As you get to know your microwave oven, you may find that a particular setting is too low or too high for the results you
desire.
To set “Multi-Power”, touch POWER then touch number (single digit, 1-9). For example, to set power level 30, touch POW-
ER and “3”. The display window will show “30”.
If you want to change to the highest power level instead of power level 30, touch STOP/CLEAR once and reset.
If you want to change to power level 50 instead of power level 30, touch “5” and the display window will show “50”.
FAST DEFROST
Your oven is equipped with an Auto Defrost feature which is the best defrost method for this oven.
FAST DEFROST is explained in order to show other defrosting possibilities.
To speed up the defrosting of dense food items over 450g, start on “HI”, then reduce to the 30 (DEFROST) setting.
1. Microwave on “HI” for 1-2 minutes per 450g of dense food items.
2. Then Microwave on 30 (DEFROST) for 3 minutes per 450g or until food is thawed
Defrosting time will be greatly reduced.
