Why does condensation form in my Sharp R-860M Microwave Oven?
Condensation forms because the oven cavity is typically colder than the food being cooked. Steam produced during cooking condenses on the colder surface. The amount of steam depends on the food's water content; foods like potatoes have high moisture. Condensation trapped in the door glass should clear within a few hours.

When the oven is working, air circulates within the cavity. The door does not form an airtight seal, so air may escape from the door.
