Power Levels
The power level may be entered or changed immediately after entering the feature time for TIME COOK. The power
level may NOT be changed during time countdown.
1. Press TIME COOK.
2. Enter cooking time.
3. Press POWER LEVEL.
4. Select desired power level 1–10.
5. 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 percentage 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 High (power level 10) 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.
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:
High 10: Fish, bacon, vegetables, boiling liquids.
Med-High 7: Gentle cooking of meat and poultry; baking casseroles and reheating.
Medium 5: Slow cooking and tenderizing for stews and less tender cuts of meat.
Low 2 or 3: Defrosting; simmering; delicate sauces.
Warm 1: Keeping food warm; softening butter.
