SENSOR POPCORNSENSOR OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Sensor Cook allows you to cook most of your favorite
foods without selecting cooking times and power levels.
The display will indicate sensor category during the initial
sensing period. The oven automatically determines
required cooking time for each food item.
When the internal sensor detects a certain amount of
humidity coming from the food, it will tell the oven how
much longer to heat. The display will show the remaining
heating time. For best results for cooking by Sensor,
follow these recommendations:
1. Food cooked with the sensor system should be at
normal storage temperature.
2. The glass tray and the outside of the container should
be dry to assure best cooking results.
3. Foods should always be covered loosely with
microwavable plastic wrap, waxed paper, or a lid.
4. Do not open the door or touch STOP/CLEAR during
the sensing time. When sensing time is over, the oven
beeps twice and the remaining cooking time will appear
in the display window. At this time you can open the
door to stir, turn, or rearrange the food.
SENSOR COOKING GUIDE
Appropriate containers and coverings help assure good
Sensor cooking results.
1. Always use microwavable containers and cover them
with lids or vented plastic wrap.
2. Never use tight-sealing plastic covers. They can
prevent steam from escaping and cause food to
overcook.
3. Match the amount to the size of the container. Fill
containers at least half full for best results.
4. Be sure the outside of the cooking container and the
inside of the microwave oven are dry before placing
food in the oven. Beads of moisture turning into steam
can mislead the sensor.

defrost cycle. The oven will not stop during the BEEP
unless the door is opened.
For best results:
• Remove fish, shellfish, meat, and poultry from its original
closed paper or plastic package (wrapper). Otherwise,
the wrap will hold steam and juice close to the foods,
which can cause the outer surface of the foods to cook.
• Form the meat into the shape of a doughnut before
freezing. When defrosting, scrape off thawed meat when
the beep sounds and continue defrosting.
• Place foods in a shallow glass baking dish or a on a
microwave roasting rack to catch drippings.
• Foods should still be somewhat icy in the center when
removed from the oven.AT

DEFROST TABLE
Example: To defrost for 2 minutes.
This feature allows you to choose the time you want to
defrost.
When the defrost time is over, four beeps will sound and
COOK END will display.
TIME DEFROST
Four defrost choices are preset in the oven. The defrost
feature provides you with the best defrosting method for
frozen foods, because the oven automatically sets the
defrosting times for each food item according to the
weight you enter. For added convenience, the AUTO
DEFROST includes a built-in tone mechanism that reminds
you to check, turn over, separate, or rearrange the food
during the defrost cycle. Four different defrosting options
are provided.
After touching ATUO DEFROST once, select the food
category. Available weight ranges for Meat, Poultry, and
Fish are 0.1 to 6.0 lbs. The available weight range for
Bread is 0.1 to 1.0 lb.

DEFROSTING TIPS
• When using Auto Defrost, the weight to be entered
is the net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds
(the weight of the food minus the container).
• Before starting, make sure you have removed any
of the metal twist-ties which often come with frozen
food bags, and replace them with strings or elastic
bands.
• Open containers such as cartons before they are
placed in the oven.
• Always slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging.
• If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place it in a
suitable container.
• Slit the skins, if any, of frozen food such as
sausage.
• Bend plastic pouches of food to ensure even
defrosting.
• Always underestimate defrosting time. If defrosted
food is still icy in the center, return it to the
microwave oven for more defrosting.
• The length of defrosting time varies according to
how solidly the food is frozen.
• The shape of the package affects how quickly food
will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more
quickly than a deep block.
• As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces.
Separated pieces defrost more easily.
• Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts
of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails, or
areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil does
not touch the sides, top, or bottom of the oven. The
foil can damage the oven lining.
• For better results, let food stand after defrosting.
(For more information on standing time, see the
“Microwave Cooking Tips” section.)
• Turn over food during defrosting or standing time.
Break apart and remove food as required.
To avoid risk of property damage:
Do not use rack to pop popcorn.
Rack must be on the four plastic supports
when used.
Use the rack only when cooking food on rack
position.
Do not cook with rack on floor of the oven.
METAL RACK
The metal rack gives you extra space when cooking in
more than one container at the same time.
To use rack:
1. Place rack securely in the four plastic supports.
• Rack MUST NOT touch metal walls or back of
microwave oven.
2. Place equal amounts of food both ABOVE AND
BELOW rack.
• Amount of food must be approximately the same to
balance out cooking energy.

