SENSOR COOKING CONDITION
Using the SENSOR function, food is cooked without figuring
time, power level or quantity. When the oven senses enough
steam from the food, it relays the information to its
microprocessor which will calculate the remaining cooking
time and power level needed for best results. When the food
is cooked, water vapor is developed. the sensor "senses" the
vapor and its resistance increase gradually. When the
resistance reaches the value set according to the menu,
supplementary cooking is started.
The time of supplementary cooking is determined by experi-
ment with each food category and inputted into the LSI. An
example of how sensor works: (Potatoes)
1. Potatoes at room temperature. Vapor is emitted very
slowly.
2.Heat Potatoes. Moisture and humidity is emitted very
rapidly. You can smell the aroma as it cooks.
