Inverter technology allows you to moderate the energy level that is being transmitted by your microwave oven. This precision allows you to actually cook food instead of simply reheating it. Using an inverter microwave oven allows you to braise, steam, and even poach foods. Yet, it can all be accomplished in the quick cooking time you are used to when using a microwave. What Does the Genius Sensor Button Do? The Genius Sensor button gives you one-touch cooking in its finest form! The Panasonic 2.2 microwave has effectively taken the guessing out of defrosting, reheating, and cooking. The internal sensor measures the steam that is being produced as the food is being heated. The amount of steam will send signals to the microprocessor which can automatically calculate the needed cooking time. It can also adjust the power levels which assures a perfect result. The Other Great Features This Panasonic Inverter microwave oven is stacked with features including a turbo defrost system that uses a sequencing system to thaw foods in a quick and even fashion. Another extremely useful feature is the ability to maintain warmth. Soups, gravies, and sauces can be kept warm, without overdrying, while the other elements of a meal are prepared. Plus, the interactive menu screen acts as an assistant chef to help prepare everything from main courses to desserts in the Panasonic 2.2 inverter microwave. The language on the display can be adjusted to English, Spanish, or French. The abundance of features combined with the inverter technology is all packaged in a sleek Panasonic microwave black and stainless steel design compliments every style of kitchen decor.
