WARNING  
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS : READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.  
Whenever the top heater, bottom heater or convection symbols are displayed the turntable, turntable support,  
racks, oven door, outer cabinet, oven cavity and especially bottom heater will become very hot. To prevent yourself  
from getting burnt use thick oven mittens.  
Do not put things on top of the oven or cover the outer cabinet.  
Accessible parts (e,g. oven door, turntable and rack) will become hot when in use.  
To avoid burns and scalds children should be kept away.  
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:  
a. Do not overcook food.  
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.  
c. Do not heat oil or fat for deep frying. The temperature of the oil cannot be controlled.  
d. Look at the oven from time to time when food is heated in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or  
other combustible materials for signs of smoke or burning.  
e. If materials inside the oven should ignite, or smoke is observed, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and  
disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.  
To reduce the risk of an explosion or delayed eruptive boiling:  
Your microwave oven is capable of heating food and beverages very quickly therefore, it is very important that you  
select the appropriate cooking time and power level for the type and quantity of food to be heated. If you are unsure  
of the cooking time and power level required, begin with low cooking times and power levels until the food is  
sufficiently heated evenly throughout.  
Additionally:  
a. Do not place sealed containers in the oven. Babies bottles fitted with a screw cap or teat are considered  
to be sealed containers.  
b. Do not use excessive amount of time.  
c. When boiling liquids in the oven, use a wide-mouthed container.  
d. Stand at least for 20 seconds at the end of cooking to avoid delayed eruptive boiling of liquids.  
e. Stirtheliquidbeforeandduringcooking.Useextremecarewhenhandlingthecontainerorinsertingaspoon  
or other utensil into the container.  
Thisovenisforhomefoodpreparationonlyandshouldonlybeusedforheating,cookinganddefrostingfoodandbeverage.  
It is not suitable for commercial, laboratory use, or heating therapeutic devices eg. Wheat bags.  
Never operate the oven whilst any object is caught or jammed between the door and the oven.  
Do not try to adjust or repair the oven yourself.  
It is hazardous for anyone other than a qualified service technician trained by SHARP to carry out any service or  
repair operation. Especially those which involve the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure  
to microwave energy are very hazardous.  
Donotoperatetheovenifitisnotworkingcorrectlyordamageduntilithasbeenrepairedbyaqualifiedservicetechnician  
trained by SHARP. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to:  
(1) Door (warped), (2) Hinges and Latches (broken or loosened), (3) Door Seals, Sealing Surfaces and oven cavity  
(buckled or deformed), (4) Burn marks on the door seal faces.  
Do not bump, or catch utensils, loose clothes and your accesories on the door safety latches when removing food  
from the oven.  
Never poke an object, particularly a metal object, through a grille or between the door and the oven while the oven  
is operating.  
Never tamper with or deactivate the door safety latches.  
Always use oven mittens to prevent burns when handling utensils that are in contact with hot food. Enough heat  
from the food can transfer through utensils to cause skin burns.  
Should the power supply cord become damaged, it must be replaced with a special cord supplied by a SERVICE  
CENTRE APPROVED BY SHARP. And it must be replaced by a qualified service technician trained by SHARP.  
If the oven lamp fails please consult your dealer or a qualified service technician trained by SHARP.  
Avoid steam burns by directing steam away from the face and hands.  
Slowly lift the furthest edge of a dish's cover and microwave plastic wrap and carefully open popcorn and oven  
cooking bags away from the face.  
Makesurethatthepowersupplycordisundamaged,andthatitdoesnotrunundertheovenoroveranyhotsurfaces  
or sharp edges.  
Do not place anything on the outer cabinet because the microwave oven will become very hot during the operation.  
Do not store food or any other items inside the oven.  
Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls during cooking.  
Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the  
child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.  
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.  
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental  
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction  
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
1. Remove all packing materials from the oven cavity, (do not remove the waveguide cover), and the feature  
sticker from the outside of the door, if there is one. Check the unit for any damage, such as a misaligned door,  
damaged door seals around the door or dents inside the oven cavity or on the door. If there is any damage,  
please do not operate the oven until it has been checked by a SERVICE CENTRE APPROVED BY SHARP  
and repaired, if necessary.  
2. Accessories provided  
1) Turntable  
2) Low rack  
3) High rack  
4) Combined operation manual and cookbook  
3. Since the door may become hot during cooking, you should place or mount the oven so that the bottom of  
the oven is 85 cm or more above floor. You should also keep children away from the door to prevent them  
burning themselves.  
This oven is designed to be used on a countertop, in a cabinet or built-in. It should not be installed in any area  
where excessive heat and steam are generated, for example, next to a conventional oven unit. The oven  
should be installed so as not to block ventilation openings.  
For R-890N(S)/(W): Allow a space of at least 40cm on the top, 5cm on both sides and at the rear of the oven  
for adequate air circulation. When installing in a cabinet, the minimum inside dimension of the cabinet should  
be 620mm(W) x 709mm(H) x 536mm(D).  
When building the oven into a cabinet or wall, a Sharp built-in kit model number EBR-47ST for R-890N(S)  
and EBR-5000(W) for R-890N(W) are available which enable the microwave oven to be integrated within a  
kitchen, the kits are available from your retailer. Read carefully the installation instructions for the built- in kit  
before installation. This built-in kit has been tested according to Australian Standards. Sharp does not  
recommend the use of any other built-in kit.

