Sensor Cook Operation

Sensor cook operating tips

The Sensor Cook catagories are designed to detect the increasing humidity released by the food during the cooking process. The microwave oven sensor will automatically adjust the cooking time to the the type and amount of food. The food catagories that are controlled with the humidity sensor are:

•	sensor reheat	•	fresh veggie
•	frozen pizza	•	frozen veggie
•	fish	•	potato
•	meat	•	frozen entrée

For best results, do not use one of the Sensor Cook catagories twice in succession on the same food portion -

this may result in severely overcooked or burnt food. If the food appears to be undercooked, use one of the EasySet pads or cook time pads to add more time.

Additional sensor cook suggestions are:

•Never start with less than 4 oz. of food.

•Use proper containers and covers for best sensor cooking results.

•Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with loose fitting lids or vented plastic wrap. Never use tight sealing plastic containers - they will prevent steam from escaping and this will mislead the sensor; usually causing the food to overcook.

•Be sure the outside of the cooking containers and the cavity of the microwave oven are dry before placing food in the oven. Excessive moisture turning into steam not resulting from the food cooking can mislead the sensor.

Sensor reheat

•Uncooked or raw foods.

•Bread and other dry types of food such as crackers, biscuits or cakes.
