Sensor operating instructions
Sensor Cook allows you to cook most of your
favorite foods without selecting cooking times and
power levels . The display will indicate the sensing
period by scrolling the name of the food . 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 will tell the oven how much longer to cook . The
display will show the remaining heating time .
For best results when cooking by Sensor, follow
these recommendations:
1 . Food cooked with the sensor system should be at
normal storage temperature .
2 . Glass turntable and outside of container should
be dry to assure best cooking results .
3 . Most foods should always be covered loosely
with microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper, or
a lid .
4 . Do not open the door or touch the STOP/CLEAR
pad 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 .
See sensing chart on page 22 .
IMPORTANT:
When using sensor cook, the oven must cool for 5
minutes between uses or food will not cook properly .
