Doneness

feature is used on all sensor and non-sensor functions with the
exception of Manual cooking, Popcorn, EasyConvect™, Custom
Reheat (beverage-manual), Custom Defrost (manual), Steam
(manual), and Crisp.
The 3 Doneness levels are Normal (default), More or Less and will
appear once activated on the lower text line of the upper oven
display. Doneness can be changed only before starting the cycle.
To Change Doneness Setting:
After setting a function, the Doneness setting can be changed if
desired. This can be done before or after the “START?” prompt
appears in the display. Touch the POWER key repeatedly to
toggle through Doneness options of Normal, More, or Less.
Sensor Cook
The Sensor Cook function is used in Custom Reheat (dinner
plate) and Steam Cook.
During the Sensor Cook function a sensor automatically adjusts
for the cook time and power level.
The microwave oven display will show the “Maximum Time
Remaining” prompt and the time countdown once the sensor
identifies the cooking duration.
If the microwave oven door is opened during a sensor function
the microwave oven will turn off, and any additional operations
will be canceled.

Before using a sensor cook function, make sure power has been
supplied to the microwave oven for at least 2 minutes, the room
