ABOUT YOUR OVEN

This Operation Manual is valuable: read it carefully and always save it for reference.

A good microwave cookbook is a valuable asset. Check it for microwave cooking principles, techniques, hints and recipes. See page 19 for ordering the Ultimate Accessory, the SHARP CAROUSEL MICROWAVE COOKBOOK.

NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support 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%, 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 cooking. 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 1200 watts (R-508F) or 1000 watts (R-501F, R-404F, R-401F) by using the IEC Test Procedure. In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.

R-508F, R-401F, R-404F, R-501F specifications

The GE R-501F, R-404F, R-401F, and R-508F are refrigerants specifically designed for various industrial and commercial applications. Each refrigerant possesses unique characteristics that cater to specific refrigeration needs, and they are widely used in systems ranging from refrigeration units to air conditioning systems.

The GE R-501F is noted for its efficiency in medium and low-temperature systems. It has a low global warming potential compared to some traditional refrigerants, making it a more environmentally friendly option. Its thermodynamic properties allow for improved energy savings and reduced operational costs. The R-501F is particularly effective in commercial refrigeration, such as display cases and walk-in coolers, due to its capacity to maintain low temperatures effectively.

R-404F, on the other hand, is a blend of hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants that replace R-404A and is designed to offer better energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact. Its composition results in low GWP and excellent performance across a wide range of operating temperatures. R-404F is widely utilized in transport refrigeration, commercial freezers, and HVAC systems. The refrigerant is known for its stable performance and compatibility with various lubricants, making it an attractive option for many applications.

The GE R-401F is another refrigerant designed for low-temperature applications, especially in food refrigeration and commercial cooling. It is formulated to have a lower environmental impact with a balanced thermodynamic performance. R-401F shows minimal glide, which reduces the complexities in refrigerant charge management and enhances system efficiency throughout its lifecycle.

R-508F is specially formulated for ultra-low temperature applications. It is a blend usually used in cascade refrigeration systems where extremely low temperatures are required, such as deep freeze storage and certain laboratory applications. R-508F has excellent thermodynamic properties, including a low boiling point and high efficiency, allowing it to operate effectively even under extremely low temperature conditions.

Each of these refrigerants incorporates advanced technologies aimed at maximizing efficiency while minimizing environmental impact, aligning with global efforts to transition to more sustainable refrigerants. These characteristics make the GE R-501F, R-404F, R-401F, and R-508F essential components in modern refrigeration technology, catering to diverse needs across various industries.
