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 5 food 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. If using a microwave popcorn popper, follow
manufacturer’s instructions.
To Use 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 outside of the container and microwave oven
cavity are dry.
1. Touch one of the 5 SENSOR food pads.
The microwave oven will automatically turn on. While the
cooking time is being estimated, “SENSE” will appear in the
display. Then the SENSOR set time counts down on the
display, and “MAX” appears every 3 seconds.
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 or open the door to clear the display and/or
stop reminder tones.
The cook time can be changed (except POPCORN) for
