most foods, and PL6 
for dense foods. 

2. For defrosting, use PL3

(MED-LOW).

DO NOT OVERCOOK

: This 

oven requires less time to cook 
than older units. Overcooking 
will cause food to dry out and 
may cause a fire. A microwave 

oven’s

 cooking power tells 

you the amount of microwave 
power available for cooking.

for cooking is three. When 
operating, two beeps will 
sound between each stage. 
Five beeps will sound at the 
end of the entire sequence. 

Note: After running the oven 
at PL10 power continuously 
for 30 min, if the cook 
process is not complete, the 
oven will automatically adjust 
to PL8 power to protect the 
microwave and complete the 
cook cycle. 
If you want to cook again at 
PL10 power, you will need to 
wait 15 min before restarting.
