Microwave cooking
This basic microwave cooking method allows
you to cook food for a desired time. In addition
to the maximum power level, you can select
different microwave power from 6 levels, HiW
to 80W for the foods that require slower
cooking.
Foods with high moisture content should be
cooked on maximum power as this is the
fastest cooking method and best maintains the
natural flavour and texture of the foods.
Manual defrosting
For manual defrosting (without operating the
Auto Defrost feature), use 150W. The blue
defrost symbol appears in the window display
whenever this power level is selected. To
speed up the defrosting of dense foods over
450g (1lb), the oven may be started on HiW
power for 1-3 minutes, then reduce to 150W
until defrosting is complete.
Example: To cook at 300W for 1 min 30 secs:
1 Touch Clear/Stop
2 Touch the Power button 4 times. The indicator lights up and flashes with the
W (Watts) symbol
3 Turn the Setting Control Knob clockwise/anti-clockwise until 1:30 is
indicated in the display window
4 Touch Start
At the end of the cooking time, the microwave power will automatically stop. The cooling fan and
oven light will still be on until the turntable has returned to its original position.
When the oven has switched off completely, 3 soft audible bell sounds will be heard and the
cooking symbol will flash. At this stage, it is possible to enter a further programme by setting a
cooking time and/or selecting a power level. If the power level is not adjusted, it will automatically
default to Power level HiW. However, if there is no action taken, after approximately 1 minute 2
further soft sounds will be heard and the window display will revert to the time of day.
