Clicking the Zoom in or out buttons will move the map to the next defined zoom level higher, or lower, than your current view. The zoom slider allows you to click and drag the slider up and down the range of available zoom levels. Clicking on the zoom to a defined area button allows you to draw a rectangle on the map to which the map will zoom to.

Please note that as well as using the zoom controls, if available, you can use the mouse wheel for zooming in and out.
