COOKING AT LOWER 
POWER LEVEL

HIGH power cooking does not always 
give you the best results with foods that 
need slower cooking, such as roasts, 
baked goods, or custards. Your oven has 
10 power settings in addition to HIGH.

Example: To cook food for 7 minutes 
30 seconds at 70% power.

1.  Enter the cook time.

2.  Touch 

POWER LEVEL

 pad.

3.  Enter the power level.

4.  Touch 

ENTER/ START

 pad. When the 

cook time is over, you will hear four 
beeps and 

END

 will display.

See cooking guide for Power levels, 
page 11.

COOKING WITH MORE 
THAN ONE COOK CYCLE

For best results, some recipes call for 
one Power Level for a certain length 
of time, and another Power Level for 
another length of time.Your oven can 
be set to change from one to another 
automatically, for up to three cycles if 
the first heating cycle is defrost.

Example: To cook food for 3 minutes 
at 100% power and then 70% power 
for 7 minutes 30 seconds.

1.  Enter the first cook time.

2.  Touch 

POWER LEVEL

 pad.

3.  Enter the power level.

4.  Enter the second cook time.

5.  Touch 

POWER LEVEL

 pad.

6.  Enter the power level.

7.  Touch 

ENTER/ START

 pad. 

 
 

When the cook time is over, you will 
hear four beeps and 

END

 will display.

POWER LEVEL

Example: To cook food for 8 minutes 
30 seconds at 100% power.
