® System Cooking

A sensor in the microwave oven detects humidity released from the food and automatically sets a cooking time based on the selected pad.

Use the following chart as a guide for the SENSOR pads.

FOOD	SERVING SIZE	INSTRUCTIONS
Popcorn*	3.5 oz (100 g)	Pop only 1 package at a
	3 oz (85 g)	time.
	1.2-1.75 oz (34-50 g)
Baked	1-4 medium,	Pierce each one several
Potatoes	10-13 oz (283-369 g)	times with a fork. Place on
	each, similar in size	turntable around edges, at
		least 1" (2.5 cm) apart. At
		the end of cooking, let
		stand 5 minutes.
Dinner	1 serving (1 plate),	Place food on plate, cover
Plate	8-16 oz (0.2-0.45 kg)	with plastic wrap and vent.

*Do not use regular paper bags or glassware. Listen for popping to slow to 1 pop every 1 or 2 seconds, then stop the cycle. Do not try to pop unpopped kernels. Use fresh bags of popcorn for optimal results. Cooking results may vary by brand and fat content. If using a microwave popcorn popper, follow manufacturer’s instructions.
