Defrosting and 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 on your microwave oven stands for a different
percentage of Cook Power (IO%, 50%, 80%, etc.). Many recipes in your MICRO MENUS”
Cookbook tell you, by name, which Cook Power to use. Recipes in other books and
magazines may tell you by number (5,6,7, etc.).
The following chart gives you the percentage of Cook Power each Number Pad stands
for, and Cook Power name generally used.
automatic 100% of full power HIGH
4 = 40% of full power
9 = 90% of full power
3 = 30% of full power DEFROST
8 = 80% of full power REHEAT 2 = 20% of full power
7 = 70% of full power MEDIUM-HIGH 1 = 10% of full power WARM
6 = 60% of full power
0 = no power (fan and light will be off)
5 = 50% of full power MEDIUM
Use Cook Power 3 to DEFROST frozen food before cooking. For suggested
defrost times, see the chart in your MICRO MENUS@ Cookbook.
