This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.  
It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with the National  
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of  
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.  
WARNING – Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.  
Electrical Requirements  
Check Installation Instructions for proper location for the power supply.  
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt 60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. or more protected  
electrical supply. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be  
provided.  
The oven is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall  
receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUM-  
STANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PIN FROM THE PLUG.  
Notes: 1. If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or  
service person.  
2. Neither Sharp nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting  
from failure to observe the correct electrical connection procedures.  
Radio or TV Interference  
Should there be any interference caused by the microwave oven to your radio or TV, check that the microwave  
oven is on a different electrical circuit, relocate the radio or TV as far away from the oven as feasible or check  
position and signal of receiving antenna.

ABOUT YOUR OVEN  
The fan will automatically start when heat rises from  
This Operation Manual is valuable: read it carefully  
range surface units or burners and when convection,  
high mix, low mix or the broil settings are used.  
and always save it for reference.  
A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset.  
Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques,  
hints and recipes. See pages 28 and 29 for ordering  
the Ultimate Accessory, the SHARP CAROUSEL  
MICROWAVE COOKBOOK.  
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. Ventilation openings  
must not be blocked.  
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. See page 11 for  
complete instructions.  
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be  
used to dry clothes or newspapers.  
Your oven is rated 850 watts by using the IEC Test  
Procedure. In using recipes or package directions,  
check food a minute or two before the minimum time  
and add time accordingly.  
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.

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING  
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards

through cooking both from top to bottom and from  
the center of the dish to the outside.  
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount  
of time indicated and add more as needed. Food  
severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.  
• Add standing time. Remove food from oven and  
stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which allows  
the food to finish cooking without overcooking.  
• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cook-  
book for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper,  
microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent  
spattering and help foods to cook evenly.  
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that  
cooking temperatures have been reached.  
Doneness signs include:  
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any  
thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking  
before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.  
- Food steams throughout, not just at edge.  
- Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.  
- Poultry thigh joints move easily.  
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice  
during cooking, if possible.  
- Meat and poultry show no pinkness.  
- Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.  
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to  
speed cooking of such foods as chicken and ham-  
burgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over  
at least once.  
ABOUT SAFETY  
• Check foods to see that they are cooked to the  
United States Department of Agriculture's  
recommended temperatures.  
• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when  
handling utensils that are in contact with hot food.  
Enough heat from the food can transfer through  
utensils to cause skin burns.  
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from  
the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest edge of  
a dish's covering and carefully open popcorn and  
oven cooking bags away from the face.  
T E M P

F O O D  
... for fresh pork, ground meat,  
boneless white poultry, fish,  
seafood, egg dishes and frozen  
prepared food.  
• Stay near the oven while it's in use and check  
cooking progress frequently so that there is no  
chance of overcooking food.  
165°F  
... for leftover, ready-to-reheat  
refrigerated, and deli and carry-  
out “fresh” food.  
• NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or  
other items.  
170°F  
... white meat of poultry.  
... dark meat of poultry.  
• Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve  
its high quality and minimize the spread of  
foodborne bacteria.  
180°F  
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a  
thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER  
leave the thermometer in the food during cooking,  
unless it is approved for microwave oven use.  
• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue can  
cause arcing and/or fires.  
• Use care when removing items from the oven so  
that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not  
touch the safety door latches.  
ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE  
Children should be taught all safety precautions: use  
Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave  
oven with a supervising person very near to them.  
Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person  
should be in the same room.  
potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special  
attention to packages that crisp food because they  
may be extra hot.  
Don’t assume that because a child has mastered one  
cooking skill he/she can cook everything.  
The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably;  
if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.  
Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not  
a toy. See page 25 for Child Lock feature.  
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing  
on the oven door.

defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting time,  
program the oven in 1 minute increments on power  
level 3 until totally defrosted.  
8. Any sensor setting can be programmed with More  
or Less Time Adjustment. See page 24.  
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost  
only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to  
place food in a microwave-safe dish.  
Selecting Foods:  
1. The sensor works with foods at normal storage  
temperature. For example, foods for reheating would  
be at refrigerator temperature and potatoes for bak-  
ing would be room temperature.  
SENSOR COOKING  
Sharp's Sensor is a semi-conductor device that  
detects the vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from  
the food as it heats. The Sensor adjusts the cooking  
times and power level for various foods and quantities.  
It takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.  
2. More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts  
should be cooked by time and variable power.  
Covering Foods:  
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover  
recommended in the Sensor Cooking chart for these  
foods.  
Using Sensor Settings:  
1. Room temperature should not exceed 95˚F.  
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container  
and the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any  
moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.  
1. Casserole lid.  
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for  
microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow  
approximately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to  
allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not  
touch food.  
3. Sensor cooking can only be entered within 1 minute  
after cooking, opening and closing the door or  
touching the STOP/CLEAR pad.

