Changing the Power Level

The power level may be entered or changed
immediately after entering the feature time
for COOK TIME, TIME DEFROST, ADD
30 SEC or EXPRESS COOK. the power
level may also be changed uring the time
countdown.
1. Press COOK TIME.
2. Enter cooking or defrosting time
3. Press POWER LEVEL.
4. Select desired power level 1-10.
3. Press START/PAUSE.
Variable power levels add flexibility to
microwave cooking. The power levels on
the microwave oven can be compared to
the surface units on a range. Each power
level gives you microwave energy a certain
percent of the time. Power level 7 is
microwave energy 70% of the time. Power
level 3 is energy 30% of the time. Most
cooking will be done on HI which gives you
100% power.
Power Level 10 will cook faster but food may
need more frequent stirring, rotating or turning
over. A lower setting will cook more evenly
and need less stirring or rotating of the food.
Some foods may have better flavor, texture
or appearance if one of the lower settings is
used. Use a lower power level when cooking
foods that have a tendency to boil over, such
as scalloped potatoes.

Power Levels

Countertop Microwave Oven
Rest periods (when the microwave energy
cycles off) give time for the food to "equalize"
or transfer heat to the inside of the food. An
example of this is shown with power level
3—the defrost cycle. If microwave energy did
not cycle off, the outside of the food would
cook before the inside was defrosted.
Here are some examples of uses for various
power levels:
Power Level 10: Fish, bacon, vegetables,
boiling liquids.
Power Level 7: Gentle cooking of meat and
poultry; baking casseroles and reheating.
Power Level 5: Slow cooking and
tenderizing for stews and less tender cuts of
meat.
Power Level 3: Defrosting; simmering;
delicate sauces.
Power Level 1: Keeping food warm;
softening butter.
