Humidity Sensor
What happens when using the Sensor Features:
The Sensor Features detect the increasing humidity released during cooking. The oven automatically
adjusts the cooking time to various types and amounts of food.

severely overcooked or burnt food. If food is undercooked after the countdown, use Cook Time for
additional cooking time.
NOTE: Sensor features will not operate when the oven is hot. If one of the sensor cooking buttons is
pressed when the temperature inside the oven is greater than 200°F, “OVEN TOO HOT FOR SENSOR
COOKING---USING ALTERNATE METHOD” will be displayed. The oven will automatically change to cook
by time (follow the directions in the display) or once the oven is cool enough, the sensor features will
function normally.
 The proper containers and covers are essential for best sensor cooking.
 Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with lids or vented plastic wrap. Never

 Be sure the outside of the cooking containers 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.
Dry off dishes so they don’t
mislead the sensor.