Clean the outside with mild soap and water; rinse and  
dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any type of household  
or abrasive cleaner.  
TURNTABLE/TURNTABLE  
SUPPORT  
DOOR  
The ceramic turntable and turntable support can be  
removed for easy cleaning. Wash them in mild, sudsy  
water; for stubborn stains use a mild cleanser and  
scouring sponge as described above. They are also  
dishwasher-safe using top rack.  
Wipe the window on both sides with a damp cloth to  
remove any spills or spatters. Metal parts will be easier  
to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. Avoid  
the use of harsh abrasives.  
TOUCH CONTROL PANEL  
Care should be taken in cleaning the touch control panel.  
If the control panel becomes soiled, open the oven door  
to inactivate the control panel before cleaning. Wipe  
the panel with a cloth dampened slightly with water only.  
Dry with a soft cloth. Do not scrub or use any sort of  
chemical cleaners. Avoid the use of excess water. Close  
door and touch STOP/CLEAR.  
OVEN RACKS  
The high and low baking racks can be removed for easy  
cleaning and stored away from the microwave oven  
when racks are not needed.After each use, wash them  
in mild, sudsy water. For any stubborn stains, use a  
mild kitchen cleanser and scouring sponge as described  
above. They are dishwasher-proof.  
INTERIOR- AFTER MICROWAVE  
COOKING  
The oven walls, ceiling and floor are stainless steel.  
Cleaning after microwave cooking is easy because no  
heat is generated to the interior surfaces; therefore,  
there is no baking and setting of spills or spattering. To  
clean the interior surfaces, wipe with a soft cloth and  
warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE OR HARSH  
CLEANERS OR SCOURING PADS. For heavier soil,  
use mild soap; rinse thoroughly with hot water.  
GREASE FILTERS  
Filters should be cleaned at least once a month. Never  
operate the fan or oven without the filters in place.  
INTERIOR- AFTER CONVECTION,  
MIX OR BROIL COOKING  
Spatters may occur because of moisture and grease.  
Wash immediately after use with hot, soapy water. Rinse  
and polish dry. Harder to remove spatters may occur if  
oven is not thoroughly cleaned or if there is long time/  
high temperature cooking. If so, you may wish to  
purchase an oven cleaner pad with liquid cleaner within  
it-not a soap filled steel pad-for use on stainless or  
porcelain surfaces. Follow manufacturer's directions  
carefully and be especially cautious not to get any of  
the liquid cleaner in the perforations on the wall or  
ceiling or any door surfaces. Rinse thoroughly and  
polish dry.  
1. Pull the tab toward the front of the oven, down slightly  
and remove the filter. Repeat for the other filter.  
2. Soak the filters in a sink or dish pan filled with hot  
water and detergent. DO NOT use ammonia or  
other alkali; they will react with the filter material and  
darken it.  
3. Agitate and scrub with a brush to remove embed-  
ded dirt.  
4. Rinse thoroughly and shake dry.  
5. Replace by fitting the filter back into the opening.  
WAVEGUIDE COVER  
The waveguide cover is located on the ceiling in the  
oven cavity. It is made from mica so requires special  
care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to assure good  
oven performance. Carefully wipe with a damp cloth  
any food spatters from the surface of the cover imme-  
diately after they occur. Built-up splashes may over-  
heat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire. DO NOT  
REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER.  
ODOR REMOVAL  
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the oven.  
To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and juice  
of 1 lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass

FAN  
CHARCOAL FILTER  
The fan will automatically start when heat rises from  
range surface units or burners and when convection,  
high mix, low mix or the broil settings are used. This  
protects the microwave oven from excessive tempera-  
ture rise. The fan will stay on until the temperature  
decreases. It cannot be turned off manually during  
this time.  
Charcoal Filter, Sharp Part Number RK-220 is used for  
No-vented, recirculated installation. The filter should be  
changed every 6 to 12 months depending on use.  
1. Disconnect power to the oven at the circuit breaker  
panel or by unplugging.  
2. Remove 3 screws that secure louver.  
For other uses, select either high or low speed.  
PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE:  
3. Remove louver by inserting flat edge screwdriver  
over each tab depressing the tab down and moving  
louver away from unit.  
1. DO NOT leave range unattended while using high  
temperatures. Automatic fan may start and provide  
excessive air to the surface units. This may cause  
spattering or boilover.  
4. Pull the louver away from the oven.  
5. Slide Charcoal Filter into position on support tabs.  
6. Push louver back into place and gently snap tabs  
into place by hand (engaging both the bottom and  
top tabs) and replace the 3 screws to secure louver.  
2. Avoid burning food.  
3. Keep grease filters clean.

(See illustration.)  
6. Remove old light bulb and replace only with an  
equivalent watt bulb available from a Sharp  
Authorized Servicer or parts distributor. Bulbs are  
also available at most hardware stores or lighting  
centers. DO NOT USE A BULB LARGER THAN  
30 WATTS.  
3. Replace bulbs only with equivalent watt bulbs  
available from a Sharp Authorized Servicer or parts  
distributor. Bulbs are also available at most hard-  
ware stores or lighting centers. DO NOT USEABULB  
LARGER THAN 30 WATTS.

used; push louver back in place (engaging both the  
bottom and top tabs) and replace the louver  
mounting screws.  
4. Close light cover and secure with screw removed in  
step 2.
