SENSOR SETTINGS
Dacor'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 In-A-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 In-A-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 13.
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 first part of sensor use, the food name will
appear on the display. Do not open the Microwave In-A-
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 In-A-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
hELP
pad when
the HELP indicator is lighted in the display.
