The microwave oven can be set to cook at different cooking 
powers for various lengths of time, up to 3 stages, plus a Defrost 
cycle. Cook settings can be used in any order, except Defrost, 
which must be the first stage.
Sensor cooking cannot be done in stages.

time for first stage.

the end-of-cycle tones will sound.
7. Touch OFF/CANCEL or open the door to clear the display.
Sensor Cooking
A sensor in the microwave oven detects humidity released from 
the food as it heats, and adjusts the cook time accordingly.
Many sensor cycles require the covering of foods. Microwave-
safe containers or steamers with loose-fitting lids are 
recommended. The loose-fitting lid allows enough steam to 
escape to be detected by the sensor. When covering foods with 
plastic wrap, be sure to leave a large enough vent opening to 
allow the steam to escape.
NOTES:
The microwave oven should be plugged in for at least 
3 minutes.
The microwave oven cavity and the exterior of the cooking 
container should be dry.
The room temperature should not exceed 95°F (35°C).
If the door is opened during a sensor cycle, sensing will stop 
and the program will be canceled.
Sensor Cook
A sensor in the microwave oven detects humidity released from 
the food and automatically sets a cooking time based on the 
selected pad.
Use the following chart as a guide.
NOTE: When covering foods, make sure the vent opening is large 
enough for moisture to escape. This will allow the sensor to 
accurately determine cooking time.
To Use SENSOR COOK:
1. Place food on the turntable, and close the door.
2. Touch SENSOR COOK until the desired food type is 
displayed.
The microwave oven will automatically turn on after a brief 
delay.
When the cycle ends, “END” will appear in the display, and 
the end-of-cycle tones will sound.
3. Touch OFF/CANCEL or open the door to clear the display.
