SENSOR OPERATIONS
The Sensor Cook categories are designed to detect the increasing humidity released by the food during the cooking
process. The microwave oven sensor will automatically adjust the cooking time to the type and amount of food.
Using Sensor Settings
1. After the oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before
using Sensor Cook.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the
interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with
a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The oven works with foods at normal storage
temperature.
4. More or less food than the quantity listed in the chart
should be cooked following the guidelines in any
microwave cookbook.
5. Do not open the oven door or press STOP/CLEAR
pad until cooking time appears on the display
window. The measurement of vapor will be
interrupted. If this occurs, an error message "Er01"
will appear. To continue cooking, press the STOP/
CLEAR pad and cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the
food, the remainder of cooking time will appear.
The door may be opened when remaining cooking
time appears on the display. At this time, you may stir
or season food, as desired.
6. Always use microwave-safe containers and cover
them with loose fitting lids or vented plastic wrap.
Never use tight sealing plastic containers. They will
prevent steam from escaping and this will mislead the
sensor, usually causing the food to overcook.
7. Check food for temperature or doneness after
cooking.
If food is not completely cooked, enter
additional cooking time manually.
Do not use one
of the Sensor Cook categories twice in succession on
the same food portion. This may result in severely
overcooked or burnt food.
Covering Foods
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover
recommended in the Sensor Cook Chart for these
foods.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap : Use plastic wrap recommended for
microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow
approximately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow
steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch
food.
3. Wax paper : Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap
under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper,
overlap two pieces at least one inch to cover.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam
to escape away from you.
