Approximate watts as measured
As you get to know your microwave oven, you may find that a particular setting is too low or too high for
the results you desire.
Multi-power control gives you the means to obtain greater precision in setting power levels. For instance, if
you want a power level between ROAST and REHEAT, you would set the time as usual: touch MICRO
POWER, and then touch "7" and "5". The display window will show "75", indicating that your oven is set to
run at power level 75 -- halfway between ROAST and REHEAT.
