Defrosting and cooking at lower cook powers

For best results, some recipes call for lower Cook Powers, Lowering the Cook Power slows the cooking. The lower the Cook Power, the slower the cooking. Each Number pad on

your microwave oven stands for a different percentage of Cook Power (IO%, 50%. 80%, etc.). Many recipes in your Cooking Guide tell you, by name, which Cook Power to use.

Recipes in other books and magazines may tell you by number (5,6,7, etc.).

The following chart gives you the percentage of Cook Power each Number Pad stands for, and Cook Power name usually used.
