required level. h lights up in the

stirred or turned during cooking, as with
a plated meal, it is best to use a lower
microwave power level.

required time.
Any time between 5 seconds and
60 minutes can be selected. Exception:

setting of 900 W, the maximum time you
can select is 10 minutes.
The time required depends on:

and cook more quickly than stored
vegetables.

food more evenly, and it is therefore
ready in a shorter time.

and a half for double the quantity.