COOKING
GETTING THE BEST COOKING
RESULTS
To get the best results from your microwave oven, read
and follow the guidelines below.
• Storage Temperature: Foods taken from the freezer
or refrigerator take longer to cook than the same
foods at room temperature. The time for recipes in
this book is based on the normal storage temperature
of the food.
• Size: Small pieces of food cook faster than large
ones, pieces similar in size and shape cook more
evenly. For even cooking, reduce the power when
cooking large pieces of food.
• Natural Moisture: Very moist foods cook more
evenly because microwave energy is attracted to
water molecules.
• Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables from
the outside to the center to distribute the heat evenly
and speed cooking. Constant stirring is not
necessary.
• Turn over foods like pork chops, baking potatoes,
roasts, or whole cauliflower halfway through the
cooking time to expose all sides equally to microwave
energy.
• Place delicate areas of foods, such as asparagus
tips, toward the center of the dish.
• Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken
pieces or salmon steaks, with the thicker, meatier
parts toward the outside of the dish.
• Shield, with Small pieces of aluminum foil, parts of
food that may cook quickly, such as wing tips and leg
ends of poultry.
• Let It Stand: After you remove the food from the
microwave, cover food with foil or casserole lid and let
it stand to finish cooking in the center and avoid
overcooking the outer edges. The length of standing
time depends on the density and surface area of the
food.
• Wrapping in waxed paper or paper towel:
Sandwiches and many other foods containing
prebaked bread should be wrapped prior to
microwaving to prevent drying out.
• Prepare the fish for cooking.
- Completely defrost the fish or shellfish.
- Arrange unevenly shaped pieces with thicker parts
toward the outside of the dish. Arrange shellfish in a
single layer for even cooking.
- The type of cover you use depends on how you
cook. Poached fish needs a microwavable lid or
vented plastic wrap.
- Baked fish, coated fish, or fish in sauce needs to be
covered lightly with waxed paper to keep the coating
crisp and sauce from getting watery.
- Always set the shortest cooking time. Fish is done
when it turns opaque and the thickest part begins to
flake. Shellfish is done when the shell turns from
pink to red and the flesh is opaque and firm.
• The Fish and Shellfish Cooking Table below provides
specific directions with Power Level and Cooking
Time settings for most types of fish and shellfish.

COOKING
Appetizers / Sauces / Soups
Cooking Appetizers: Tips and
Techniques
Recommended
• Crisp crackers, such as melba toast, shredded wheat
and crisp rye crackers are best for microwave use.
Wait until party time to add the spreads. Place a
paper towel under the crackers while they cook in
the microwave oven to absorb extra moisture.
• Arrange individual appetizers in a circle for even
cooking.
• Stir dips to distribute heat and shorten cooking time.
Cooking Sauces: Tips and Techniques
• Use a microwavable casserole or glass measuring
cup that is at least 2 or 3 times the volume of the
sauce.
• Sauces made with cornstarch thicken more rapidly
than those made with flour.
Cooking Soups: Tips and Techniques
• Cook soups in a microwavable dish which holds
double the volume of the recipe ingredients to prevent
boil-over, especially if you use cream or milk in the
soup.
• Generally, cover microwaved soups with VENTED
plastic wrap or a microwavable lid.
• Cover foods to retain moisture. Uncover foods to
retain crispness.
• Avoid overcooking by using the minimum suggested
time. Add more time, if necessary, only after checking
the food.
Not Recommended
• Appetizers with a crisp coating or puff pastry are best
done in a conventional oven with dry heat.
• Breaded products can be warmed in the microwave
oven but will not come out crisp.
Meat
Cooking Meat: General Directions
• Prepare the meat for cooking.
- Defrost completely.
- Trim off excess fat to avoid splattering.
- Place the meat, fat side down, on a microwavable
rack in a microwavable dish.
- Use oven cooking bag for less tender cuts of meat.
- Arrange the meat so that thicker portions are toward
the outside of the dish.
- Cover the meat with waxed paper to prevent
splattering.
• Tend the meat as it cooks.
- Drain juices as they accumulate to reduce
splattering and keep from overcooking the bottom of
the meat.
- Shield thin or bony portions with strips of foil to
prevent overcooking.
NOTE: Keep the foil at least 1 inch from the oven
walls, and do not cover more than one-third of the meat
with foil at any one time.
• Let the meat stand covered with foil 10-15 minutes
after you remove it from the oven. The internal
temperature of the meat may rise from 5-10°F during
standing time.
The Meat Cooking Table on the next page provides
detailed directions, Power Level, and Cooking Time
settings for most cuts of meat.
• Cook sauces made with cornstarch or flour uncovered
so you may stir them 2 or 3 times during cooking for a
smooth consistency.
• To adapt a conventional sauce or gravy recipe,
reduce the amount of liquid slightly.
• Stirring occasionally will help blend flavors, distribute
heat evenly, and may even shorten the cooking time.
• When converting a conventional soup recipe to cook
in the microwave, reduce the liquid, salt, and strong
seasonings.
