Hello, Linda -

Without knowing the make and model of microwave oven you are asking about I can only give general instructions. You can add the make and model of microwave by choosing Comment and adding the information there.

Generally, after placing whatever you want to heat or cook in a microwave save dish or on a microwave safe plate and place the food and dish inside the microwave and closing the door, you follow these steps:
- Using the key pad / number pad, press in the time you want the microwave to run
- Assuming there is a POWER button on the key pad, press that button
- Most likely a P will display
- On the keypad, press 50 (for 50 %) or maybe just 5
- Press START

This web page provides detailed instructions:

Best wishes.

How do i change the power setting on a Sharp carousel microwave

Which model of Sharp microwave do you have?

For the SMC1441CB, after setting the cook time, press the power level button and then the appropriate digits for the percentage of full power to use. For full power, press power level then 1 and then 0. For 50% power, press power level then press 5.

For the SMC0710BB, after setting the cook time, press the Power button until you see the desired power level displayed on the LCD screen. Press Power once to get 100% power. Press Power 6 times to get 50% power.

For the R-659YW, you set the power before setting the cooking time. You press the Power button several times to get to the desired power level. Pressing Power 7 times will have the microwave cook with 40% of its full power level.

Many current Sharp appliance manuals are available on their product page or the Sharp support page. The current Sharp microwaves are listed here: http://www.sharpusa.com/ForHome/HomeAppliances/Microwaves/Models.aspx?facet:configurationfilter=Countertop . Other appliance manuals are available when you enter the model number in the search bar at http://www.sharpusa.com/Support.aspx .

I hope this helps.

How do I set the power at 50%?

After first setting the cook time---then hit the power level button and hit the number 5 (for 50%) and then start. Power level can also be changed while running by hitting power level button and selecting 1 through 10. For example level 3 is 30% for defrosting.

How to set power settings

Set the time as you normally would to cook your food: i.e. 60 seconds. Hit the power button; 100 will pop up on the screen, as in 100 % of power, enter 50 for 50% power, 70 for 70% etc. Food will cook more evenly this way, not burnt to a crisp on the outside, cold in the center.

Power Setting

It depends on the brand and model, but usually it's something like:

Cook Time > 2 > 0 > 0 > Power > 4 > Start, where 4 is 40%, 5 is 50%, etc.
