Using AUTO SENSOR
The Auto Sensor Control allows you to cook food in the oven without comput-
ing time or power
level. All foods give off moisture, aroma
and other vapors as
they cook. When the oven senses the right amount
of vapor from the food, it
will automatically
determine
the remaining
time and power needed
to finish
cooking
the food. You only need to touch COOK/REHEAT or COOK FROZEN and
a number
pad (for a food setting), then START. If you like your food less done
than average
you may decrease
the cooking
time by touching
the LESS
(Number
1) Pad after selecting
the category
(before touching
START]. If you
like your food more done than average,
touch the MORE (Number
9) Pad
after selecting
the category
(before touching
START] to extend
the time. You
may add ingredients,
stir, turn or rotate during the timed
portion
of the Auto
Sensor cycles.
However, "Err" will show on the Display
if the door is opened
during the first (automatic)
part of either cycle.
If this happens,
open the door
and touch CANCEL. To finish cooking,
estimate
the remaining
time and reset
the oven using Cook 1 cycle.
Do nofreset
the Auto Sensor. See the Auto
Sensor Chart included
with vour oven and the Auto Sensor Guide on the inner
door panel
for examples
of food to cook at each setting.
COOK/REHEAT
Use COOK/REHEAT to automatically
cook fresh food items or reheat
previously
cooked
foods. There are 9 cooking
categories
in COOK/REHEAT.
