As you get to know your microwave oven, you may find that a particular setting is too low or too high for the results you desire.

Multiple-power control gives you the means to obtain greater precision in setting power levels. For instance, if you

want a power level between ROAST and REHEAT, you would set the time as usual: touch COOK CONTROL,

and then touch "7" and "5". The display window will show "75". indicating that your oven is set to run at

Power Level 75--halfway between ROAST and REHEAT.
