Exhaust Fan

The exhaust fan has a range of speeds of 0-100%.

Two seconds after the last time the FAN ON/OFF pad is touched, the screen returns to the previous display.

The first time the exhaust fan is turned on after power is connected to the microwave oven, the fan will start at minimum speed. The next time the exhaust fan is turned on, it will start at the last speed used.
