LOWER COOK POWERS
For best results, some recipes call for lower Cook Powers. Lowering the Cook Power
slows the cooking. The lower the Cook Power, the slower the cooking. Each number
pad on Your microwave oven stands for a different percentage of Cook Power. Many
recipes In your MICRO MENUS- Cookbook tell you, by number, which Cook Power to
use Recipes in other books and magazines may tell You by name (HI, MED, LO, etc ] or
by percentage (IO%, 50%, 80%, etc.).
The following chart gives you the percentage of Cook Power each number pad
stands for, and the Cook Power name usually used.
