SENSOR OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Sensor Cook allows you to cook most of your favourite
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.
. 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
microwave-safe 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 19.
IMPORTANT: When using sensor cook, the oven must
cool for 5 minutes between uses or food will not cook
properly.

OPERATION

SENSOR COOKING GUIDE

Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good
Sensor cooking results.
1. Always use microwavable containers and cover
them with microwave-safe lid or vented plastic
wrap.
. Never use tight-sealing plastic covers. They can
prevent steam from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
3. Match the amount to the size of the container. Fill
containers at least half full for best results.
4. Be sure the outside of the cooking container and
the inside of the microwave oven are dry before
placing food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning
into steam can mislead the sensor.
NOTE: If food is not thoroughly cooked or reheated
when using the sensor feature, complete using a power
level and cooking time. DO NOT continue using the
sensor pad.
ADDING OR SUBTRACTING
COOK TIME
By using the More(9) or Less(1) pad all of the sensor
cook and time cook settings can be adjusted to cook
food for a longer or shorter time.
