Changing the Power Level

The power levelmay be entered or changed

immediately after entering the feature time for

4. Selectdesired power leveli-i0.

3. PressStart/Pause. PressingStart/Pause is

not necessary for Express Cook buttons.

Variable power levelsadd flexibility to microwave

cooking.The power levelson the microwave oven
can be compared to the surface unitson a range.

Eachpower levelgivesyou microwave energy
a certain percent ofthe time. Power level 7 is

microwave energy 70% of the time. Power level

3 isenergy30% of the time. Mostcooking will be

done on HIwhich givesyou 100%power.
Power Level10will cook faster but food may

need more frequent stirring,rotating or turning
over.A lower setting will cookmore evenly and

need lessstirring or rotating of the food.
Somefoods may have better flavor, texture or

appearance if one of the lower settings isused.
Usea lower power level when cooking foods that

have a tendency to boilover, such as scalloped
potatoes.

Restperiods(whenthe microwave energy cycles
off) give time for the food to "equalize"or transfer

heat to the insideof the food. An example of this
isshown with power level 3-the defrost cycle.If

microwave energy did not cycleoff, the outside
of the food would cook before the insidewas

defrosted.

Hereare some examplesof usesfor various
power levels.

Power Level10: Fish,bacon,vegetables, boiling
liquids.

Power Level 7: Gentlecooking of meat and
poultry; baking casserolesand reheating.

Power Level5: Slowcooking and tenderizing for
stews and lesstender cuts of meat.

Power Level2 or 3: Defrosting;simmering;
delicate sauces.

Power LevelI:Keepingfood warm; softening

About the time features.

Clock Display

Time Defrost allows you to defrost for a

selected length of time. Seethe Defrosting
Guide for suggested times. (Weight Defrost is
explained in the Auto Feature section.)

!. Press Defrost Weight/Time twice.

2. Enter defrosting time.

3. Press Start/Pause.

4.Turn food over when the oven signal.

5. Press Start/Pause.

When the oven signals, turn food over and

break apart or rearrange pieces for more even
defrosting. Shield any warm areas with small
pieces of foil. The oven will continue to defrost
if you don't open the door and turn the food.

Power level isautomatically set at 3, but
can be changed. You can defrost small
items quickly by raising the power level after
entering the time. Power level 7 cuts the

total defrosting time in about half; power

level 10cuts the total time to approximately
1/3. However, food will need more frequent

attention than usual.

Defrosting Tips

, Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be

defrosted in the package. Closed packages
should be slit, pierced or vented AFTER
food has partially defrosted. Plastic storage
containers should be partially uncovered.

, Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners can

be defrosted and microwaved. Ifthe food is
in a foil container, transfer it to a microwave-

safe dish.

, For more even defrosting of larger foods,

such as roasts, use Defrost Weight. Be sure
large meats are completely defrosted before
cooking.

, Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed

to sit out for more than one hour after
defrosting. Room temperature promotes the

growth of harmful bacteria.

,When defrosted, food should be cool but

softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return
to the microwave very briefly, or let it stand

a few minutes counts down.

A dull thumping noise may be heard during

defrosting. This is normal when oven is not
operating at High power.
