Microwave System/Optimawave™

Technology

The microwave system featuring Optimawave™ Technology delivers a constant stream of microwave power – true high, medium and low power – to provide consistent, even results.

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 this microwave system deliver the selected power level continuously. This constant stream of microwave power helps to minimize overcooking of foods and messy food spatters.
