SETTING THE MICROWAVE
Sensor Cook
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
food categories that are controlled with the humidity sensor
are shown in
Table 7.
For best results, do not use one of the Sensor Cook catego-
ries twice in succession on the same food portion. This may
result in severely overcooked or burnt food. If the food
appears to be under-cooked, 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.
• For best sensor cooking results, use proper containers
and covers or wrap food with plastic.
• 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 inside.
Excessive moisture turning into steam that does not result
from the food cooking can mislead the sensor.
To set Sensor Cook:
1. Press Sensor Cook until the correct food type displays.
2. Press START.
When the food is ready, three long tones sound, and
“FOOD READY” shows in the display.
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 before serving.
To set Reheat:
1. Press Reheat until the correct food type displays.
2. Press START.
3. For soup/sauce, use the number keys to enter the
quantity (skip for Default) and press START again.
When the food is ready, three long tones sound, and
“FOOD READY” shows in the display.
Keypad Lock
The Keypad Lock prevents unwanted microwave oven
operation, such as by small children. The microwave oven
can be set so that the control panel is deactivated or locked.
Touch and hold the lock pad for 3 seconds. The lock icon
lights up. “LOCKED” will show in the display if you attempt
to set the controls.
To unlock the keypad, touch and hold the lock pad for 3
seconds. The lock icon will go out.
