4. Variable Power Level
Variable power levels add flexibility to microwave cooking. Each power level
gives you microwave energy a certain percent of the time, for example, Power
Level 3 is microwave energy 30% of the time. Power Level 10 will cook faster but
food may need more frequent stirring, rotating or turning over. A lower setting
will cook more evenly and need less stirring or rotating of the food. Some foods
may have better flavor, texture or appearance if one of the lower settings is used.
Use a lower power level when cooking foods that have a tendency to boil over,
such as scalloped potatoes. Rest periods (when the microwave energy cycles off)
give time for the food to transfer heat to the inside of the food. An example of this
is with the defrost cycle (Power Level 3). If the microwave energy did not cycle
off, the outside of the food would cook before the inside was defrosted.
5. Multi-stage Cooking
Two or three cooking stages can be set. If defrosting is one of the stages, it
should be programmed as the first stage. It will beep once when one stage
finishes and the next stage will begin.
Note
Sensor menu and weight defrost cannot be set as one of the
multi-stages.
Tw o Stages Cooking Example
If you want to defrost the food for 5 minutes, then cook with 80% Microwave
power for 7 minutes. Follow these steps:
Stage 1: Defrost
Stage 2: Microwave
