DISH CHECK. If you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. If the dish becomes very hot, DO NOT use it for microwaving.

ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Sharp is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.

One of the standout features of these models is their advanced Sensor Cooking technology, which takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.

They come with a generous capacity that allows users to prepare large dishes or multiple items at once. The stylish finish and modern aesthetics also contribute to their appeal, enhancing the overall look of any kitchen.

Another key characteristic is the combination of microwave and convection cooking capabilities in some models. This feature enables users to achieve browning and crispiness similar to traditional ovens, making the R-1875 and R1874 series particularly versatile for baking and roasting. Users can switch between microwave and convection modes or use both together for quicker and more efficient cooking.

Additionally, these models are equipped with user-friendly controls. The intuitive touch panel allows for easy programming, providing quick access to various cooking functions and pre-set options. Users can quickly select defrost settings, reheat options, and even cook specific dishes with the push of a button.

Safety features are also a priority with Sharp microwaves. Models like the R1875T and R-1874 come with child safety locks, ensuring that little hands cannot accidentally operate the microwave. This is complemented by a range of other safety measures, such as overheat protection and automatic shutoff functions.
