MICROWAVE COOKING WITH SENSOR
Sharp'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 the oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before
cooking with Sensor function.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the
interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with
a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The oven works with foods at normal storage
temperature. For example, popcorn would be at
room temperature.
4. Any Sensor Cook selection can be programmed with
More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 33.
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 cooking with Sensor function,
SENSING will appear on the display. Do not open the
oven door or press Stop/Clear 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, press Stop/Clear and
cook manually. When the sensor detects the vapor
emitted from the food, the remainder of cooking time
will appear.The door may be opened when remaining
cooking time appears in the display. At this time, you
may stir or season food, as desired.
7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly, Error will
be displayed, and the oven will turn off.
8. Check food for temperature or doneness after cooking.
If food is not completely cooked, enter additional
cooking time manually. Do not repeat cooking with
Sensor function again as food may overcook.
Sensor Reheat can be set two ways:
1. Quick way See page 24.
2. Microwave, MANUAL. REHEAT and then SENSOR
REHEAT
Covering Foods:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover
recommended in the Sensor Cook 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.
