Whirlpool AVM 230 - Cooking Interruption; Time and Power

Auto crisp function
Your microwave oven has an automatic Crisp function for
ready made foods. This function enables you to quickly reheat
your food in one step to serving temperature. The oven needs
to know the type of food to be crisped and the net weight of
the food. Four food categories have been designed into your
oven. They will provide you with good end results. Each
subsequent press will select the next food category.
If the weight is less than the minimum weight:
Use the manual "Crisp function" to crisp the food manually.
Experience will give you the correct time for your favourite
small amount foods.
Frozen potato products im Frozen pizza
* Chips
* Wedges
* Gems
If the weight is greater than the maximum weight:
Divide the food into two or more pieces and proceed to Auto
Crisp each piece separately.
If it's not possible to divide the food, you must use the manual
"Crisp function" to crisp the food manually. With greater
amounts it is necessary to stir or turn the food during Crisping
and this is best done with the manual "Crisp function".
Auto Crisp is used only for ready made foods

To interrupt the cooking process:
If you wish to check, stir or turn the food just
open the door and the cooking process

interrupted. If you open the door please consider the following:
