USING SENSOR COOKING COOK
SENSOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Sensor Cook allows you to cook most of your
favorite foods without selecting cooking times and
power levels, the display will indicate “Sensing”
during the initial sensing period. The oven
automatically determines the 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
heat. The display will show the remaining heating
time. For best results for cooking by Sensor, follow
these recommendations.
•Food cooked with the sensor system should be at
normal storage temperature.
•The glass tray (TURNTABLE) and the outside of
the container should be dry to ensure the best
cooking results.
•Foods should always be covered loosely with
microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper or a lid.
•Do not open the door or touch the STOP key
during the sensing time. When the 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.
SENSOR COOKING GUIDE
Appropriate containers and coverings help ensure
good Sensor cooking results.
•Always use microwavable containers and cover
them with lids or vented plastic wrap.
•Never use tight-sealing plastic covers. They can
prevent steam from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
•Match the amount to the size of the container. Fill
containers at least half full for best results.
•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.
