Cooking at lower cook powers
For best results, some recipes call for lower Cook
Powers. The lower the Cook Power, the slower
the cooking. Each Number Pad also stands for a
different percentage of Cook Power. Many
microwave cookbook recipes tell you by number,
percent or name which Cook Power to
use.
The following chart gives the percentage of
Cook Power each Number Pad stands for, and
Cook Power name usually used:
Automatic 100% of full power HIGH
9 = 90% of full power
8 = 80% of full power
7 = 70% of full power MED-HIGH
6 = 60% of full power
5 = 50% of full power MED
4 = 40% of full power
3 = 30% of full power MED-LOW
2 = 20% of full power
1 = 10% of full power LOW
0 = 0% of full power (fan and light will be on)
