DISH CHECK. If you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave
on HIGH for 30 seconds. If the dish becomes very hot, do NOT use it for microwaving.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you
purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct
doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures when using microwave-only cooking.
Sharp is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.
