, hints and recipes.
NEVER use the oven without the turntable and
support nor turn the turntable over so that a large
dish could be placed in the oven. The turntable will
turn both clockwise and counterclockwise.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to
absorb the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%,
you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off.
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking.
Room humidity and the moisture in food will influence
the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven.
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much
condensation as uncovered ones. Vents on the oven
back must not be blocked.
After using convection, automatic mix or broil,
you will hear the sound of the cooling fan. The fan
may continue to operate as long as 5 minutes,
depending on the oven temperature.
Be aware that, unlike microwave-only ovens,
convection microwave ovens have a tendency to
become hot during convection, automatic mix and
broil cooking.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be
used to dry clothes or newspapers.
Your oven is rated 900 watts using the IEC Test
Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,
check food at the minimum time and add time
accordingly.
