MULTI-STAGE COOKING
For best results, some recipes call for different cook
powers during different stages of a cook cycle. You
can program your oven to switch from one power
level to another for up to 2 stages.
NOTE: If you are using the AUTO DEFROST
feature as one of the cooking stages, it must be
programmed as the first stage.