WARNING: The electrical outlet must be readily accessible so that the unit can be unplugged easily in  
an emergency.  
4. Neither the manufacturer nor the distributors can accept any liability for damage to the machine or personal  
injury for failure to observe the correct electrical connecting procedure.  
The A.C. voltage must be single phase 230-240V, 50Hz.  
5. This appliance must be earthed.  
6. Operate the oven from a general purpose domestic outlet. If a generator is used, do not operate the oven with  
non-sinusoidal outputs.  
7. Before using top or bottom heater for the first time, operate the oven without food for 20 minutes using both  
heaters. This will allow the oil that is used for rust protection to be burned off.

Never touch the grills when they are hot.  
NOTES:  
• The waveguide cover is fragile. Care should be taken when cleaning inside the oven to ensure that it is not  
damaged.  
• After cooking fatty foods without a cover, always clean the cavity and especially the grill heating elements  
thoroughly, these must be dry and free from grease. Built-up grease may overheat and begin to smoke or  
catch fire.  
• Always operate the oven with the turntable fitted correctly. This promotes thorough, even cooking.  
A badly fitted turntable may rattle, may not rotate properly and could cause damage to the oven.  
• The turntable rotates clockwise or anti-clockwise. The rotary direction may change each time you start the  
oven. This does not affect cooking performance.

CARE AND CLEANING  
Disconnect the power supply cord before cleaning or leave the door open to inactivate the oven.  
Before cleaning ensure oven cavity is cool.  
OVEN INTERIOR:  
• It is important to clean the interior of your microwave oven after each use.  
• To clean the oven interior, use a mild detergent solution, such as washing-up liquid, with warm water on a soft  
cloth.  
• Heat up your oven regularly by using the grill. Remaining food or fat splashed can cause smoke or bad smell.  
• Food and liquid splashes will build-up on the oven walls and ceiling. If grease, fat and food debris is allowed  
to build-up in the oven interior it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.  
• Keep the waveguide coverclean at all times. The waveguide cover is constructed from a fragile material and  
should be cleaned with care (follow the cleaning instructions above).  
NOTE: Excessive soaking may cause disintegration of the waveguide cover. The waveguide cover is a  
consumable part and without regular cleaning, will need to be replaced.  
• Food will release steam during cooking and cause condensation inside the oven and door. It is important to  
wipe the oven dry. A build-up of condensation will eventually lead to rust forming on the oven interior.  
Do not allow grease or dirt to build-up on the door seals or areas around the door. This may prevent  
the door from closing correctly and may cause a leakage of microwaves (follow the cleaning  
instructions below).  
• Ensure the accessories are cleaned after every use with a mild washing-up liquid solution and dried. This will  
prevent the build-up of grease and food debris. The accessories are dishwasher safe.  
Clean the oven at regular intervals and remove any food deposits. Failure to maintain the oven in a  
clean condition could lead to a deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the  
appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.  
OUTER CABINET:  
• Wipe the outside of the microwave oven with a mild detergent solution, such as washing-up liquid, with warm  
water on a soft cloth.  
• The control panel must be wiped clean and dried with the door open, therefore inactivating the oven.  
DOOR:  
• To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door, the door seals and adjacent parts with a soft,  
damp cloth.  
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can  
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.  
NOTES:  
• Never use spray cleaners, oven pads or abrasive scourers as these damage the surface of the oven.  
• A steam cleaner should not be used.  
• Take care not to let soapy water drip through the small holes in the oven walls and the cavity floor. Excess  
water spillage through these holes will cause damage to the oven interior.  
• Slight tarnishing of the oven cavity, around the area of the grills, is likely to occur. This is normal and will not  
affect the ovens performance.  
Warning:  
Before cleaning, make sure the oven cavity, door, oven cabinet, accessories and especially the grills are  
completely cool.

