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 pages 27 and 28 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. See page 10 for complete instructions.

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.

The fan will automatically start when heat rises from range surface units or burners and when convection, high mix, low mix or the broil settings are used.

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. Ventilation openings 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 850 watts 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.

One of the standout features of these microwaves is the integration of inverter technology. This groundbreaking technology allows for a consistent and even distribution of heat, ensuring that food is cooked thoroughly without overcooking or uneven hot spots.

The flexible turntable adjustment allows users to maximize interior space for various dish sizes.

The R-1870 series also features sensor cooking technology. This intelligent system detects moisture released by the food during cooking and automatically adjusts cooking times and power levels. This ensures optimal cooking results without the need for constant monitoring, saving time and effort in the kitchen.

User convenience is further enhanced by the user-friendly control panel, which includes pre-programmed settings for popular dishes. This simplifies the cooking process, allowing users to prepare meals with the push of a button. The models also feature a large, easy-to-read display that shows cooking settings and times, making operation straightforward.

In terms of design, the Sharp R-1870 models come in various finishes, including sleek black and stainless steel options, to complement modern kitchen aesthetics. The units are compact, making them suitable for countertops with limited space.

Safety features, such as child lock functionality and a time countdown, are also integral to the design of these microwaves. This adds peace of mind for families with young children or for those who multitask in the kitchen.

All in all, the Sharp R-1870, R-1871, R-1870BK, and R-1872 microwaves represent a fusion of technology and practicality, catering to the needs of today’s busy home cooks.
