Power Levels and Time Variations
The power level function enables you to adapt the amount of energy
dissipated and thus the time required to cook or reheat your food,
according to its type and quantity. You can choose between the power
levels below.
The cooking times given in recipes and in this booklet correspond to
the specific power level indicated.
✉
The maximum time available per power level is shown in the table
above.
A defrosting time can be set up to 50 min. But the time is reduced to
25 min (for HIGH) or 40 min (for MEDIUM or LOW) the moment you
change the current power level (DEFROST) to other level such as
HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW.
Example: If you set a defrosting time to 45min with the heating mode at
DEFROST and if you change the power level to HIGH, the time will
be automatically reduced to 25min.
✉
You can set the power level first and the cooking time next, and vice
versa.
Stopping the Cooking
You can stop cooking at any time so that you can:
•
Check the food
•
Turn the food over or stir it
•
Leave it to stand
✉
If you want to cancel any cooking settings before starting cooking,
simply press CANCEL(
) once.
