Microwave power levels

To set the microwave power level:

Rotate the TIMER/WEIGHT/POWER knob clockwise to select cooking time.

Press the COOKING MODE button once (microwave only).

To change the microwave power level rotate the knob until the desired power level is reached.

Press the START/QUICK button.

NOTE: If the power level is not selected, 800 W is automatically set.

Your oven has 5 power levels. To choose the power level

for cooking, follow the advice given in the recipe

section. Generally the following recommendations

apply:

800 W used for fast cooking or reheating e.g. soup,

casseroles, canned food, hot beverages, vegetables, fish,

etc.

560 W used for longer cooking of dense foods such as

roast joints, meat loaf and plated meals, also for

sensitive dishes such as cheese sauce and sponge cakes.

At this reduced setting, the sauce will not boil over and

food will cook evenly without over cooking at the sides.

400 W for dense foods which require a long cooking

time when cooked conventionally, eg. beef dishes, it is

advisable to use this power setting to ensure the meat

will be tender.

240 W (Defrost setting) 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.

80 W For gentle defrosting, eg. cream gateaux or

pastry.

W = WATT
