SENSOR COOKING
The Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the vapor (moisture and
humidity) emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times
and power level for various foods and quantities.
It takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.
USING SENSOR SETTINGS:
1. Room temperature should not exceed 95˚F.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the microwave
oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. During the first part of sensor cooking, the food name will appear on the
display. Do not open the microwave oven door or touch Stop/Clear during this
part of the cooking cycle. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this
occurs, an error message will appear and sensor cooking will be interrupted.
To continue cooking, touch the Stop/Clear pad and select cooking time and
power. When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food, remainder
of cooking time will appear on display. At this time, you may stir or season
food, as desired.
4. Check food for temperature after cooking. If additional time is needed,
continue to cook with variable power and time.
5. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly,
ERROR
will be displayed, and
the microwave oven will turn off.
6. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch Help pad when the HELP indicator is
lighted in the display.
7. At the end of any cycle, open the door or touch Stop/Clear pad. The time
of day will reappear on the display.
SELECTING FOODS:
1. The sensor works with foods at normal storage temperature. For example,
food for dinner plate reheat would be at refrigerator temperature and
popcorn at room temperature.
2. More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts should be cooked by
time and variable power.
COVERING FOODS:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover recommended in the chart
for these foods.
1. Casserole lid
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for microwave cooking. Cover
dish loosely; allow approximately ½ inch to remain uncovered to allow steam
to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch food.
3. Paper towel: Use paper towels to absorb excess fat and moisture when
cooking bacon and potatoes. Line the turntable when baking potatoes.
