SENSOR COOKINGSENSOR COOKING
The Sensor is a semi-conductor device that
detects the vapor (moisture and humidity)
emitted from food as it heats. The Sensor
adjusts the cooking times and power level for
various foods and quantities.
USING SENSOR SETTINGS:USING SENSOR SETTINGS:
1. After the oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes
before using the Sensor settings.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container
and the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe
off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper
towel.
3. Sensor Reheat and Popcorn can only be
entered within 1 minute after cooking,
opening and closing the door, or touching the
STOP/CLEAR pad.
4. During the first part of Sensor cooking, the
food name will appear in the display. Do not
open the oven door or touch
STOP/CLEAR
during this part of the cooking cycle. The
measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If
this occurs, an error message will appear. To
continue cooking, touch the
STOP/CLEAR
pad and select the cooking time and variable
power.
When the Sensor detects the vapor emitted
from the food, the remainder of cooking time
will appear. The door may be opened when
the remaining cooking time appears on the
display. At this time, you may stir or season
food, as desired.
5. Check the food temperature after cooking. If
additional time is needed, continue to cook
with variable power and time.
6. If the Sensor does not detect vapor properly
when popping popcorn, the oven will turn
off and the time of day will be displayed. If
the Sensor does not detect vapor properly
when using Sensor Reheat,
ERROR will be
displayed and the oven will turn off.
7. Any Sensor cooking mode can be
programmed with More or Less Time
Adjustment. See “MORE OR LESS TIME
ADJUSTMENT” on page32.
8. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch HELP
MENU
when the HELP indicator is lighted in
the display.
SELECTING FOODS:SELECTING FOODS:
• The Sensor works with foods at normal
storage temperature. For example, food for
dinner plate reheat would be at refrigerator
temperature and popcorn at room
temperature.
• Foods weighing less than 3 ounces should
be reheated by time and variable power.
COVERING FOODS:COVERING FOODS:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the
cover recommended for these foods.
• Casserole lid
• Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap
recommended for microwave cooking.
Cover the dish loosely; allow approximately
1
/
2
inch [1.25 cm] to remain uncovered to
allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should
not touch the food.
• Wax paper: Cover the dish completely; fold
excess wrap under the dish to secure it. If
the dish is wider than the paper, overlap
two pieces at least one inch [2.5 cm] to
cover it.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow
steam to escape away from you.
