About changing the power level.
GEAppliances.com
The power level may be entered or
changed before entering the time for
Time Cook
.
Press
TIME COOK
. Press repeatedly to
select desired power level
0
to
HIGH
.
Enter cooking time.
Press
START.
You can view the power level during
cooking by pressing
TIME COOK
. Variable
power levels add flexibility to microwave
cooking. The power levels on the microwave
oven can be compared to the surface units
on a range. Each power level gives you
microwave energy a certain percent of the
time.
Power level 7
is microwave energy
70% of the time.
Power level 3
is energy
30% of the time. Most cooking will be
done on
High which gives you 100% power.
High power level
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
“equalize” or transfer heat to the inside
of the food. An example of this is shown
with
power level 3
—the defrost cycle.
If microwave energy did not cycle off,
the outside of the food would cook before
the inside was defrosted.
Here are some examples of uses for various
power levels:
High:
Fish, bacon, vegetables, boiling
liquids.
Med-High 7:
Gentle cooking of meat and
poultry; baking casseroles and reheating.
Medium 5:
Slow cooking and tenderizing
for stews and less tender cuts of meat.
Low 2 or 3:
Defrosting; simmering; delicate
sauces.
Warm 1:
Keeping food warm; softening
butter.
