SENSOR COOKING
Food releases humidity during cooking/heating.
How much humidity food releases is affected by
the quantity, temperature, and shape of the food.
Your microwave oven has a sensor that detects
this humidity. The amount of humidity detected
tells the oven how long to cook or heat your food.
You can sensor cook when preparing any of 5
types of food. Just touch the pad for the food you
want to cook or heat (see the chart below).
To sensorcook:
1. Touch a SENSOR COOK pad.

POTATO potato

time is esti-
mated)
NOTES:
• You do not need to touch START/ENTER to
start the oven. The oven will start cooking/
heating when you touch one of the
SENSOR COOK pads.
• If you need more or less cooking time, do not
touch the selected SENSOR COOK pad again.
Touch POWER within 20 seconds after choosing
the food type. (See "Changing preset cooking
times" in the "Getting to Know Your Microwave
Oven" section.) You cannot change preset cook-
ing times for POPCORN.
• The sensor needs 2 minutes, 30 seconds to warm
up after the oven is connected to power or after a
power failure in your home. tf you start sensor
cooking during the warm-up, "SENSE" shows on
the display until the warm-up is over. Microwave
energy will not be turned on until the sensor is
warm.
• When cooking foods for a long time, allow the
oven to cool down before sensor cooking again.
Popcorn brands make a difference
How well your popcorn cooks will depend on the
brand of popcorn and how much fat it has in it. Try
several brands to decide which pops the best. For
best results, use fresh bags of popcorn.
This chart shows you how to choose a type of food and the amount you can choose for each type.
