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.

1. After the oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before       

using Sensor Cook.

2.  Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the 

interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture 
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 Cook selection can be programmed       

with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 16.

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 fi rst part of Sensor Cook, the 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 ap-
pear. 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 time will appear.      
The 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, 

 will be displayed, and the oven will 

turn off.

8. Check food for temperature or doneness after 

cooking. If food is not completely cooked, enter 
additional cooking time manually. Do not press 
Sensor Cook again as food may overcook.

9.  Each food has a cooking hint. Touch the CUSTOM      

HELP pad when the HELP indicator is lighted in          
the display. 

 

Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover  
recommended in the Sensor Cook chart for these 
foods.

1. Casserole lid.

2. 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.

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. 

EXAMPLE:
You can cook many foods by touching any Sensor        
pad and START/MINUTE PLUS. You don’t need to   
calculate cooking time or power level.

  Suppose you want to reheat canned chili.

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.

Pierce. Place on paper-towel-lined turntable. After cooking, remove from 
oven, wrap in aluminum foil and let stand 5 to 10 minutes.

Use only popcorn packaged for the microwave. Try several brands to        
decide which you like. Do not try to pop unpopped kernels.
