COOKING ADVICE
WARNING - Always attend the oven when in use.
Carefully follow the SHARP Operation Manual at all times. If you exceed
recommended cooking times and/or use power levels that are too high, food may
overheat, burn, and in extreme circumstances, catch fire and damage the oven.
Carefully follow the SHARP Operation Manual at all times. If you exceed
recommended cooking times and/or use power levels that are too high, food may

not, steam and pressure will build up inside and the container may explode.
Do not place hot foods/utensils on a cold turntable, or cold foods/utensils on a hot turntable.
WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to
explode.
