SENSOR SETTINGS
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 levels
for various foods and quantities.
USING SENSOR SETTINGS:
1 After the Microwave Drawer is plugged in, wait 2
minutes before using any sensor setting.
2 Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the
interior of the Microwave Drawer are dry. Wipe off any
moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3 The sensor works with foods at normal storage
temperature. For example, popcorn would be at room
temperature.
4 Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or
Less Time Adjustment. See page 16.
5 More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts
should be cooked following the guidelines in any
microwave cookbook.
6 During the rst part of sensor use, the food name will
appear on the display. Do not open the Microwave Drawer
or touch Stop/Clear during this part of the cycle. The
measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs,
an error message will appear. To continue cooking, touch
the Stop/Clear pad and cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the
food, the remainder of cooking/reheating time will
appear. The Microwave Drawer may be opened when
the remaining time appears on the display. At this time,
you may stir or season food, as desired.
7 If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
popping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the time
of day will be displayed. If the sensor does not detect
vapor properly when cooking other foods,
ERROR
will
be displayed, and the microwave will turn off.
8 Check food temperature after cooking. If additional
time is needed, continue to cook manually.
9 Each food has a cooking hint. Touch the Custom Help
pad when the HELP indicator is lighted in the display.
