SETTING TWO-STAGE COOKING
• To set a 2-stage cook cycle. The first stage
is a 2 minutes cook time at 30% cook power
then a 4 minutes cook time at 70% cook

levels during a cook cycle. You can program your oven
for two power level stages during the cooking cycle.

MICROWAVE POWER LEVELS
For best results, some recipes call for different cook
powers. The lower the cook power, the slower the
cooking. Each number from 1 to 9 stands for a
different percentage of full cook power.
The following table gives the percentage of cook
power each number pad stands for, and the cook
power name usually used.
The table also tells you when to use each cook power.
Follow recipe or food package instructions if available.
NOTE:Refer to a reliable cookbook for cooking times
based on the 1000 Watt cook power of your
microwave oven.
