OPERATION
Sensor Operation
Sensor Cook cooks favorite foods without selecting
cooking times and power levels.
The oven automatically determines required cooking
time for each food item. When the internal sensor
detects a certain amount of humidity coming from
the food, it tells the oven how much longer to heat.
The display shows the remaining heating time. For
best results when sensor cooking, follow these
recommendations.
•
Food cooked with the sensor system should be at
normal storage temperature.
•
The glass tray and the outside of the container
should be dry to assure best cooking results.
•
Foods should always be covered loosely with
microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.
•
Do not open the door or touch Clear/Off during the
sensing time. When sensing time is over, the oven
beeps and the remaining cooking time will appear
in the display window.
At this time you can open the door to stir, turn, or
rearrange the food.
Appropriate containers and coverings help assure
good sensor cooking results.
•
Always use microwavable containers and cover
them with lids or vented plastic wrap.
•
Never use tight-sealing plastic covers. They can
prevent steam from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
•
Match the amount to the size of the container.
Fill containers at least half full for best results.
•
Be sure the outside of the cooking container and
the inside of the upper oven are dry before placing
food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning into
steam can mislead the sensor.
Using Sensor Cook

prepared foods without needing to program times and
power levels. Sensor Cook has preset programs for 9
food categories. See the Sensor Cook table for more
information.
