GB
The power level function enables you to adapt the amount of
energy dissipated and thus the time required to cook or reheat
your food, according to its type and quantity. You can choose
between the power levels below.
Power Level Output
HIGH( ) 100% 1200W
MEDIUM( ) 70% 840W
LOW( ) 50% 600W
HIGH DEFROST( ) 30% 360W
LOW DEFROST( ) 15% 180W
The cooking times given in recipes and in this booklet correspond
to the specific power level indicated.
Power Level Max. Time
HIGH( ) 25 min.
MEDIUM( ) 40 min.
LOW( ) 40 min.
HIGH DEFROST( ) 50 min.
LOW DEFROST( ) 50 min.
The maximum time available per power level is shown
in the table above.
A defrosting time can be set up to 50 min. But the time is
reduced to 25 min (for HIGH) or 40 min (for MEDIUM or
LOW) the moment you change the current power level
(DEFROST) to other level such as HIGH, MEDIUM or
LOW.
Example:
If you set a defrosting time to 45min with the heating
mode at DEFROST and if you change the power level
to HIGH, the time will be automatically reduced to
25min.
You can set the power level first and the cooking time
next, and vice versa.
