Timer

The timer has been combined with the range clock. Use it to time all your precise cooking operations. You’ll recognize the timer as the pointer that is different in color than the clock hands.

Minutes are marked up to 30, and hours are marked up to 4 on the center of the clock.

To set the timer, turn the knob to the left—without pushing in—until the pointer reaches the number of minutes or hours you want to time.

At the end of the set time, a buzzer sounds to tell you time is up. Turn the knob—without pushing in—until the pointer reaches OFF and the buzzer stops.
