About changing the power level.

ge.com

The power level may be entered or 
changed before entering the time for 

Time Cook

.

Press 

POWER LEVEL 

repeatedly to select

power level 0 to HI.

Turn the dial to enter cooking time.

Press 

START.

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 70

is

microwave energy 70% of the time. 

Power

level 30 

is energy 30% of the time. Most

cooking will be done on 

HI 

which gives you

100% power. 

HI 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 30

—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:

HI:

Fish, bacon, vegetables, boiling liquids.

Med-High 70:

Gentle cooking of meat and

poultry; baking casseroles and reheating.

Medium 50:

Slow cooking and tenderizing

for stews and less tender cuts of meat.

Low 20 or 30:

Defrosting; simmering;

delicate sauces.

Warm 10:

Keeping food warm; softening

butter.
