Using Sensor cooking

(Please review this section carefully. It was not very well explained in the 
source material.)

1

Put the food in the oven.

2

Press one of the sensor options: 

Sensor Reheat

Frozen Pizza

Fresh 

Vegetable

Potato

, or 

Meat

. The 

 and 

 icons appear on the 

display.

3

Press 

 to begin cooking (no need to set the cooking time). The 

 

and 

 icons blink.

If the oven can sense the food’s moisture content, the buzzer sounds 
twice and the remaining cook time appears on the display, along with 
the sensor setting selected.

After 35 seconds the buzzer beeps once and the oven begins checking 
the food. If the sensor is not working, the oven will go back to standby 
after 40 seconds.

4

When finished, the oven beeps five times and returns to standby 
mode. Allow the food to “rest” before removing it from the oven.

Notes

When cooking or reheating food using the sensor, for 

the best results do the following:

• The room temperature should not be over 95° F 

(35° C).

• The food should weigh more than 4 oz. (110 g).
• The oven interior, glass tray, and utensils must be 

dry before putting the food in.

• The food can be covered with a lid, but the lid 

must have vent holes in order to vent steam 
during cooking. Do not use sealed containers.

• If the oven interior is too hot, the sensor will not 

work.

Notes

During the cooking process:

• If the remaining time is not displayed or the 

buzzer does not sound, leave the door closed.

• When the remaining time is displayed and the 

buzzer sounds twice, you can open the door to 
stir or turn the food over.

• If the cooking time does not count down, do not 

open the oven door or press 

. This causes a 

sensor error.
