TURNTABLE ON/OFF

NOTE:

For most cooking, the turntable should be on; however the turntable can be turned off so that it does not rotate when extra large dishes, such as the popular 13"x9"x2" glass utility casserole, are used. The casserole should be placed on the turntable so that it is level.

Suppose you want to cook lasagna in a 13"x9"x2" casserole for 45 minutes on 40% power.

Touch START/TOUCH ON pad.

The door can be opened for checking food and the turntable will stay in the off position. After checking, close door and touch START/TOUCH ON.

The turntable will stay off for one minute after door is opened when time-of-day appears in the display. It is possible to reprogram the oven during that minute without touching the TURNTABLE ON/OFF pad. The display always indicates whether the turntable is off or on.

THE TURNTABLE SHOULD ALWAYS BE ON WHEN USING THE SPECIAL FEATURES. On/Off function can be used with manual cooking modes and Sensor Reheat.Turntable off condition will automatically change to on condition when you select auto cooking except Sensor Reheat and CompuBake.

When cooking large quantities of food which cannot be stirred, it is best to use a lower power level such as 40 or 50%. You may speed cooking of large amounts by programming 5 to 10 minutes on 100% power (HIGH) followed by the desired time on lower power. See page 23 for how to program multiple sequences. You may wish to reverse a large casserole once during cooking; simply open door, reposition casserole, close door and touch START/TOUCH ON.

The Sharp R-1870, R-1871, R-1870BK, and R-1872 microwaves are advanced kitchen appliances designed for efficiency and convenience in meal preparation. These models are known for their innovative features and technologies that enhance everyday cooking.

One of the standout features of these microwaves is the integration of inverter technology. This groundbreaking technology allows for a consistent and even distribution of heat, ensuring that food is cooked thoroughly without overcooking or uneven hot spots.

The flexible turntable adjustment allows users to maximize interior space for various dish sizes.

The R-1870 series also features sensor cooking technology. This intelligent system detects moisture released by the food during cooking and automatically adjusts cooking times and power levels. This ensures optimal cooking results without the need for constant monitoring, saving time and effort in the kitchen.

User convenience is further enhanced by the user-friendly control panel, which includes pre-programmed settings for popular dishes. This simplifies the cooking process, allowing users to prepare meals with the push of a button. The models also feature a large, easy-to-read display that shows cooking settings and times, making operation straightforward.

In terms of design, the Sharp R-1870 models come in various finishes, including sleek black and stainless steel options, to complement modern kitchen aesthetics. The units are compact, making them suitable for countertops with limited space.

Safety features, such as child lock functionality and a time countdown, are also integral to the design of these microwaves. This adds peace of mind for families with young children or for those who multitask in the kitchen.

All in all, the Sharp R-1870, R-1871, R-1870BK, and R-1872 microwaves represent a fusion of technology and practicality, catering to the needs of today’s busy home cooks. With their inverter cooking capabilities, sensor technology, and spacious designs, these models are a smart addition to any kitchen, making meal preparation easier and more enjoyable.
