HOT WATER
HOT WATER heats 1 to 6 cups of tap water to prepare
coffee, tea, bouillon or instant soup as well as heat the
water to cook pasta. When preparing individual cups,
place instant coffee, tea or bouillon in cup and stir before
heating. Allow to stand 20 seconds after heating before
stirring and drinking. Stir carefully after removing from
the oven. When heating 4 to 6 cups of water, place in
large casserole and cover with lid or plastic wrap. When
oven signals, add pasta and continue cooking according
to package directions. Touch HOT WATER pad once for
each cup up to 6.

SENSOR COOK
Sharp's Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects
the vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food
as it heats. The sensor adjusts the cooking times and
power level for various foods and quantities.
Using Sensor Settings:
1. After oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before
using Sensor Cook.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the
interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture
with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The oven works with foods at normal storage
temperature. For example, popcorn would be at
room temperature.
4. Any Sensor Cook selection can be programmed
with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 19.
5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the chart
should be cooked following the guidelines in any
microwave cookbook.
6. During the fi rst part of Sensor Cook, food name
will appear on the display. Do not open the oven
door or touch STOP/CLEAR pad during this part
of the cooking cycle. The measurement of vapor
will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error message
will appear. To continue cooking, touch the STOP/
CLEAR pad and cook manually.

When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from
the food, remainder of cooking time will appear.
Door may be opened when remaining cooking
time appears on the display. At this time, you may
stir or season food, as desired.
7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
popping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the
correct time of day will be displayed. If the sensor
does not detect vapor properly when cooking other
foods, an error message will be displayed, and the
oven will turn off.
8. Check food for temperature after cooking. If
additional time is needed, continue to cook
manually.
9. Sensor Cook can only be entered within 3 minutes
after cooking, opening and closing the door or
touching the STOP/CLEAR pad.
10. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch CUSTOM
HELP pad when the HELP indicator is lighted in the
display.
Covering Foods:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover
recommended in the chart for these foods.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for
microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow
approximately 1/2 inch/1 cm to remain uncovered to
allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch
food.
3. Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess
wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper,
overlap two pieces at least 1 inch/2.5 cm to cover.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam
to escape away from you.
Example:
You can cook many foods by touching just one pad. You
don't need to calculate cooking time or power level.
• Suppose you want to reheat canned chili.
