INFORMATION MESSAGEFill reservoir.* There is not enough water in the reservoir for the chosen cooking operation. Remove reservoir and fill with water to the MAX mark.

Wait until oven is cool.The oven is too hot to use either DEFROST or PROOF. Remove the food from the oven and allow oven to cool until display clears.
Descaling necessaryFollow step-by-step instructions for descaling on page 31. When the drained water in the base tray has white or gray grains in it, the oven needs descaling. The frequency of descaling will de- pend on the hardness of your water; the harder the water the more often descaling will be needed. If "Descaling necessary" appears frequently, you may use distilled water instead of tap water. This will reduce, but not eliminate, the need to descale.
Water cannot be pumped.* Remove the reservoir and check that it is filled, the air holes are not clogged, the reservoir filter is not clogged and that there is no damage to the reservoir. When filled to the MAX mark, position the reservoir correctly and push firmly into place. Reprogram and touch START. * If message is still in the display, follow step-by-step instructions for descaling on page 31. * If message is still in the display, call or carry-in the oven to a Sharp Authorized Servicer.
