Cooking Instructions
Auto Sensor Cook
The Auto Sensor allows you to cook your food automatically by detecting the
amount of moisture generated from the food while cooking.
•
When cooking food, many kinds of moisture are generated. The Auto
Sensor determines the proper time and power level by detecting the
moisture from the food, eliminating the need to set the cooking time and
power level.
•
When you cover a container with its lid or plastic wrap during Sensor
Cooking, the Auto Sensor will detect the moisture generated after the
container has been saturated with steam.
•
Shortly before cooking ends, the remaining cooking time will begin its
count down. This will be a good time for you to rotate or stir the food for
even cooking if it is necessary.
•
Before auto sensor cooking food may be seasoned with herbs, spices or
browning sauces. A word of caution though, salt or sugar may cause
burn spots on food so these ingredients should be added after cooking.
•
The More/Less function pad is used to increase or decrease cooking
time. You should use this function to adjust the degree of cooking to suit
your personal taste.
Utensils & Cover For Sensor Cooking
•
To obtain good cooking results with this function, follow the directions for
selecting appropriate containers and covers in the charts in this book.
•
Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with their lids or
with plastic wrap. When using plastic wrap, turn back one corner to allow
steam to escape at the proper rate.
•
Always cover with the lid intended for the utensil being used. If the
utensil does not have its own lid, use plastic wrap.
•
Fill containers at least half full.
•
Foods that require stirring or rotating should be stirred or turned toward
the end of the Sensor Cook cycle, after the time has started to count
down on the display.
Important
•
It its not advisable to use the auto sensor cooking feature on a
continuous cooking operation, i.e. one cooking operation immediately
after another.
•
Install the oven in a well ventilated location for proper cooling and airflow
and to ensure the sensor will operate accurately.
•
To avoid poor results, do not use the Auto sensor when the room
ambient temperature is too high or too low.
•
Do not use volatile detergent to clean your oven. Moisture resulting from
this detergent may affect the sensor.
•
Avoid placing the oven near high moisture or gas emitting appliances,
since this will interfere with the proper performance of the Auto Sensor.
•
Always keep the inside of the oven clean. Wipe all spills with a damp
cloth.
This oven is designed for household use only.
