time is over one hour, the

(1 hour) remains. The display
then indicates minutes and
seconds and counts down
second by second.

most foods, and PL6 (MEDIUM)
for dense foods.

(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.

Caution:
DO NOT defrost food at a high
power setting. Doing so can
cause energy concentration at
a focused point, which can lead
to arcing and damage to the
oven. Use the "Defrost" function
instead.
