- 700W: Medium-high power, for faster cooking.
- 900W: High power, for quick heating and boiling.
Setting Cooking Time
Rotate the bottom knob to set the cooking time, up to a maximum of 35 minutes. The timer will count down and emit a sound signal when cooking is complete.
Defrosting Function
The bottom knob also includes a defrost setting, adjustable by time or weight. For defrosting, select the appropriate weight or time on the defrost scale. The microwave will automatically adjust power for optimal defrosting.
