53 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE This oven is designed to be used on a countertop only. It is not designed to be built-in to a wall or cabinet. See page EN-3 for the installation. The oven door may become hot during cooking. Place or mount the oven so that the bottom of the oven is 85 cm or more above the floor. Keep children away from the door to prevent them from burning themselves. Ensure there is a minimum of free space above the oven of 1 cm. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. WARNING: Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use. WARNING: When the appliance is operated in the GRILL, GRILL MIX, STEAM and AUTOMATIC operations (except AUTO DEFROST), children should only use the oven under adult supervision due to the temperature generated. WARNING: Accessible parts may become hot during use. Young children should be kept away. WARNING: If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a qualified service technician trained by SHARP. WARNING: Never adjust, repair or modify the oven by yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other than a qualified service technician trained by SHARP to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. If the power supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced with a special cord. The exchange must be made by a qualified service technician trained by SHARP. WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the container. Do not cook eggs in their shells, and whole hard boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave cooking has ended. To cook or reheat eggs which have not been scrambled or mixed, pierce the yolks and the whites, or the eggs may explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before reheating them in the microwave oven. Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in the oven. See Page EN-6. Use only microwave safe containers and utensils on microwave modes. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars must be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns. The door, outer cabinet, oven cavity, dishes, accessories and especially the grill heating elements will become very hot during operation. Care should be taken to avoid touching these areas. To prevent burns, always use thick oven gloves. Before cleaning make sure they are not hot. When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the oven and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames. The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass. Steam cleaner is not to be used. See instructions for cleaning door seals, cavities and adjacent parts on page EN-0. Other warnings 1. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity: a. No other liquid than room temperature water suitable for drinking (filtered) can be poured into the water tank. b. The oven should not be left unattended during operation. High oven temperature or long cooking time may overheat foods resulting in a fire. c. Do not overcook food. d. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven. e. Do not heat oil or fat for deep frying. The temperature of the oil cannot be controlled. f. Do not use containers made of synthetic material for cooking. They could melt at high temperature. EN 1

54 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS g. Do not use plastic containers if the oven is still hot because they may melt. Plastic containers must not be used unless the container manufacturer claims it is suitable. h. Do not store food or any other items inside the oven. i. When alcoholic beverages are added when roasting or cooking cakes and sweets, there is a risk that vapours released by the alcohol may catch fire upon coming into contact with the electrical heating element. Attend the oven closely during cooking.. To reduce the risk of an explosion or delayed eruptive boiling, care should be taken when handling the container. Your oven is capable of heating food and beverages very quickly with microwave, therefore it is very important that you select the appropriate cooking time and power level for the type and quantity of food to be heated. If you are unsure of the cooking time and power level required, begin with low cooking times and power levels until the food is sufficiently heated evenly throughout. Additionally: a. Do not place sealed containers in the oven. Babies bottles fitted with a screw cap or teat are considered to be sealed containers. b. Do not use excessive amount of time. c. When boiling liquids in the oven, use a wide-mouthed container. d. Stand at least for 0 seconds at the end of cooking to avoid delayed eruptive boiling of liquids. e. Stir the liquid before and during cooking. Use extreme care when handling the container or inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container. 3. This oven is for home food preparation only and should only be used for heating, cooking and defrosting food and beverage. It is not suitable for commercial, laboratory use, or heating therapeutic devices eg. Wheat bags. 4. Never operate the oven whilst any object is caught or jammed between the door and the oven. 5. Handle with care when removing items from the oven so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories do not touch the latches. 6. Never poke an object, particularly a metal object, through a grille or between the door and the oven while the oven is operating. 7. Never tamper with or deactivate the latches. 8. Always use oven gloves 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. 9. If the oven lamp fails please consult your dealer or a qualified service technician trained by SHARP. 10. Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands. Slowly lift the furthest edge of a dish's cover including microwave plastic wrap etc., and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face. 11. Make sure that the power supply cord is undamaged, and that it does not run under the oven or over any hot surfaces or sharp edges. 1. Use care when opening door. To avoid burns from escaping heat and steam, let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. 13. Do not place anything on the outer cabinet because the oven will become very hot during operation. 14. To avoid burns, always test the food and container temperature and stir before serving. Pay special attention to the temperature of food and drink given to babies, children and the elderly. Do not drink beverages or soup without checking the container's temperature. Take extra caution when handling the container because it becomes very hot. 15. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking. 16. Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear cabinet, oven cavity, air-vent openings, accessories and dishes because the escaping steam from the ventilation cover during operation becomes hot. 17. Do not touch around the oven lamps directly. This part will become hot when the oven lamp is on. 18. When the oven is in use, ventilate a room where the oven is installed. e.g. open a window or switch a kitchen ventilation fan on. 19. Do not operate the oven if the water tank cracks and water leaks. Please contact a SERVICE CENTRE APPROVED BY SHARP. 0.
