For best results many foods need to be cooked in two stages that is you begin cooking at one power level and then complete cooking on a second power level To program your Beyond Microwave Oven for two stage cooking 1 Select the desired power level for stage one by pressing POWER until the desired power level appears 2 Use the number pad to enter the cooking time in minutes and seconds For example to enter a time cooking time of 6 minutes and 45 seconds press in sequence 6 4 5 3 Next select the power level for stage two by pressing POWER until the desired power level is displayed 4 Set the desired cooking time for stage two by entering the desired minutes and seconds using the number pad 5 Press START At the end of stage one cooking stage two cooking will begin At the end of stage two cooking the oven will beep four times 4 Defrosting The Beyond Microwave Oven has two defrost modes Auto Defrost and Time Defrost Use Auto Defrost to thaw food based on weight Use Time Defrost to thaw for a specified amount of time Auto Defrost The Beyond Microwave Oven automatically calculates the correct defrosting time and power level based on the weight of the frozen food The maximum food weight that can be entered is six pounds If a higher weight is entered the oven will beep twice and the display window will return to the time of day To Auto Defrost 1 The frozen food must be removed from packaging and

6. The microwave oven has an electronic tube called a magnetron that produces microwaves very short radio waves The microwaves then pass through a wave guide and into the oven cavity The microwaves penetrate the food and cause water molecules within the food to vibrate extremely rapidly This vibration causes considerable friction or heat between the water molecules resulting in a rapid rise in temperature This type of heating is very efficient and the cooking time is therefore shorter than in a conventional oven The rate of heating depends on the moisture content shape volume and amount of food present Metallic materials totally reflect microwaves Non metallic materials such as glass paper and plastics are partially transparent to microwaves Microwaves do not directly heat the oven walls and most cooking utensils because they do not absorb microwave energy However they fre quently get very warm through being in direct contact with hot food Microwave Owner s Manual 1 Introducing the Beyond Microwave Oven Your Beyond Microwave Oven delivers the ultimate ease of use and convenience in microwave cooking Of course the Beyond Microwave Oven is ideal for routine microwaving chores warming your cup of coffee reheating leftovers defrosting that roast or baking potatoes and so on But the Beyond Microwave Oven can do so much more The Beyond Microwave Oven is packed with advanced features and the latest networking technology that
