Two Stage Cooking - Daewoo KOT-170U Use And Care Manual

Power Level Cooking Guide
The power levels on your microwave oven can be
compared to the surface units on a range. HIGH
(power level 10) or full power is the fastest way to
cook and gives you 100% power.
Each power level gives you microwave energy for
a certain percent of time, for example, power level
7 is microwave energy 70% of the time. Most of
your cooking will be done on HIGH (Power Level
10). A lower setting will cook more evenly and
with less attention given to stirring or rotating the
food. Some foods may have better flavor, texture or
appearance if one of the lower settings is used. You
may wish to use a lower power level when cooking
foods that have a tendency to boil over, such as
scalloped potatoes. Cooking times will increase as
the power level decreases.
