SENSOR
CENTER
The sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the
vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food as
it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and
power level for various foods and quantities.
Using Sensor Settings:
1. After oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before
using Sensor Center.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and
the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any mois-
ture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The oven works with foods at normal storage tem-
perature. For example, popcorn would be at room
temperature.
4. Any Sensor Center selection can be programmed
with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 32.
5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the
chart should be cooked following the guidelines in
any microwave cookbook.
6. During the first part of any sensor cooking or reheat-
ing, food name will appear on the display. Do not open
the oven door or touch STOP/CLEAR during this part
of the cycle. The measurement of vapor will be inter°
rupted. If this occurs, an error message will appear. To
continue cooking, touch the STOP!CLEAR pad and
cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from
the food, remainder of cooking time will appear.
Door may be opened when remaining cooking
time appears on the display. At this time, you may
stir or season food, as desired.
7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
popping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the correct
time of day will be displayed. If the sensor does not
detect vapor properly when cooking other foods,
will be displayed, and the oven will turn off.
8. Check food for temperature after cooking. If addi-
tional time is needed, continue to cook manually.
9. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch HELP GUIDE
pad when the HELP indicator is lighted in the display.
Covering Foods:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover
recommended in the food charts.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for
microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approxi°
mately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow steam
to escape. Plastic wrap should not ouch food.
3. Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess
wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than
paper, overlap two pieces at least one inch to cover.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam
to escape away from you.
REHEAT a!lows you to reheat many of your favorite
foods. You don't need to calculate cooking time or power
level,
* Suppose you want to reheat lasagna.
