The microwave oven has a durable, nonstick coating that resists
soil buildup by making cleaning easier than in conventional
microwave ovens. See "General Cleaning" section for cleaning
instructions.
The microwave system delivers a constant stream of microwave
power - true high, medium and low power.
Typically, microwave ovens operate on HIGH power only. For
example, to achieve a 50% power level ("medium") in a typical
microwave oven, the microwave oven operates 50% of the time
at HIGH power and 50% of the time OFE
In contrast, microwave ovens utilizing this microwave system
deliver the selected power level continuously. This constant
stream of microwave power helps to minimize overcooking of
foods and messy food spatters.

A. Halogen bulb
B. Quartz bulb
The microwave oven uses a 1,000-watt halogen bulb with a
500-watt quartz bulb to serve as the grill element for various
cooking functions.
When the element is in use, the halogen bulb glows very brightly,
while the glow of the quartz bulb is barely-if at all-visible. (See
"Troubleshooting" for quartz bulb testing.) The microwave oven
cavity and door will become hot. The use of oven mitts is
recommended.

Sensor Cooking
The microwave system features the 6th SENSE

cooking
system. A humidity sensor in the microwave oven cavity detects
moisture and humidity emitted from food as it heats. The sensor
adjusts cooking times to various types and amounts of food.
Sensor cooking takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.

The microwave oven's convection system is composed of a
convection element, which heats in conjunction with the
convection fan for true convection cooking. The convection
system is embedded in the wall of the microwave oven cavity,
behind the protective screen. See "Parts and Features." The
microwave oven cavity and door will become hot. The use of
oven mitts is recommended.
