DEFROSTING GUIDE

▶Do not defrost covered meat. Covering might allow cooking to take place. Always remove outer wrap and tray. Use only containers that are microwave-safe.

▶Begin defrosting whole poultry breast-side-down. Begin defrosting roasts fat-side-down.

▶The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular shapes defrost more quickly than a deep block.

▶After 1/3 of the defrost time has elapsed, check the food. Toy may wish to turn over, break apart, rearrange or remove thawed portions of the food.

▶During defrost, the oven will prompt you to turn the over. At this point, open oven door and check the food. Follow the techniques listed below for optimum defrost results.

Then, close oven door, touch the START pad to complete defrosting.

▶When defrosted, food should be cool, but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to microwave oven very briefly, or let stand a few minutes. After defrosting, allow food to stand 5-60 minutes if there are any icy areas.

Poultry and fish may be placed under running cool water until defrosted

Turn over : Roast, ribs, whole poultry, turkey

breasts, hot dogs, sausages, steaks, or chops. Rearrange : Break apart or separate steaks, chops,

hamburger patties, ground meat, chicken or seafood

pieces, chunks of meat such as stew beef.

Shield : Use small strips of aluminum foil to protect thin areas or edges of unevenly shaped foods such as chicken wings. To prevent arcing, do not allow foil to come within 1-inch of oven walls or door.

Remove : To prevent cooking, thawed portions should be removed from the oven at this point. This may shorten defrost time for food weighing less than 3 lbs.(1350g).

The Sharp R-309 series of microwaves, including the R-309YK, R-309Y, R-309YW, and R-309YV models, are designed to cater to a variety of cooking needs, combining innovative technologies with user-friendly features. These models stand out for their versatility, efficiency, and ease of use, making them suitable for both home cooking and professional settings.

One of the key features of the R-309 series is the inverter technology. This technology provides a steady stream of cooking power at all temperature settings, allowing for more precise cooking results. Unlike traditional microwave ovens that cycle on and off, inverter technology ensures that food is heated evenly, reducing the risk of overcooking or cold spots. This feature is particularly beneficial for delicate tasks such as defrosting meat or cooking fish, where temperature control is crucial.

The R-309 series incorporates a spacious interior, allowing for the accommodation of large dishes and containers. The user-friendly control panel features a digital display, making it easy to set cooking times and power levels. Additionally, the series includes pre-programmed settings for various foods, enabling rapid cooking with just the press of a button. This convenience is complemented by the series' quick-start function, which allows users to immediately set the microwave for a set time with a single press.

Another notable technology in these models is the multi-stage cooking feature. This functionality allows users to program multiple cooking steps into a single cycle, making it possible to execute complex recipes seamlessly. For instance, a dish can be set to microwave, then grill, and finally keep warm, all without manual intervention between stages.

Moreover, the R-309 series models come equipped with an easy-to-clean interior, designed to resist stains and odors. This practical design aids in maintaining hygiene and ensures that the microwave remains in good condition over time. Safety features such as child lock options also enhance usability, making these models suitable for families.

In summary, the Sharp R-309YK, R-309Y, R-309YW, and R-309YV microwaves are excellent choices for those seeking reliable, technologically advanced appliances. With features like inverter cooking, a spacious interior, user-friendly controls, and multi-stage cooking capabilities, they cater to a wide range of culinary requirements while ensuring efficiency and convenience in the kitchen.
