 SENSOR COOKING CONDITION
Using the SENSOR  function, food is cooked without figur-
ing time, power level or quantity. When the oven senses 
enough steam from the food, it relays the information to its 
microprocessor which will calculate the remaining cooking 
time and power level needed for best results. When the food 
is cooked, water vapor is developed. the sensor "senses" 
the vapor and its resistance increase gradually. When the 
resistance reaches the value set according to the menu, 
supplementary cooking is started.
The time of supplementary cooking is determined by experi-
ment with each food category and inputted into the LSI.  An 
example of how sensor works: (Potatoes)
1.  Potatoes at room  temperature. Vapor is emitted very 
slowly.
 2.Heat Potatoes. Moisture and humidity is emitted very 
rapidly. You can smell the aroma as it cooks.
 3.Sensor detects moisture and humidity and calculates 
cooking time and variable power.
Cooking Sequence.
1.  Touch one of the SENSOR pads.
NOTE: The oven should not be operated on sensor      
  immediately  after plugging in the unit.  Wait two  
    minutes before cooking on SENSOR.
2.  The coil of shut-off relay (RY-1) is energized, but the 
power transformer is not turned on.
3. After about 16 seconds, the cook relay (RY-2) is 
energized. The power transformer is turned on, 
microwave energy is produced and first stage is started. 
The 16 seconds is the cooling time required to remove 
any vapor from the oven cavity and sensor.
NOTE:  During this first stage, do not open the drawer or    
   touch STOP/CLEAR pad.
4.  When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the 
food, the display switches over to the remaining cooking 
time and the timer counts down to zero.
  At this time, the drawer may be opened to stir, turn or 
season food.
5.  When the timer reaches zero, an audible signal sounds. 
The shut-off relay and cook relay are de-energized and 
the power transformer, oven lamp, etc. are turned off.
6.  Opening the drawer or touching the STOP/CLEAR pad, 
the time of the day will reappear on the display and the 
oven will revert to an OFF condition. When the timer 
reaches zero, an audible signal sounds.
