Cooking is complete when 5 beeps
sound. (When steam is detected by the
Genius Sensor and 2 beeps sound, the
remaining cooking time will appear in the
display window.)
For the best results with the GENIUS
SENSOR, follow these recommendations.
BEFORE Reheating/Cooking:
1. The room temperature surrounding the
oven should be below 35° C (95° F).
2. Food weight should exceed 110 g (4 oz.).
3. Be sure the glass tray, the outside of the
cooking containers and the inside of the
microwave oven are dry before placing
food in the oven. Residual beads of mois-
ture turning into steam can mislead the
sensor.
4. Cover food with lid, or with vented plastic
wrap. Never use tightly sealed plastic
containers—they can prevent steam from
escaping and cause food to overcook.
DURING Reheating/Cooking:
DO NOT open the oven door until 2 beeps
sound and cooking time appears on the
Display Window. Doing so will cause inac-
curate cooking since the steam from food is
no longer contained within the oven cavity.
Once the cooking time begins to count
down, the oven door may be opened to stir,
turn or rearrange foods.
AFTER Reheating/Cooking:
All foods should have a stand time.
