Sensor Operations

Sensor Cook Operating Tips

The Sensor Cook categories 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 type and amount of food. The rood categories that are controlled with the humidity sensor are:

For best results, do not use one of the Sensor Cook categories 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 Easy Set 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.
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 that does not result from the food cooking can mislead the sensor.

Suppose you want to cook Frozen Breakfast.

1. Press the Sensor Cook pad.
2. Press START pad.

Suppose you want to cook Fish Seafood.

1. Press the Sensor Cook pad three times.
2. Press START pad.

Sensor Reheat

The reheat feature is 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 type and amount of food.

Notes concerning sensor reheat :

• For casseroles, add 2 – 3 tablespoons of liquid, cover with lid or vented plastic wrap. Stir when instructed from display.
• For canned foods, empty contents of can into a casserole dish or serving bowl. Cover dish with lid or vented plastic wrap. Let stand a few minutes before serving.
• For plates of food, arrange food on plate and add any butter or gravies, etc. Cover with loose-fitting lid or vented plastic wrap. After reheating, let stand a few minutes be. ;

Example : suppose you want to reheat 1 cup beverage.

1. Press Sensor Reheat pad.
2. Press START pad.

Care & Cleaning

Cleaning suggestions
For best performance and for safety reasons, keep the oven clean inside and outside. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and oven frame free of food and grease buildup.

Never use rough scouring powder or pads on the microwave. Wipe the microwave oven inside and out with a soft cloth and warm (not hot) mild detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe completely dry.

Wipe splatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking greasy foods like chicken or bacon.

Follow these instructions to clean and care for your microwave oven:

Keep the inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently.
Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean cloth and mild detergent. DO NOT use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
To help loosen baked-on food particles or liquids, heat 2 cups of water (add the juice of 1 lemon if you desire to keep the oven smelling fresh) in a 4 cup measuring glass at High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 to 2 minutes.
Remove the glass turntable tray from the oven when cleaning the oven cavity or tray. To prevent the glass turntable from breaking, handle with care and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the turntable tray with mild detergent.
Clean the outside surface of the microwave with mild detergent and a clean damp cloth. Dry with a clean soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, do not let water seep into any vents or openings.

Wash the oven door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft clean cloth to avoid scratching.
If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage.
Never operate the oven without food in the oven cavity; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray.
