The heating category (a letter A to E) developed by MAFF (Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food) with microwave oven and food manufacturers indicates the ability of the oven to heat small quantities of food (up to 500g [1lb 2oz]). It does not represent the general performance of the oven.

Food packs carry cooking instructions for heating categories A to E. Follow instructions for the letter corresponding to the oven’s heating category. The higher the output power and heating category of the oven the less heating time is required as shown opposite.

HOW YOUR OVEN WORKS

Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those used for TV and radio signals.

Electrical energy is converted into microwave energy, which is directed into the oven cavity via a waveguide. To prevent food and grease entering the wave guide it is protected by the waveguide cover.

Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of this the oven cavity is made of metal and there is a fine metal mesh on the door. During cooking the microwaves bounce off the sides of the oven cavity at random.

Microwaves will pass through certain materials, such as glass and plastic, to heat the food. (See ‘Suitable Cookware’ on page 32).

Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves which cause them to vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way your hands get warm when you rub them together.

The outer areas of the food are heated by the microwave energy, then the heat moves to the centre by conduction, as it does in conventional cooking. It is important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating.

Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically stops producing microwaves.

Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables the heat to disperse equally throughout the food.

This capability ensures that foods retain their texture and flavor, making it ideal for delicate items like fish or sauces that may otherwise suffer from uneven cooking.

The microwave boasts a generous capacity of 25 liters, making it suitable for various cooking tasks.

This user-friendly interface simplifies the cooking process, making it accessible for users of all skill levels. The intuitive control panel, coupled with a digital display, ensures that users can easily monitor cooking times and settings.

Moreover, the microwave features Sharp's patented "Carousel" turntable system. This innovative design ensures that food is heated evenly by rotating during the cooking process. This is particularly beneficial for larger dishes that require uniform heating.

Safety is also a critical aspect of the R-890SLM design. The integrated child lock feature prevents accidental operation, making it a reliable choice for families with young children. Additionally, the microwave is equipped with an easy-to-clean interior, which allows for hassle-free maintenance and hygiene.
