Using your microwave oven

Microwave oven controls

There are three parts in the control section:

-The Digital Display/Clock, and Indicator Lights

-Command Pads - Number Pads

Instructions for each control are covered on the following pages. Read them carefully.

When you first plug in the oven, a tone sounds and the Display will be blank. If after you set the Clock (page 6), the Display becomes blank again, it means your electricity was off for a while. Reset the Clock.

When you are not using the microwave oven, this is an accurate digital clock. When you are using the microwave oven, it displays time set- tings, temperature set- tings and Indicator Lights.

Each Command Pad, (except START,CANCEL and CLOCK SET] lights an Indicator Light on the digital display. The Indicator Light comes on when you touch the Command Pad.
