Other Features
Humidity Sensor
The Sensor Features detect the increasing humidity released during cooking. The oven automatically adjusts the
cooking time to various types and amounts of food.
Do not use the Sensor Features twice in succession on the same food portion—it may result in severely over-cooked
or burnt food. If food is undercooked after the countdown, use Time Cook for additional cooking time.
• The proper containers and covers are essential for best sensor cooking.
Covered
• Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with lids or vented plastic wrap. Never use tight-sealing
plastic containers — they can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to overcook.
Vented
• Be sure the outside of the cooking containers 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.
Dry off dishes so they don't
mislead the sensor.
Popcorn
To use the Popcorn feature:
1. Follow package instructions, using Time Cook if the package is less than 1.75 ounces or
larger than 3.5 ounces. Place the package of popcorn in the center of the microwave.
2. Press POPCORN. The oven starts immediately.
Do not open the oven door until time is counting down. If the door is opened, while time is counting down, close it
and press START/PAUSE immediately.
If food is undercooked after the countdown use Time Cook for additional cooking time.
NOTE : Use only with prepackaged microwave popcorn weighing 1.75 to 3.5 ounces.
NOTE: Do not use this feature twice in succession on the same food portion—it may result in severely overcooked
or burnt food.
