Auto sensor cooking instructions The Auto Sensor allows you to cook your food automatically by detecting the amount of gases generated from the food while cooking.
- When cooking food, many kinds of gases are generated. The Auto Sensor determines the proper time and power level by detecting these gases from the food, eliminating the need to set the cooking time and power level.
- When you cover a container with its lid or plastic wrap during Sensor Cooking, the Auto Sensor will detect the gases generated after the container has been saturated with steam.
- Shortly before cooking ends, the remaining cooking time will begin its count down. This will be a good time for you to rotate or stir the food for even cooking if it is necessary.
- Before auto sensor cooking food may be seasoned with herbs, spices or browning sauces. A word of caution though, salt or sugar may cause burn spots on food so these ingredients should be added after cooking. CE118PFCX1_SWS_DE68-04220D_EN.indd 26 2013-08-28 5:58:57English - 27 03 OVEN USE Utensils & Cover for sensor cooking
- To obtain good cooking results with this function, follow the directions for selecting appropriate containers and covers in the charts in this book.
- Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with their lids or with plastic wrap. When using plastic wrap, turn back one corner to allow steam to escape at the proper rate.
- Always cover with the lid intended for the utensil being used. If the utensil does not have its own lid, use plastic wrap.
- Fill containers at least half full.
- Foods that require stirring or rotating should be stirred or turned toward the end of the Sensor Cook cycle, after the time has started to count down on the display. Important
- After installing the oven and plugging into an electrical outlet, do not unplug the power cord. The gas sensor needs time to stabilize in order to cook satisfactorily.
- It its not advisable to use the auto sensor cooking feature on a continuous cooking operation, i.e. one cooking operation immediately after another.
- Install the oven in a well ventilated location for proper cooling and airflow and to ensure the sensor will operate accurately.
- To avoid poor results, do not use the Auto sensor when the room ambient temperature is too high or too low.
- Do not use volatile detergent to clean your oven. Gas resulting from this detergent may aect the sensor.

Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry. The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven. Cookware Microwave-safe Comments Aluminum foil
Can be used in small quantities to protect areas against overcooking. Arcing can occur if the foil is too close to the oven wall or if too much foil is used. Crusty plate
Do not preheat for more than 8 minutes. China and earthenware
Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable, unless decorated with a metal trim. Disposable polyester cardboard dishes
Some frozen foods are packaged in these dishes. Fast-food packaging CE118PFCX1_SWS_DE68-04220D_EN.indd 32 2013-08-28 5:59:01English - 33 04 COOKWARE GUIDE Cookware Microwave-safe Comments

: Unsafe cooking guide MICROWAVES Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and sugar content. The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the food. COOKING Cookware for microwave cooking: Cookware must allow microwave energy to pass through it for maximum eciency. Microwaves are reflected by metal, such as stainless steel, aluminium and copper, but they can penetrate through ceramic, glass, porcelain and plastic as well as paper and wood. So food must never be cooked in metal containers. Food suitable for microwave cooking: Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard, soups, steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a microwave oven. Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food that would normally be prepared on a hob. Melting butter or chocolate, for example (see the chapter with tips, techniques and hints). Covering during cooking To cover the food during cooking is very important, as the evaporated water rises as steam and contributes to cooking process. Food can be covered in dierent ways: e.g. with a ceramic plate, plastic cover or microwave suitable cling film. Standing times After cooking is over food the standing time is important to allow the temperature to even out within the food.

CE118PFCX1_SWS_DE68-04220D_EN.indd 35 2013-08-28 5:59:01English - 36 REHEATING Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional ovens hobs normally take. Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about +18 to +20 °C or a chilled food with a temperature of about +5 to +7 °C. Arranging and covering Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat - they tend to overcook and dry out before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be more successful. Power levels and stirring Some foods can be reheated using 900 W power while others should be reheated using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W. Check the tables for guidance. In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower power level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up very quickly (mince pies, for example). Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again before serving. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive boiling of liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating. Keep them in the microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a plastic spoon or glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore spoiling) the food. It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if necessary. Heating and standing times When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken - for future reference. Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout. Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even out. The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another time is recommended in the chart. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with the safety precautions. REHEATING LIQUIDS Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched o to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating.
BABY FOOD: Empty into a deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well after reheating! Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Stir again and check the temperature. Recommended serving temperature: between 30-40 °C. BABY MILK: Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never heat a baby’s bottle with teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated. Shake well before standing time and again before serving ! Always carefully check the temperature of baby milk or food before giving it to the baby. Recommended serving temperature: ca. 37 °C. REMARK: Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to prevent burns. Use the power levels and times in the next table as a guide lines for reheating. Reheating Liquids and Food Use the power levels and times in this table as a guide lines for reheating.

Microwaves gently defrost frozen food in a short period of time. This can be of great advantage, if unexpected guests suddenly show up. Frozen poultry must be thoroughly thawed before cooking. Remove any metal ties and take it out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain away. Put the frozen food on a dish without cover. Turn over half way, drain o any liquid and remove any giblets as soon as possible.Check the food occasionally to make sure that it does not feel warm. If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield by wrapping very small strips of aluminium foil around them during defrosting. Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, stop thawing and allow it to stand for 20 minutes before continuing. Leave the fish, meat and poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting. The standing time for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity defrosted. Please refer to the table below. Hint: Flat food defrosts better than thick and smaller quantities need less time than bigger ones. Remember this hint while freezing and defrosting food. For defrosting of frozen food with a temperature of about -18 to -20 °C, use the following table as a guide. All frozen food should be defrosted using defrosting power level (180 W).

It operates while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. The turntable’s rotation makes the food brown more evenly. Preheating the grill for 3-5 minutes will make the food brown more quickly. Cookware for grilling: Should be flameproof and may include metal. Do not use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt. Food suitable for grilling: Chops, sausages, steaks, hamburgers, bacon and gammon rashers, thin fish portions, sandwiches and all kinds of toast with toppings. Important remark: Whenever the grill only mode is used, please remember that food must be placed on the high rack, unless another instruction is recommended. Microwave+Grill This cooking mode combines the radiant heat that is coming from the grill with the speed of microwave cooking. It operates only while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. Due to the rotation of the turntable, the food browns evenly.Three combination modes are available with this model: 600 W + Grill, 450 W + Grill and 300 W + Grill. Cookware for cooking with Microwave+Grill Please use cookware that microwaves can pass through. Cookware should be flameproof. Do not use metal cookware with combination mode. Do not use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt. Food suitable for Microwave+Grill cooking: Food suitable for combination mode cooking include all kinds of cooked food which need reheating and browning (e.g. baked pasta), as well as foods which require a short cooking time to brown the top of the food. Also, this mode can be used for thick food portions that benefit from a browned and crispy top (e.g. chicken pieces, turning them over half way through cooking). Please refer to the grill table for further details. Important remark: Whenever the combination mode (Microwave+Grill) is used, the food should be placed on the high rack, unless another instruction is recommended. Please refer to the instructions in the following chart. CE118PFCX1_SWS_DE68-04220D_EN.indd 39 2013-08-28 5:59:01English - 40 The food must be turned over, if it is to be browned on both sides.