1. Use thick oven mittens when removing the food or turntable from the oven to  
PREVENT BURNS. Because the oven cavity, door, turntable, turntable  
support, racks, dishes and especially bottom heater will become very hot.

2. For best results, preheat to required temperature with the turntable in the oven.  
Add food after preheating.  
3. Metal cookware can be used. Round pizza trays are excellent cooking utensils  
for cooking.

HELPFUL HINTS  
MICROWAVE COOKING  
1. ARRANGEMENT  
8. SIZE  
Arrange foods carefully. Place thickest areas toward outside of dish.  
Eg. Arrange vegetables in a shallow dish in the following way:  
Hard Vegetables around the outside, Soft Vegetables  
in the centre, Medium Vegetables in-between.  
Small pieces cook faster than large ones. To speed cooking, cut pieces  
smaller than 5 cm so microwaves can penetrate to the centre from all sides.  
For even cooking, make all the pieces the same size.  
9. DENSITY  
2. TURNING  
Thedepthtowhichmicrowavespenetratefoodvariesdependingonthefood's  
density. Porous foods like minced beef or mashed potatoes microwave faster  
than dense ones like steak or whole potatoes.  
Foods such as poultry and joints of meat should be turned over after half the  
cooking time.  
3. COVERING  
10. FAT AND BONE  
Cover foods in the microwave if you would normally cover the food in your  
ordinary oven, or to retain moisture. Cover foods such as Vegetables, Casse-  
roles, or when Reheating.  
Marbling within meat, or a thin, even layer of fat on a roast, speeds cooking.  
Large fatty areas or excess drippings in dish attract energy away from meat,  
and slows cooking. Centre bones do not affect cooking, but bone on the side  
of meat conducts heat to the areas next to it.  
Use to cover foods:  
11. STARTING TEMPERATURE

Cooking times in this book are based on normal storage temperatures. Since  
rooms, refrigerators and freezers differ in temperature, check for doneness at  
the minimum time.

12. QUANTITY  
TOMATO  
EGG  
5. SHIELDING  
Microwavecookingtimesaredirectlyrelatedtotheamountoffoodintheoven.  
Because energy is absorbed by the food itself, one potato or a single piece of  
chicken cooks rapidly. When the energy is divided among several items,  
cooking takes more time.  
Shield using small pieces of aluminium foil to shield thin areas of meat, fish and  
poultry or edges of cakes to prevent overcooking.  
13. CONDENSATION  
FISH  
CHICKEN  
Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. The humidity and  
moisture in food will influence the amount of condensation in the oven.  
Generally, covered foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered  
foods. Ensure that the ventilation openings are not blocked.  
6. STANDING TIME  
Standing time is important. After cooking or defrosting ensure adequate  
standing time. This allows the food to continue cooking or heating. Refer to  
cooking guides for each menu or according to manufacturers instructions.  
14.GENERAL  
7. STIRRING  
Your microwave oven is capable of heating food and beverages very quickly  
therefore, it is very important that you select the appropriate cooking time and  
power level for the type and quantity of food to be heated. If you are unsure of  
the cooking time and power level required, begin with low cooking times and  
power levels until the food is sufficiently heated evenly throughout.
