Cooking at lower cook powers

For best results, some recipes call for lower Cook Powers. The lower the Cook Power, the slower the cooking. Each Number Pad also stands for a different percentage of Cook Power. Many recipes in your MICRO MENUS@ Cookbook tell you, by number, which Cook Power to use. Recipes in other books and magazines may tell you by name (HI, MED, LO, etc.) or percentage (IO%, 50%, 80%, etc.).

The following chart gives the percentage of Cook Power each Number Pad stands for, and Cook Power name usually used:

automatic 100% of full power HIGH 9 = 90% of full power

8 = 80% of full power

7 = 70% of full power MED-HIGH

5 = 50% of full power MED

4 = 40% of full power
