About the sensor features.

Humidity Sensor

The Sensor Features detect the increasing humidity released during cooking. The oven automatically adjusts the cooking time to various types and amounts of food.

Do not use the Sensor Features twice in succession on the same food portion—it may result in severely overcooked or burnt food. If food is undercooked after the countdown, use the number pads to add more cooking time. Cooking preference varies with individuals. After using the Sensor Reheat or Sensor Cooking pad, you may want to adjust for a different cooking time. The MORE/LESS pad allows you to add or subtract 10% to 20% cooking time to the program. See page 13 for details.

■ The proper containers and covers are essential for best sensor cooking.

Covered

■ Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with lids or vented plastic wrap. Never use tight sealing plastic containers—they can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to overcook.

Vented

■Be sure the outside of the cooking containers 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.

Dry off dishes so they don’t mislead the sensor.

After removing food from the oven, stir, if possible, to even out the temperature. Reheated foods may have wide variations in temperature. Some areas may be extremely hot.

After the time remaining countdown, use the ADD 1 MINUTE feature for additional reheating time.

It is best to use Time Cooking for these foods:

■Foods that must be reheated uncovered.

■Foods that need to be stirred or rotated.

■Foods calling for a dry look or crisp surface after reheating.

After using this feature a few times, you may find that beverages are not hot enough. Press the MORE/LESS pad once for 10 seconds or twice for 20 additional seconds. Press the MORE/LESS pad before the START pad.
