MICROWAVE POWER LEVELS

There are 5 microwave power levels available as listed below.
The microwave power level is varied by the microwave energy switching on and off . When using power levels other
than HIGH (100%) you will be able to hear the microwave energy pulsing on and off as the food cooks or defrosts.
Generally the following recommendations apply:
800 WATT = HIGH - used for fast cooking or reheating e.g. for casseroles, hot beverages, vegetables etc.
620 WATT = MEDIUM HIGH - used for longer cooking of dense foods such as roast joints, meat loaf and plated meals, also for
sensitive dishes such as sponge cakes. At this reduced setting, the food will cook evenly without over cooking at the sides.
440 WATT = MEDIUM - for dense foods which require a long cooking time when cooked conventionally, e.g. beef casserole, it
is advisable to use this power setting to ensure the meat will be tender.
260 WATT = MEDIUM LOW - to defrost, select this power setting, to ensure that the dish defrosts evenly. This setting is also
ideal for simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and cooking egg custard.
130 WATT = LOW - for gentle defrosting, e.g. cream gateaux or pastry.

MICROWAVE COOKING

1. Prepare and place food in a suitable container (refer to "SUITABLE OVENWARE" ), position food/container directly onto the
middle of the turntable. Close the door.
2. Turn the MICROWAVE POWER CONTROL knob to the desired setting; any one of the fi ve microwave power levels.
3. Turn the TIMER/DEFROST GUIDE knob to the desired cooking/defrosting time and the oven will start automatically.
4. When cooking/defrosting is complete, the TIMER/ DEFROST GUIDE returns to "0" zero and the signal will sound. The
oven lamp will turn off automatically and the turntable stops rotating. Open the oven door, remove the food/container
carefully. Leave food to stand as required.
COOKING HINTS:
When the oven starts, the oven lamp will light and the turntable will rotate clockwise or anticlockwise.
If you wish to stop cooking before the cooking time has elapsed, turn the TIMER/DEFROST GUIDE knob back to "0" (off ), or
open the oven door. The oven door may be opened at any time during cooking. To continue cooking, close the door. If you
wish to change the cooking time during cooking, simply turn the TIMER/DEFROST GUIDE knob to the desired new setting.
When cooking/defrosting for less than 3 minutes, turn the TIMER/DEFROST GUIDE knob past the 10 minute mark, and then
back to the desired setting. The timer will then run more accurately.
To change the power level during cooking, turn the MICROWAVE POWER CONTROL knob to the desired setting.
WARNING:
Ensure the TIMER/DEFROST GUIDE is returned to "0" zero position at the end of cooking, or the oven will start automatically
when the oven door is closed.
