3. MULTI-POWER COOKING

Many foods need slower cooking (at less than HIGH-POWER) in order to give you the best results. ln addition to HIGH-POWER there are two multi-power settings (MEDIUM and DEFROST). The “Microwave Cooking Recipes and Tables” sections of this book tell you which power setting is recommended for the food being cooked. Refer to these sections for detailed reference.

EXAMPLE: If you want to cook food at DEFROST for 1 minute 30 seconds:
