SENSOR CENTER
Sharp's 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 level for various foods and quantities.
Using Sensor Settings:
1. After oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before
using Sensor Center.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and
the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any mois-
ture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The oven works with foods at normal storage tem-
perature. For example, popcorn would be at room
temperature.
4. Any Sensor Center selection can be programmed
with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 33.
5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the
chart should be cooked following the guidelines in
any microwave cookbook.
6. During the first part of Sensor Center, food name will
appear on the display. Do not open the oven door or
touch Stop/Clear during this part of the cooking cycle.
The measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this
occurs, an error message will appear. To continue cook-
ing, touch the Stop/Clear pad and cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from
the food, remainder of cooking time will appear.
Door may be opened when remaining cooking
time appears on the display. At this time, you may
stir or season food, as desired.
7. If  the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
popping popcorn, the oven will turn off, and the correct
time of day will be displayed. If the sensor does not
detect vapor properly when cooking other foods,
ERROR
   will be displayed, and the oven will turn off.
8. Check food for temperature after cooking. If addi-
tional time is needed, continue to cook manually.
9. Each food has a cooking hint. Touch Custom 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 Sensor Center for these foods.
1. Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended for
microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow  approxi-
mately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow steam
to escape. Plastic wrap should not ouch food.
3. 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.

Place in dish or casserole slightly larger than amount to be reheated. Flatten, if
possible. Cover with lid, plastic wrap or wax paper. Use covers such as plastic
wrap or lids with larger quantities of more dense foods such as stews. After
reheating, stir well, if possible. Re-cover and allow to stand 2 to 3 minutes. Foods
should be very hot. If not, continue to heat with variable power and time.
NOTE:
The Turntable On/Off Reheat, Popcorn,
Fresh vegetables and Poultry settings have
2 choices. Follow directions in the Interac-
tive Display to choose desired option.
At end, follow the directions in the display.
