If “NO” is the answer to any of the above questions, please check electrical outlet, fuse and/or circuit breaker. If they are functioning properly, CONTACT YOUR NEAREST SHARP AUTHORIZED SERVICER. A microwave oven should never be serviced by a “do-it-yourself” repair person.

NOTE: 1. If time appearing in the display is counting down very rapidly, check Demonstration Mode on page 27 and cancel.

2.After cooking, the cooling fan may switch on to cool the oven cavity. When the cooling fan is on, the display may show "NOW COOLING" and you will hear the sound of the cooling fan.

3.Your oven has a voltage check function. If the voltage rises above 7% or falls below 10% of the needed 208 volts, the cooking results may be unacceptable; therefore the oven automatically checks voltage at the first 5 seconds and will display a message twice if necessary. Although the oven will not interrupt the cooking program, follow the displayed message and pay attention to the food in the oven. Adjust the cooking time.
