The microwave oven’s hood controls, on the lower, left side of the microwave oven (see “Parts and Features”) operate the vent fan and cooktop lights.
TRUCAPTURE® Vent Fan
The vent fan has 3 regular speeds: high, medium and low. The vent fan also has a max speed, which is the highest speed.
To protect the microwave oven, the vent fan will automatically turn on at high speed if the temperature from the cooking surface below gets too hot. It may stay on for up to 1 hour to cool the microwave oven. When this occurs, the vent fan cannot be turned off. After the microwave oven has cooled, the vent fan will automatically turn off.
The vent fan will automatically turn on at low speed during convection or grill cooking, and may stay on for up to 10 minutes after the cycle has ended.
NOTE: For optimal TRUCAPTURE® vent system performance, turn on the vent fan before using the cooking surface below. This will maximize steam capture.
To Operate Vent Fan: Press VENT FAN
to cycle through the settings: high, medium, low and off. Touch VENT FAN

The progress bar is a visual picture of the estimated running time of a sensor cooking cycle. It will appear at the beginning of sensor cooking functions. A horizontal bar appears below the word “Sensing,” and shows progress by the darkening of the bar left to right. Some time after the progress bar appears, it may be replaced by “Maximum Time Remaining” indicator and the estimated remaining time, which may fluctuate often. When sensing is finished, “Time Remaining” will appear with the actual remaining cook time.
The progress bar will also appear during microwave oven preheating.
