A:AnswerGreat question! We would like to clarify a few things regarding the timer feature of the R309YW Sharp microwave. You will be able microwave items for specific timeframes. The microwave does come equipped with a timer. The microwave signal audio beep for timer end cannot be turned off.
A:AnswerThank you for your recent inquiry in regards to the vent on the R309YK. We are happy to help. The vent on this microwave is on the left side and for proper ventilation of this unit we would recommend 3" of clearance on the top back and sites of the microwave.
A:AnswerGreat question! The glass tray, also called a turntable tray, is the circular-shaped, clear glass tray that you set your plate of food on to heat it. The roller guide is a plastic piece under the tray that keeps it turning so that the heat is equally distributed to your food.
A:AnswerI reread the manual, and found if you follow the instructions EXACTLY, you CAN set a specific time. Press POWER, then enter the time you want (like 2 - 4 for 24 sec), then press START. Easy-peasy.
A:AnswerI have had mine for 3 years and hate it every time I try to use it. Things have to be done longer than recommended on the package and you cannot heat multiple things in a row. Mine gets very hot then shuts off. My husband purchesed one for work first and then we bought ours for home. Only good for a single person to heat up tea water or one plate at any given time of day. Do yourself a favor and choose a different one.
