MICROWAVEPOWERLEVELS

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:

900 W used for fast cooking or reheating e.g. soup, casseroles, canned food, hot beverages, vegetables, fish, etc.

630 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.

450 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.

270 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.

90 W for gentle defrosting, eg. cream gateaux or pastry.

W = WATT

To set the microwave power level :

1.Input the time by pressing the TIME keys.

2.Press the MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL key until the desired power level appears on the display. (If the

MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL key is touched once, will be displayed. If you miss your desired level, continue pressing the MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL key until you reach the level again).

3.Press the +1 min /START key.

NOTE: If the power level is not selected, 900 W is automatically set.
