If you touch REHEAT 5 times, the display returns to the Pizza Slice setting.

If you need more or less cooking time, do not touch REHEAT again. Touch COOK POWER before you touch START. (See “Changing preset cooking times” in the “Using Your Microwave Oven” sec- tion.)

When reheating a large (4 oz [113 g]) muffin or bagel use the 2-piece setting. The 1-piece setting warms 1 regular-size muffin or bagel, or 2 small dinner rolls.

**After you choose the food type and quantity and touch START, “SENSE” appears on the display. Also, the sensor

needs 2 minutes, 30 seconds to warm up after the oven is connected to power or after a power failure. If you start sensor cooking during the warm-up, “SENSE” shows on the display until the warm-up is over. Microwave energy will not be turned on until the sensor is warm.
