Control Panel and Settings Sensor Settings 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 levels for various foods and quantities. • After the Microwave Hood is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before using any sensor setting. • Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the Microwave Hood are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel. • The sensor works with foods at normal storage temperature. For example, popcorn would be at room temperature. • Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 21. • More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts should be cooked following the guidelines in any microwave cookbook. • During the first part of sensor use, the food name will appear on the display. Do not open the Microwave Hood or touch STOP/Clear during this part of the 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, the remainder of cooking/reheating time will appear. The Built-in Microwave Hood may be opened when the remaining time appears on the display. At this time, you may stir or season food, as desired. • If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when popping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the time of day will be displayed. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when cooking other foods, ERROR will be displayed, and the microwave will turn off. • Check food temperature after cooking.

Operation
Sensor Settings
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 levels for various foods and quantities.
After the Microwave Hood is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before using any sensor setting.
Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the Microwave Hood are dry. Wipe off any moisture
with a dry cloth or paper towel.
The sensor works with foods at normal storage temperature. For example, popcorn would be at room temperature.
Any sensor selection can be programmed with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 21.
More or less food than the quantity listed in the charts should be cooked following the guidelines in any microwave
cookbook.
During the first part of sensor use, the food name will appear on the display. Do not open the Microwave Hood or
touch STOP/Clear during this part of the 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, the remainder of cooking/reheating time will appear. The
Built-in Microwave Hood may be opened when the remaining time appears on the display. At this time, you may stir
or season food, as desired.
If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when popping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the time of day will be
displayed. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when cooking other foods,
ERROR
will be displayed, and the
microwave will turn off.
Check food temperature after cooking. If additional time is needed, continue to cook manually.
Each food has a cooking hint. Touch the 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 Instant Sensor and Sensor Cook.
Casserole lid
Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approximately 1/2 inch
to remain uncovered to allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch food.
Wax paper: Cover dish completely. Fold excess wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper, overlap two
pieces at least one inch to cover.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to escape away from you.
Instant Sensor
Instant Sensor allows you to cook or reheat many of your favorite foods by touching just one pad.
Two baked potatoes
1.
Touch Baked Potatoes pad.
2.
Touch START/Add-A-Minute.
NOTE:
Instant Sensor can be programmed with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 21.
The final result will vary according to the food condition (e.g. initial temperature, shape, quality). Check food for
temperature after heating. If additional time is needed, continue to heat manually.
