One Touch Sensor Cooking
A sensor in the microwave oven detects humidity released from
the food and automatically sets a cooking time based on the
selected pad.
Use the following chart as a guide for the ONE TOUCH pads.
*Do not use regular paper bags or glassware. Listen for popping
to slow to 1 pop every 1 or 2 seconds, then stop the cycle. Do
not try to pop unpopped kernels. Use fresh bags of popcorn for
optimal results. Cooking results may vary by brand and fat
content. For bag sizes not listed in this section, follow directions
on package. If using a microwave popcorn popper, follow
manufacturer’s instructions.
To Use One Touch Sensor Cooking:
Before using, make sure the microwave oven has been plugged
in for at least 3 minutes, the room temperature is not above 95°F
(35°C), and the microwave oven cavity is dry.
REMEMBER: If the door is opened while the sensor is “sensing”
(sensor animation active in the display), the sensor cycle will be
canceled.
To Use Baked Potato and Meal Reheat: Place item on turntable
and close the door.
1. Touch BAKED POTATO or MEAL REHEAT.
The microwave oven will automatically turn on. The sensor
animation will briefly appear, followed by the estimated
remaining cook time.
Doneness may be adjusted during the first 20 seconds of
cooking by turning the dial. See “Doneness” section.
The remaining cook time may be recalculated several times
during cooking. Each time, the sensor animation will appear
for 3 seconds, followed by the new remaining time.
When the cycle ends, “END” will appear in the display, and
the end-of-cycle tones will sound, followed by reminder
tones.
2. Touch CANCEL/OFF or open the door to clear the display
and/or stop reminder tones.
To Use Popcorn: Place popcorn bag on the turntable, correct
side up, as indicated on the package.
1. Touch POPCORN.
The display will show “3.0-” followed by “3.5.” Turning the
dial or touching POPCORN again will change the selection to
“1.75.” See chart for details.
2. Touch START.
The sensor animation will appear in the display, and the
remaining popping time may be displayed periodically during
the cycle.
When the cycle ends, “END” will appear in the display, and
the end-of-cycle tones will sound, followed by reminder
tones.
3. Touch CANCEL/OFF or open the door to clear the display
and/or stop reminder tones.
Keep Warm
Hot cooked food can be kept warm in the microwave oven. Keep
Warm can be used by itself or can be programmed to follow a
cooking cycle.
Cover plates of food.
Cover foods that were covered while being cooked.
Do not cover baked goods such as pastries, pies, turnovers,
etc.
To Use (for single cycle):
1. Touch KEEP WARM.
The display will show “60:00,” which is the maximum default
warming time.
2. Adjust the warming time, if desired, by turning the dial.
3. Touch START.
The display will count down the warming time, and the Cook
Time indicator will flash.
Warming time may be adjusted at any time during the Keep
Warm cycle by turning the dial.
The 10% cook power cannot be changed during the Keep
Warm cycle.
When the cycle ends, the end-of-cycle tones will sound, and
the display will return to the time of day mode.
To Set at End of Cycle: During any cooking function, except
Popcorn or Defrost, touch KEEP WARM. The Cook Time
indicator will flash. Adjust warm time, if desired, then touch
START. When the current cooking cycle has ended, the end-of-
cycle tones will sound, and then the Keep Warm cycle will
automatically start. The Cook Time indicator will flash, and the
display will count down the warming time. Warming time may be
adjusted at any time during the countdown. At the end of the
warming cycle, the end-of-cycle tones will sound, and the display
will return to the time of day mode.
To Warm Manually: Follow instructions in “Cook Time Set”
section, and use 10% cooking power. See “Microwave Cooking
Power” chart.
