Unpacking and Examining Your Oven

Remove:

1.all packing materials from inside the oven cavity; however, DO NOT REMOVE THE WAVEGUIDE COVER, which is located on the right cavity wall. Read enclosures and SAVE the Operation Manual.

2.the feature sticker, if there is one, from the outside of the door.

Check the oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing surfaces, broken or loose door hinges and latches and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any dam- age, do not operate the oven and contact your dealer or SHARP AUTHORIZED SERVICER.

Choosing a Location for Your Oven on the counter

You will use the oven frequently so plan its location for ease of use. It’s wise, if possible, to have counter space on at least one side of the oven. Allow at least 2 inches on the sides, top and at the rear of the oven for air circulation.

Choosing a Location for Your Oven if built-in

Your microwave oven can be built into a cabinet or wall using a Sharp built-in kit. Built-in kits are available to fit 27” or 30” cabinets.
