Select the power level before entering the
cooking time. Press POWER LEVEL until the
desired power level appears in the display.
The maximum programmable cooking
time at Power Level 10 is 30 minutes. For
other Power Levels, the maximum cooking
time is 99 minutes and 99 seconds.
Variable power levels add flexibility to
microwave cooking. Power Level 7 (P7) is
microwave energy at 70% of full power.
Power Level 3 (P3) is microwave energy at
30% of full power. Most cooking will be
done on High (P10), which gives you 100%
of power.
A high setting (P10) 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.
Here are some examples of uses for various
power levels:
P10 High for fish, bacon, vegetables, boiling
liquids, etc.
P7 Medium high for gentle cooking of meat
and poultry, baking casseroles and
reheating
P5 Medium for slow cooking and tenderizing
for stews and less tender cuts of meat
P2 or Low for defrosting
P3
