About the sensor 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 overcooked 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.
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.
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.
