Inverter Microwave System, Cooking Power

Inverter Microwave System

The Inverter Microwave System is proven technology that delivers a constant stream of microwave power – true high, medium and low power.

Typically, microwave ovens operate on HIGH power only. For example, to achieve a 50% power level (“medium”) in a typical microwave oven, the oven operates 50% of the time at HIGH power and 50% of the time OFF.

In contrast, microwave ovens utilizing the Inverter Microwave System deliver the selected power level continuously. This constant stream of microwave power helps to minimize overcooking of foods and messy food spatters.

Sensor Cooking

The Inverter Microwave System features the 6th Sense™ cooking system. A humidity sensor in the oven cavity detects moisture and humidity emitted from food as it heats. The sensor adjusts cooking times to various types and amounts of food. Sensor cooking takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.

Cooking Power

Many recipes for microwave cooking specify which cooking power to use by percent, name or number. For example, 70%=7=Medium-High.
