Variable power levels add flexibility to your
microwave cooking. The power levels on your
l//icrow;lve ()veil CHII be coi//p;lred to tile
surthce units on a range. Each power level
gives you miciowave energy a certain percent
of the time. Power level 7 is microwave energy
70% of the time. Power level 3 is microwave
energy 30% of the time. Most cooking will be
done on High (power level 10) which gives
you 100% power.
Power level 10 will cook thster but tood may
need more h'equent stirring, rotating or
turning over. A lower setting will cook m ore
evenly and need less stirring or rotating of
tile ti)od.
Sollle [()ods lllav have better flavor, texture or
appearance if one of tile lower settings is used.
Use a lower power level when cooking toods
that have a tendency to boil ovec such as
scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when tile microwave energy
cycles off) give time for the tood to "equalize"
or transfer heat to tile inside of the ti_od. An
example of this is shown with power level 3--
tile det/"ost cycle. If microwave energy did not
cycle oil tile outside of the/i)od would cook
be%re tile inside was defl'osted.
