Using the microwave sensor cooking features.
The Sensor Features detect the increasing humidity released during cooking. The oven automatically adjusts the
cooking time to various types and amounts of food.
Sensor Cooking
■ The proper containers and covers are
essential for best sensor cooking.
■ Always use microwave-safe containers
and cover them with lids or vented
plastic wrap. Never use tight sealing
plastic containers—they can prevent
steam from escaping and cause food
to overcook.
■ Be sure the outside of the cooking
containers and the inside of the
microwave oven are dry before
placing food in the oven. Beads
of moisture turning into steam
can mislead the sensor.

Follow package instructions, using
Time Cook if the package is less

How to Adjust the Popcorn Program to
Provide a Shorter or Longer Cook Time:

you can add or subtract 20–30 seconds to
the automatic popping time.
To add time:
