WARNING: AGAINST THE CHARGE OF THE HIGH-
VOLTAGE CAPACITOR
The high-voltage capacitor remains charged about 60 sec-
onds after the oven has been switched off. Wait for 60
seconds and then short-circuit the connection of the high-
voltage capacitor (that is, of the connecting lead of the high-
voltage rectifier) against the chassis with the use of an
insulated screwdriver.

Sharp recommend that wherever possible fault-finding is
carried out with the supply disconnected. It may in, some
cases, be necessary to connect the supply after the outer
case has been removed, in this event carry out 3D checks and
then disconnect the leads to the primary of the High voltage
transformer. Ensure that these leads remain isolated from
other components and the oven chassis. (Use insulation tape
if necessary.) When the testing is completed carry out 3D
checks and reconnect the leads to the primary of the High
voltage transformer.

Microwave ovens should not be run empty. To test for the
presence of microwave energy within a cavity, place a cup of
cold water on the oven turntable, close the door and set the
power to HIGH and set the microwave timer for two (2) minutes.
When the two minutes has elapsed (timer at zero) carefully
check that the water is now hot. If the water remains cold carry

Note:
Temperature measurements taken whilst the oven is in convection mode will differ from the displayed level.
This is due to the grill elements turning on and off in order to regulate the oven temperature.
This will not affect the cooking results as long as the operation manual and cook book are followed correctly.
