Using Warm Hold; Sensor Cooking; Using Cook - Whirlpool GT4185SKQ2 Use & Care Manual

Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit in oven more than one hour
before or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or
sickness.
Warm Hold keeps hot, cooked food warm in your
microwave oven.
NOTES:
• Food cooked should be covered during Warm Hold.
• Pastry items (pies, turnovers, etc.) should be
uncovered during Warm Hold.
• Complete meals kept warm on a dinner plate
should be covered during Warm Hold.
• Do not use more than 1 complete Warm Hold cycle.
The quality of some foods will suffer with extended
time.
1. Put hot, cooked food in the oven and
close the door.
2. Touch WARM HOLD.
"WARM HOLD" scrolls, then "START" flashes until
you touch START.
3. Touch START.
Display will show "WARM."
4. To cancel Warm Hold, open door or
touch OFF/CANCEL.
SENSOR COOKING
Your microwave oven has a sensor that detects
the humidity released by the food. The amount
of humidity detected tells the oven how long to
cook or heat your food. The sensor is used by
3 special functions: COOK, REHEAT, and
POPCORN. The simple instructions for these
functions are on the following pages.
NOTES:
• If you want to cook by entering a time and cook
power, see "Microwave cooking tips" in the
"Cooking Guide" section.
• The oven should be plugged in at least 5 minutes
before sensor cooking.
• Room temperature should not exceed 95°F (35°C).
• Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and
the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off each with a
paper towel.
• The oven will not generate microwave energy for
approximately 28 seconds at the beginning of the
sensor cooking cycle.
• When covering foods, be sure to leave an opening
big enough for moisture to escape so that the
sensor can determine cooking or reheating time.
To use COOK:
1. Put the food in the oven and close the
door.
2. Touch COOK for desired food
type. (See the following chart.)
3. Touch START.
COOK will start automatically after a short delay.
