    1. all packing materials from inside the oven
    cavity; however, DO NOT REMOVE THE
    WAVEGUIDE COVER, which is located on
    the right cavity
    wall. Read enclo-
    sures and SAVE

    Manual.
    2. the feature
    sticker, if there is
    one, from the out-
    side of the door.
    Check the oven for any damage, such as mis-
    aligned or bent door, damaged door seals and
    sealing surfaces, broken or loose door hingesand latches and dents inside the cavity or on
    the door. If there is any damage, do not oper-
    ate the oven and contact your dealer or
    SHARP AUTHORIZED  SERVICER.
    Choosing a Location for Your Oven
    You will use the oven frequently so plan its
    location for ease of use. Its wise, if possible,
    to have counter space on at least one side of
    the oven. Allow at least 2 inches (50mm) on
    the sides, top and at the rear of the oven for
    air circulation. Do not place or install the oven
    in any area where heat and steam are gener-
    ated; for example, next to or above a conven-
    tional gas or electric range or above a con-
    ventional wall oven. Heat and steam may dam-
    age the electronics or the mechanical parts of
    the oven.
    UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
    GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
    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
    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 this appliance 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. Should you only have a 2-prong outlet, have a quali-
    fied electrician install a correct wall receptacle.
    A 3-prong adapter may be purchased and used temporarily if
    local codes allow. Follow package directions.
    A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risk of becom-
    ing entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
    Extension Cord
    If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension
    cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will
    accept the plug on the microwave oven. The marked rating of the exten-
    sion cord should be AC 115-120 volt, 15 amp. or more.
    Be careful not to drape the cord over the countertop or table where it
    can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
    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
    This Operation Manual is valuable: read it care-
    fully and always save it for reference.
    A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset.
    Check it for microwave cooking principles, tech-
    niques, hints and recipes. See pages 19 and 20
    for ordering the Sharp Carousel Microwave Cook-
    book.
    NEVER use the oven without the turntable and sup-
    port 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%,
    Eggs,
    sausages,
    nuts, seeds
    fruits &
    vegetables
    ABOUT FOOD
    • Puncture egg yolks before cooking to
    prevent “explosion”.
    • Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash,
    hot dogs and sausages so that steam
    escapes.• Cook eggs in shells.
    • Reheat whole eggs.
    • Dry nuts or seeds in shells.
    DODON’TFOOD
    you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It
    is normal for the exterior of the oven to be warm to
    the touch when cooking or reheating.
    Condensation is a normal part of microwave cook-
    ing. 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.
    The oven is for food preparation only. It should not
    be used to dry clothes or newspapers.
    Your oven is rated 800 watts by using the IEC Test
    Procedure.
    • Use specially bagged popcorn for the mi-
    crowave oven.
    • Listen while popping corn for the pop-
    ping to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or use
    special POPCORN pad.
    • Place carefully so bag does not touch
    oven walls. The corners of the bag may
    be folded down.
    • Transfer baby food to small dish and heat
    carefully, stirring often. Check tempera-
    ture before serving.
    • Put nipples on bottles after heating and
    shake thoroughly. “Wrist” test before
    feeding.
    • Cut baked goods with filling after heat-
    ing to release steam and avoid burns.
    • Stir liquids briskly before heating and
    allow to stand at least for 20 seconds
    after heating before stirring or drinking
    to avoid eruption.
    • Use deep bowl, when cooking liquids or
    cereals, to prevent boilovers.
    Popcorn
    Baby food
    General• Pop popcorn in regular brown bags or
    glass bowls.
    • Exceed maximum time on popcorn pack-
    age.
    • Heat baby food in original jars.
    • Heat disposable bottles.
    • Heat bottles with nipples on.
    • Heat or cook in closed glass jars or air
    tight containers.
    • Can in the microwave as harmful bacte-
    ria may not be destroyed.
    • Deep fat fry.
    • Dry wood, gourds, herbs or wet papers.

    SEC R220KW/K,230KW/K,209KK
    ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
    The following coverings are ideal:
    • Paper towels are good for covering foods for
    reheating and absorbing fat while cooking ba-
    con.
    • Wax paper can be used for cooking and re-
    heating.
    • Plastic wrap that is specially marked for mi-
    crowave use can be used for cooking and re-
    heating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch
    food. Vent so steam can escape.
    • Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice
    because heat is kept near the food to hasten
    cooking.
    • Oven cooking bags are good for large meats
    or foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use
    metal twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam
    can escape.
    How to use aluminum foil in your microwave
    oven:
    • Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed
    smoothly on the food can be used to shield
    areas that are either defrosting or cooking too
    quickly.
    • Foil should not come closer than one inch to
    any surface of the oven.
    Should you have questions about utensils or cov-
    erings, check a good microwave cookbook or fol-
    low recipe suggestions.
    ACCESSORIES There are many microwave acces-
    sories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully
    before you purchase so that they meet your needs.
    A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in
    determining correct doneness and assure you that
    foods have been cooked to safe temperatures.
    Sharp is not responsible for any damage to the
    oven when accessories are used.
    Children should be taught all safety precautions:
    use potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay
    special attention to packages that crisp food be-
    cause they may be extra hot.
    Don’t assume that because a child has mastered
    one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.
    Children need to learn that the microwave oven is
    not a toy. See page 16 for Child Lock feature. It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many
    pieces already in your kitchen can be used suc-
    cessfully in your new microwave oven. Make sure
    the utensil does not touch the interior walls during
    cooking.
    Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking
    and reheating:
    • glass ceramic (Pyroceram®), such as
    Corningware®.
    • heat-resistant glass (Pyrex
    ®)
    • microwave-safe plastics
    • paper plates
    • microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porce-
    lain
    • browning dish (Do not exceed recommended
    preheating time. Follow manufacturers direc-
    tions.)
    These items can be used for short time reheating
    of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:
    • wood, straw, wicker
    DO NOT USE
    • metal pans and bakeware
    • dishes with metallic trim
    • non-heat-resistant glass
    • non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)
    • recycled paper products
    • brown paper bags
    • food storage bags
    • metal twist-ties
    Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for
    microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and
    microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which
    becomes very hot should not be used.
    ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE
    Children below the age of 7 should use the micro-
    wave oven with a supervising person very near to
    them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the super-
    vising person should be in the same room.
    The child must be able to reach the oven comfort-
    ably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.
    At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or
    swing on the oven door.

    ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
    • Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas to-
    wards outside of dish.
    • Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount
    of time indicated and add more as needed. Food
    severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
    • 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.
    • Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any
    thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcook-
    ing before dense, thick areas are cooked thor-
    oughly.
    • Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or
    twice during cooking, if possible.
    • 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.• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway
    through cooking both from top to bottom and from
    the center of the dish to the outside.
    • Add standing time. Remove food from oven and
    stir, if possible. Cover for standing time which al-
    lows the food to finish cooking without overcook-
    ing.
    • Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that
    cooking temperatures have been reached.
    Doneness signs include:
    - Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
    - Center bottom of dish is very hot to the
    touch.
    - Poultry thigh joints move easily.
    - Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
    - Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
    • Check foods to see that they are cooked to the
    United States Department of Agricultures recom-
    mended temperatures.
    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.• 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 dishs covering and carefully open popcorn
    and oven cooking bags away from the face.
    • Stay near the oven while its in use and check
    cooking progress frequently so that there is no
    chance of overcooking food.
    • NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or
    other items.
    • Select, store and handle food carefully to pre-
    serve its high quality and minimize the spread of
    foodborne bacteria.
    • 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.
