ABOUT SENSOR COOKING
Proper containers and covers are essential for best sensor cooking results.
Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with lids or vented
plastic wrap. Never use plastic containers with tight seals— they can
prevent steam from escaping and cause the food to overcook.
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.
Do not use this feature twice in succession on the same food portion — it
may result in severely overcooked or burnt food.
