INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW

ABOUT YOUR OVEN

This Operation Manual is valuable: read it carefully and
always save it for reference.
The Sharp SuperSteam Oven Cookbook is a
valuable asset. Check it frequently for cooking
principles, techniques, hints and recipes.
Be aware that, unlike microwave-only ovens, Super
Steam Ovens have a tendency to become hot during
cooking with SuperSteam Convection, Convection
or Steam.
The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be
used to dry clothes or newspapers.

ABOUT COOKING OPTIONS

Your oven has a variety of cooking options that are divided into automatic and manual. SuperSteam Convection,
Steam and Microwave have both automatic and manual choices. Convection has only manual.

SuperSteam Convection

SuperSteam is combined with convection heating, which can roast or broil foods and allow excess fats to be
removed. These foods retain moisture. Meats and poultry are brown, juicy and flavorful.

Steam

Steam-only gently cooks foods such as vegetables, fish, seafood and poached eggs while retaining moisture,
natural flavors and nutrients.

Convection

Convection browns, bakes, broils and crisps a wide variety of foods. Cookies, cakes, breads, muffins, biscuits and
rolls can be baked on one or two levels. There are no automatic settings for convection. Refer to your SuperSteam
Cookbook or to Convection in Manual Operations.

Microwave

Microwave is fast and convenient for cooking, defrosting and popping popcorn. With Sensor Reheat, Sensor Cook
and Sensor Popcorn, it is unnecessary to enter amount. The sensor eliminates guesswork.
