High Cook Power - Whirlpool MW3500XM Use And Care Manual

Important things to remember to get the best cooking results.
l
ALWAYS cook food for the minimum recommended cooking time. If necessary, add
time in one or two minute periods, then check for doneness to avoid overcooking the
food.
l
Stir, turn or rearrange the food being cooked about halfway through the cooking time
for most even doneness with all recipes.
l
If a glass cover is not available, use waxpaper, paper towels or Saran" Wrap.Turn back
a corner to vent steam during cooking.
l
When using microwave recipes fromcookbooks or sources other than the
Cooking Guide, slightly longer cooking times will be needed for those recipes calling
for"HIGH"or"FULL"cook power. For example, add1 to 2 minutes to a 5 minute cooking
time. Cooking times at settings less than "HIGH" (such as "Cook Power 7" or "MEDIUM"]
would not need any adjustment.
