Operating Instructions

SENSOR OPERATING

iNSTRUCTiONS

Sensor Cook allows you to cook

most of your favorite foods without

selecting cooking times and power

levels. The display will indicate the sensing period by scrolling the name of the food. The oven automatically determines required cooking time for

each food item. When the internal sensor detects a certain amount

of humidity coming from the food, it will tell the oven how much longer to cook. The display will show the

remaining heating time.

For best results when cooking by Sensor, follow these

recommendations:

1. Food cooked with the sensor system should be at normal

storage temperature.

2. Glass turntable and outside of container should be dry to assure

best cooking results.

3. Most foods should always be covered loosely with microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.

4. Do not open the door or touch

the STOP/CLEAR pad during the

sensing time. When sensing time is over, the oven beeps and the remaining cooking time will appear in the display window. At this time

you can open the door to stir, turn,

or rearrange the food.

IMPORTANT: When using sensor cook, the oven

must cool for 5 minutes between uses or food will not cook properly,

covers. They can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to

overcook.

3. Match the amount to the size of the container. Fill containers at least

half full for best results.

4. Be sure the outside of the cooking container 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.

NOTE: If food is not thoroughly cooked or

reheated when using the sensor

feature, complete using a power

level and cooking time. DO NOT

continue using the sensor pad.

ADDING OR SUBTRACTING

COOKTIME

By using the More(9) or Less(l) pad all of the sensor cook and time cook

settings can be adjusted to cook food

for a longer or shorter time.

DEFROST TIPS

•When using AUTODEFROST,the weight to be entered is the net weight in pounds andtenths of pounds (the weight of the food minus the container).

• Use AUTO DEFROSTonly for raw food. AUTO DEFROST gives best

resultswhen food to be thawed is a minimumof O°F(taken directly from a

true freezer). If food has been stored

in a refrigerator-freezerthat does not maintain a temperature of 5°F or below, alwaysprogram a lower food weight (for a shorter defrosting time) to prevent

cooking the food.

• If the food isstored outside the freezer for upto 20 minutes, enter a lowerfood

weight.

•The shape of the package altersthe defrosting time.Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quickly than a deep block.

• Separatepieces asthey begin to defrost.

Separatedpieces defrost more easily.

• Shield areas offood with small pieces of foil if theystart to becomewarm.

•Youcan use smallpieces of alu-minum

foil to shield foods likechicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails, but the foil must not

touch the side of the oven. Foilcauses

arcing, which can damage the oven lining.

1POUND DEFROST

The 1POUND DEFROSTfeature provides

a rapid defrost for 1.0 pound frozen food.

The oven automatically sets the defrosting time.

Guide for Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave

=Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode.

Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting. Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked.

Guide for Cooking Vegetables in Your Microwave

Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra water is needed. If dense vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and green beans are being cooked, add about _Acup water.

Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster than larger ones.

Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cook more evenly if turned over after half the cooking time has passed.

Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends pointing towards the edge of the dish and the

tips toward the center. When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap. Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin pricked in several spots

before cooking to prevent them from bursting.

For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cooking time. Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time. (Standing time refers to the time necessary for dense,

large foods and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.) A baked potato can stand on the counter for five minutes, while a dish of peas can be served immediately.

MICROWAVE UTENSIL GUIDE

OVEN PROOF GLASS (treated for high intensity heat):

Utility dishes, loaf dishes, pie plates, cake plates, liquid measuring cups, casseroles and

bowls without metallic trim.

CHINA:

Bowls, cups, serving plates and platters without metallic trim.

PLASTIC:

Plastic wrap (as a cover)-- lay the

plastic wrap loosely over the dish and press it to the sides. Vent plastic wrap by turning back one edge slightly to allow excess steam to escape. The dish should be deep enough so that the plastic wrap will

not touch the food. As the food heats it may melt the plastic wrap wherever

the wrap touches the food.

Use plastic dishes, cups, semirigid freezer containers and plastic bags only for short cooking times.

Use these with care because the

plastic may soften from the heat of the food.

PAPER:

Paper towels, waxed paper, paper

napkins, and paper plates with no

metallic trim or design. Look for the

manufacturer's label for use in the

microwave oven.

METAL UTENSILS:

Metal shields the food from microwave energy and produces uneven

cooking. Also avoid metal skewers, thermometers or foil trays. Metal

utensils can cause arcing, which can damage your microwave oven.

METAL DECORATION:

Metal-trimmed or metal-banded dinnerware, casserole dishes, etc. The metal trim interferes with normal cooking and may damage the oven.

ALUMINUM FOIL:

Avoid large sheets of aluminum foil because they hinder cooking and may cause harmful arcing. Use small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and wings. Keep ALL aluminum foil at least 1 inch from the side walls and door

of the oven.

WOOD:

Wooden bowls and boards will dry out and may split or crack when you use them in the microwave oven. Baskets react in the same way.

TIGHTLY COVERED UTENSILS:

Be sure to leave openings for steam to escape from covered utensils. Pierce plastic pouches of vegetables or other food items before cooking.

Tightly closed pouches could explode.

BROWN PAPER:

Avoid using brown paper bags. They absorb too much heat and could burn.

FLAWED OR CHIPPED UTENSILS:

Any utensil that is cracked, flawed, or chipped may break in the oven.

METAL TWIST TIES:

Remove metal twist ties from plastic or paper bags.

They become hot and could cause a fire.
