ALWAYS cook food for the minimum recommended cooking time. If necessary, add time in one or two minute periods, then check for doneness to avoid overcooking the food.

Stir, turn or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking time for most even doneness with all recipes.

If a glass cover is not available, use wax paper, papertowels or microwave approved plastic wrap. Turn back a corner to vent steam during cooking.

When popping commercially packaged microwave popcorn, place bag on lower oven rack.

Using “AUTO SENSOR”

The AUTO SENSOR control allows you to cook food in the oven without computing time or power level. All foods give off moisture as they cook. When the oven senses the right amount of moisture from the

food, it will automatically determine the remaining time and power needed to finish cooking the food. You only need to touch AUTO SENSOR and a number pad [for a food setting), then START.If you like your food less done than average you may decrease the cooking time by touching the “LESS”(Number 7) Pad after selecting the category (before touching START].If you like your food more done than average, touch the “MORE” (Number 9) Pad after selecting the category to extend the time. You may add ingredients, stir, turn or rotate during the timed portion of the Auto Sensor cycle. However, “Err”will show on the Display if the door is opened during the first (automatic) part of the Auto Sensor cycle. If “Err”is displayed, touch CANCEL. To finish cooking, estimate the remaining time and reset the oven using the Cook cycle. Do not reset the Auto Sensor. See the AUTO SENSOR chart included with your oven and the AUTO SENSOR guide on the interior oven frame for examples of food to cook at each setting.
