MANUAL DEFROST

If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the COMPU DEFROST or SUPER DEFROST CHARTS or is above or below the limits in the AMOUNT column on the COMPU DEFROST or SUPER DEFROST CHARTS, you need to defrost manually.

You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously cooked, by using 30% power. Follow the exact procedure found on page 15. Estimate defrosting time, enter it. Then touch Power Level on the Touch Screen and select 30%.

For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the

rule of thumb is approximately four minutes per pound. For example, defrost four minutes for one pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.

Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting time, program the oven in one minute increments on 30% power until totally defrosted.

When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to place in a microwave-safe dish.

Sharp's Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food as it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and power level for various foods and quantities.

Using Sensor Settings

1.After oven is plugged in, wait two minutes before using any Sensor setting.

2.Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.

3.The oven works with foods at normal storage temperature. For example, popcorn would be at room temperature.

4.Any Sensor Cooking or Reheating selection can be programmed with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 34.

5.More or less food than the quantity listed in the chart should be cooked following the guidelines in any microwave cookbook.

6.During the first part of Sensor Cooking or Reheating, SENSING will appear on the display. Do not open the oven door or press STOP/CLEAR pad during this part of the cooking cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error message will appear. To continue cooking, touch the STOP/CLEAR pad and cook manually.

When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food, remainder of cooking or reheating time will appear. The door may be opened when remaining cooking time appears on the display. At this time, you may stir or season food, as desired.

7.If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when cooking or reheating foods, error messages will be displayed, and the oven will turn off.

8.Check food for correct temperature after cooking. If additional time is needed, continue to cook manually.

Covering Foods

Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover recommended in the procedure for these foods.

1.Casserole lid.

2.Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approximately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch food.

3.Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper, overlap two pieces at least one inch to cover.

Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to escape away from you.
