System 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 SENSOR 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 the 6th SENSE™ System:
Before using, make sure the microwave oven has been plugged
in for at least 2¹⁄₂ 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 SENSOR pads.
The microwave oven will automatically turn on when
POPCORN, BAKED POTATO or DINNER PLATE is touched.
The Progress Bar will show the approximate time remaining.
If more or less time is required (for BAKED POTATO and
DINNER PLATE only), touch COOK POWER after the
microwave oven starts to cook.
When the cycle ends, “END” will appear in the display, 4 end-
of-cycle tones will sound, and then reminder tones will sound
