sure to check your Cookbook for specific codes for
specific recipes.

tant tOknow what the numbers mean and what the
sequence is. The first and second numbers, if set-

wavs the Power Level. For examde, 125 means 12
minutes at Power Level 5. NOTE: Your oven can
only be programmed to 99 minutes when using the
Cook Code control and the highest Power Level is
10 which is represented by "0". When setting a 2

second is power level.
