Your oven has 5 power levels. To choose the power level
for cooking, follow the advice given in the recipe
section. Generally the following recommendations
apply:
800 W
used for fast cooking or reheating e.g. soup,
casseroles, canned food, hot beverages, vegetables, fish,
etc.
560 W
used for longer cooking of dense foods such as
roast joints, meat loaf and plated meals, also for
sensitive dishes such as cheese sauce and sponge cakes.
At this reduced setting, the sauce will not boil over and
food will cook evenly without over cooking at the sides.
400 W
for dense foods which require a long cooking
time when cooked conventionally, eg. beef dishes, it is
advisable to use this power setting to ensure the meat
will be tender.
240 W
to defrost, select this power setting, to ensure
that the dish defrosts evenly. This setting is also ideal
for simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and cooking egg
custard.
80 W
For gentle defrosting, eg. cream gateaux or
pastry.
W = WATT
To set the power, touch the
MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL
button until the desired level is displayed. If
MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL
button is touched once, will be displayed. If you miss your desired level,
continue touching the
MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL
button until you reach the level again.
If the level is not selected, the level 800 W is automatically set.
Check the display.
