Using the highest power level to heat foods with does not always give the best
results when some types of food need slower cooking, such as roasts, baked goods
or custards. Your oven has nine other power levels you may choose.
Example: to heat for 4 minutes at 70% power:
1. Press Cook Time.
2. Use the number pads to enter desired heating time (cook time may be set up to
99 minutes and 99 seconds).
3. Press Power Level pad once for power level 10 (100% power).
4. Use the number key to change the power level to 7. PL7 appears in the display
(70 % power).
5. Press START pad.
When heating has finished you will hear 5 beeps and "Good" will display.
Touch STOP pad or open door.
If at anytime your microwave recipe would require that the food be turned or require
you to stop the microwave during the cooking process you may do so after starting
the microwave with the START/Pause pad.
Example: To pause the microwave during cooking:
1. Touch START/Pause pad once.
2. Touch START/Pause pad again to resume cooking.
This time-saving feature will let you quickly add 30 seconds to any cook time
already set when cooking at a 100% power level. This feature may only be used
while cooking and with cook time remaining. Each press of this pad will add 30
seconds to the cook time.
Example: to add 1 minute of cook time at the default power level of 100%:
Press Plus 30 sec. pad twice.
Example: to defrost 1lb. (454g) of food with the default power level and cook
time determined automatically:
1. Press Defrost pad once. 0.0 will appear in the display.
2. Use the numeric pads to input weight of food to defrost in pounds (10 = 1lb.) You
may enter any weight from 0.1 to 6.0lbs.
3. Press START pad.
When defrosting has finished you will hear 5 beeps and "Good" will display.
Touch STOP pad or open door.
Note: The weight amount must be a valid entry for this feature to start. A valid
weight entry is 0.1 to 6.0 pounds.
