SENSOR OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Sensor Cook allows you to cook
most of your favorite foods without
selecting cooking times and power
levels. The display will indicate
SENSING during the initial sensing
period. The oven automatically
determines required cooking time for
each food item. When the internal
sensor detects a certain amount of
humidity coming from the food, it will
tell the oven how much longer to
heat. The display will show the
remaining heating time. For best
results for cooking by Sensor, follow
these recommendations:
1. Food cooked with the sensor
system should be at normal
storage temperature.
2. Glass turntable and outside of
container should be dry to assure
best cooking results.
3. Foods should always be covered
loosely with microwavable plastic
wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.
4. Do not open the door or touch the
STOP/CLEAR pad during the
sensing time. When sensing time
is over, the oven beeps twice and
the remaining cooking time will
appear in the display window. At
this time you can open the door to
stir, turn, or rearrange the food.
SENSOR COOKING
GUIDE
Appropriate containers and coverings
help assure good Sensor cooking
results.
1. Always use microwavable con-
tainers and cover them with lids or
vented plastic wrap.
2. Never use tight-sealing plastic
covers. They can prevent steam
from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
3. Match the amount to the size of
the container. Fill containers at
least half full for best results.
4. Be sure the outside of the cooking
container 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.
