For up to 20 seconds after cooking has started, turning the Settings dial will change the doneness value. There are 5 settings: default, “Hi 1,” “Hi 2,” “L 1” and “L 2.” The display shows “----” for the default setting.

Doneness cannot be adjusted for Defrost functions or for the Popcorn function.

Doneness cannot be decreased for Boneless Chicken Breasts function.
