Sensor Cook feature can be used again when the " " message disappears. Please open the door in order to cool the temperature of the cavity more quickly. For the best results with the GENIUS SENSOR, follow these recommendations: BEFORE Reheating/Cooking: 1. The room temperature surrounding the oven should be below 95 °F (35 °C). 2. Food weight should exceed 4 oz. (110 g). 3. Be sure the glass tray, the outside of the cooking containers and the inside of the microwave oven are dry before placing food in the oven. Residual beads of moisture turning into steam can mislead the sensor. 4. Cover food with lid, or with vented plastic wrap. Never use tightly sealed plastic containers-they can prevent steam from escaping and cause food to overcook. DURING Reheating/Cooking: DO NOT open the oven door until two beeps sound and cooking time appears in the display. Doing so will cause inaccurate cooking since the steam from food is no longer contained within the oven cavity. Once the cooking time begins to count down, the oven door may be opened to stir, turn or rearrange foods. AFTER Reheating/Cooking: All foods should have a standing time. 19 '$#"1@JOEE
