Timer

The Timer can be set in minutes and seconds, up to 99 minutes 99 seconds and counts down the set time.

NOTE: The Timer does not start or stop the microwave oven.

When the Timer is in use, the microwave oven can still operate. To see the time countdown for 5 seconds while the microwave oven is in use, touch TIMER.

To Set:

1.Touch TIMER.

If no action is taken after 1 minute, the display will return to the time of day mode.

2.Touch the number pads to set the length of time.

3.Touch START.

If not touched within 5 seconds, “START?” will appear on the display. If not touched within 1 minute, the display will return to the time of day.

When the set time ends, “END” will appear on the display and 1 long tone will sound.

4.Touch TIMER or CANCEL anytime to cancel the Timer.

If using the Timer during a cooking function, do not touch CANCEL to cancel Timer, as the cooking function will also cancel.

The time can be reset during the countdown by repeating the above steps.

Child Lock

The Child Lock shuts down the control panel pads to prevent unintended use of the microwave oven.

When the control is locked, only the Vent Fan and Light pads will function.

To Lock/Unlock Control: The microwave oven and Timer must be off. Touch and hold START for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound and a lock icon appears on the display. Repeat to unlock and remove the lock icon from display.

Vent Fan

The vent fan has speeds ranging from 1 (LOW) to 5 (HIGH). The first time the Vent Fan is turned on after power is supplied to the microwave oven, it will start at speed level 1. Each time the fan is turned on, it will start at the speed level that was used last.

To protect the microwave oven, the vent fan will automatically turn on at the HIGH setting if the temperature from the range or cooktop below gets too hot. It may stay on for up to one hour to cool the microwave oven. When this occurs, the VENT FAN pads will not function.

To Turn Vent Fan On/Off:

1.Touch VENT FAN ON-OFF pad.

2.Touch HIGHER or LOWER pad to increase or decrease the fan speed.

The display will show “FAN” and a number between 1 and 5 to indicate fan speed. After 2 seconds, the display returns to previous display.

Cooktop Light

The cooktop light has 3 settings: on, night and off.

To Turn On/Night/Off: Touch LIGHT ON-NIGHT-OFF repeatedly to cycle through settings.

Demo Mode

The Demo Mode is ideal for learning how to use the microwave oven. When set, functions can be entered without actually turning on the magnetron. The microwave oven light will come on, the fan will run and, if on, the turntable will rotate.

To Turn On/Off: The microwave oven and Timer must be off. Touch and hold TIMER for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound and “d” appears on the display. Repeat to turn off and remove “d” from the display.
