Inverter Microwave System
The Inverter Microwave System is proven technology that
delivers a constant stream of microwave power true high,
medium and low power.
Typically, microwave ovens operate on HIGH power only. For
example, to achieve a 50% power level (medium) in a typical
microwave oven, the oven operates 50% of the time at HIGH
power and 50% of the time OFF.
In contrast, microwave ovens utilizing the Inverter Microwave
System deliver the selected power level continuously. This
constant stream of microwave power helps to minimize
overcooking of foods and messy food spatters.
Sensor Cooking
The Inverter Microwave System features the 6th Sense cooking
system. A humidity sensor in the oven cavity detects moisture
and humidity emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts
cooking times to various types and amounts of food. Sensor
cooking takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.
Cooking Power
Many recipes for microwave cooking specify which cooking
power to use by percent, name or number. For example,
70%=7=Medium-High.
