SENSOR COOKING
Electrolux’s Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the
vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food as it heats. The
sensor adjusts the cooking times and power level for various foods
and quantities.
Using Sensor Settings:
1. After microwave oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before using
SENSOR COOKING.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of
the microwave oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry
cloth or paper towel.
3. The microwave oven works with foods at normal storage
temperature. For example, popcorn would be at room
temperature.
4. Any SENSOR COOKING
selection can be programmed with
More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 14.
5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the chart should be
cooked following the guidelines in any microwave cookbook.
6. During the first part of SENSOR COOKING
, food name will
appear on the display. Do not open the microwave oven door
or touch Clear/Off during this part of the cooking cycle. The
measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error
message will appear. To continue cooking, touch the Clear/Off
pad and cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food,
remainder of cooking time will appear. Door may be opened
when remaining cooking time appears on the display. At this
time, you may stir or season food, as desired.
7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when popping
popcorn, the microwave oven will turn off, and the correct time
of day will be displayed. If the sensor does not detect vapor
properly when cooking other foods, ERROR will be displayed,
and the microwave oven will turn off.
8. Check food for temperature after cooking. If additional time is
needed, continue to cook manually.
9. SENSOR COOKING
can only be entered within 3 minutes
after cooking, opening and closing the door or touching the
Clear/Off
pad.
10. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch
Help pad when the HELP
indicator is lighted in the display.
Covering Foods:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover recommended
in the SENSOR COOKING CHART for these foods.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for microwave
cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approximately 1/2 inch to
remain uncovered to allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should
not touch food.
3. Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap under dish
to secure. If dish is wider than paper, overlap two pieces at least
one inch to cover.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to escape
away from you.
EXAMPLE:
You can cook many foods by touching just one pad. You don’t need
to calculate cooking time or power level.
• Suppose you want to reheat canned chili.
Touch Reheat pad.
When sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food, remainder of
reheating time will appear.

PROCEDURE
Use only popcorn packaged for microwave oven use. Try several brands to decide which
you like. Do not try to pop unpopped kernels.
Touch Popcorn pad.
Place in dish or casserole slightly larger than amount to be reheated. Flatten, if possible.
Cover with lid, plastic wrap or wax paper. Use covers such as plastic wrap or lids with
larger quantities of more dense foods such as stews. After reheating, stir well, if possible.
Re-cover and allow to stand 2 to 3 minutes. Foods should be very hot. If not, continue to
heat with variable power and time.
Pierce. Place on paper-towel-lined turntable. After cooking, remove from microwave oven,
wrap in aluminum foil and let stand 5 to 10 minutes.
Wash and place in casserole. Add no water if vegetables have just been washed. Cover
with lid for tender vegetables. Use plastic wrap for tender-crisp vegetables. Touch Fresh
Veggie pad. After cooking, stir, if possible. Let stand, covered, for 2 to 5 minutes.
