Important
•
After installing the oven and plugging into an
electrical outlet, do not unplug the power cord.
The gas sensor needs time to stabilize in order
to cook satisfactorily.
•
It its not advisable to use the auto sensor cook-
ing feature on a continuous cooking operation,
i.e. one cooking operation immediately after
another.
Let the oven cool 5 minutes before using Auto
Senser again.
•
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. Gas 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.
Auto Sensor Cook
The Auto Sensor allows you to cook your food
automatically by detecting the amount of gases
generated from the food while cooking.
•
When cooking food, many kinds of gases are
generated. The Auto Sensor determines the
proper time and power level by detecting these
gases from the food, eliminating the need to set
the cooking time and power level.
•
When you cover a container with its lid or plas-
tic wrap during Sensor Cooking, the Auto
Sensor will detect the gases 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 sea-
soned 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 cook-
ing to suit your personal taste.
Utensils & Cover For Sensor Cooking
•
To obtain good cooking results with this func-
tion, follow the directions for selecting appro-
priate 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.
