Cooking Instructions

Auto Sensor Cook

The Auto Sensor allows you to cook your food automatically by detecting the 
amount of moistures generated from the food while cooking.

When cooking food, many kinds of moistures are generated. The Auto 
Sensor determines the proper time and power level by detecting these 
moistures 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 moistures 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.

Cooking Guide
Guide for Cooking Meat in Your Microwave

Place meat on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish.

Start meat fat-side down. Use narrow strips of aluminum foil to shield any 
bone tips or thin meat areas.

Check the temperature in several places before letting the meat stand

The following temperatures are removal temperatures. The temperature 
of the food will rise during the standing time.
