• It is important to clean the interior of your

microwave oven after each use.

• To clean the oven interior, use a mild detergent

solution, such as washing-up liquid, with warm
water on a soft cloth.

• Food and liquid splashes will build-up on the

oven walls and ceiling. If grease, fat and food
debris is allowed to build-up in the oven
interior it may overheat, smoke or even catch
fire when next using the oven.

• Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times.

The waveguide cover is constructed from a
fragile material and should be cleaned with
care (follow the cleaning instructions above).
NOTE: Excessive soaking may cause
disintegration of the waveguide cover.
The waveguide cover is a consumable part and
without regular cleaning, will need to be
replaced.

• Food will release steam during cooking and

cause condensation inside the oven and door.
It is important to wipe the oven dry. A build-
up of condensation will eventually lead to rust
forming on the oven interior.

• Do not allow grease or dirt to build-up on the

door seals or areas around the door. This may
prevent the door from closing correctly and
may cause a leakage of microwaves (follow the
cleaning instructions opposite).

• Ensure the turntable and roller stay are

cleaned after every use with a mild washing-up
liquid solution and dried. This will prevent the
build-up of grease and food debris.
The turntable is dishwasher safe.

• Wipe the outside of the microwave oven with a mild detergent solution, such as washing-up liquid,

with warm water on a soft cloth.

NOTES:
• Never use spray cleaners, oven pads or abrasive scourers as these damage the surface of the oven.
• Take care not to let soapy water drip through the small holes in the oven walls and the cavity floor.

Excess water spillage through these holes will cause damage to the oven interior.

• Failure to maintain your oven in a clean condition could adversely affect the life of the oven and

possibly result in a hazardous situation.

If you think the oven is not working properly there
are some simple checks you can carry out yourself
before calling an engineer. This will help prevent
unnecessary service calls if the fault is something
simple.
Follow this simple check below:
Place half a cup of water on the turntable and
close the door. Select HIGH and programme the
oven to cook for 1 minute.
1. Does the oven lamp come on when it is cooking?
2. Does the turntable rotate?
3. Does the cooling fan work? (Check by placing

your hand above the air vent openings.)

4. After 1 minute does the audible signal sound?
5. Is the water in the cup hot?
If you answer “NO” to any question first check
that the oven is plugged in properly and the fuse
has not blown. If there is no fault with either,
check against the chart below.

• The door seal stops microwave leakage during

oven operation, but does not form an airtight
seal. It is normal to see drops of water, light or
feel warm air around the oven door. Food with
a high moisture content will release steam and
cause condensation inside the door which may
drip from the oven.

• Repairs and Modifications: Do not attempt to

operate the oven if it is not working properly.

• Outer Cabinet & Lamp Access: Never remove

the outer cabinet. This is very dangerous due
to high voltage parts inside which must never
be touched, as this could be fatal.
Your oven is not fitted with a lamp access
cover. If the lamp fails, do not attempt to
replace the lamp yourself, call a SHARP
approved service facility.

When the oven is working, air circulates within the cavity.
The door does not form an airtight seal so air may escape from the door.

The oven cavity will normally be colder than the food being cooked, and so
steam produced when cooking will condense on the colder surface.
The amount of steam produced depends on the water content of the food
being cooked. Some foods, such as potatoes have a high moisture content.
Condensation trapped in the door glass should clear after a few hours.

Arcing will occur when a metallic object comes into close proximity to
the oven cavity during cooking. This may possibly roughen the surface of
the cavity, but would not otherwise damage the oven. 

Ensure all “eyes” are removed and the potatoes have been pierced, place
directly onto the turntable or in a heat resistant flan dish or similar.

Check the door is closed properly.

Ensure correct power level has been selected.

The microwave energy pulses ON and OFF during cooking/defrosting.

The cabinet may become warm to the touch - keep children away.

Draught circulates
around the door.

Condensation forms in
the oven, and may drip
from the door.

Flashing or arcing from
within the cavity when
cooking.

Arcing potatoes.

The display is lit but the
control panel will not
work when pressed.

Oven cooks too slowly.

Oven makes a noise.

Outer cabinet is hot.

NOTE:
If you cook food for more than the standard time
(see chart below) using the same cooking mode,
the oven’s safety mechanisms automatically activate.
The microwave power level will be reduced.

Microwave HIGH cooking
