Using the Pause key

Manual Operation

Using the Pause key

If at anytime your microwave recipe would require that the food be turned or require you to stop the microwave during the cooking process you may do so after starting the microwave with the START/Pause pad.

To pause the microwave during cooking:

1. Touch START/Pause pad once.

2. Touch START/Pause pad again to resume cooking.

Adding cook time (Plus 30 sec.)

This time-saving feature will let you quickly add 30 seconds to any cook time already set when cooking at a 100% power level. This feature may only be used while cooking and with cook time remaining. Each press of this pad will add 30 seconds to the cook time.

Example: to add 1 minute of cook time at the default power level of 100%:

Press Plus 30 sec. pad twice.

Setting Defrost (by Weight)

Example: to defrost 1lb. of food with the default power level and cook time determined automatically:

1. Press Defrost pad once. 0.0 will appear in the display.

2. Use the numeric pads to input weight of food to defrost in pounds (10 = 1lb.) You may enter any weight from 0.1 to 6.0lbs.

3. Press START pad.

When defrosting has finished you will hear beeps and "Good" will display.

Note: The weight amount must be a valid entry for this feature to start. A valid weight entry is 0.1 to 6.0 pounds.

Setting Defrost (by Time)

Example: to defrost food with the default 30% power level for 5 minutes:

1. Press Defrost pad twice. 0:00 will appear in the display.

2. Use the number pads to enter desired defrost time (defrost time may be set up to 99 minutes and 99 seconds).

3. Press START pad.

When heating has finished you will hear beeps and "Good" will display.

Note: Power levels cannot be changed for both defrost (by weight) or defrost (by time) because the defrost performance will be adversely affected.

Special notes for defrosting by time

After pressing START/Pause key, the display will count down remaining defrost time. The oven will beep twice during the defrost cycle. At this time open the door

and turn the food if needed and remove any portions that have already thawed. Touch the START/Pause key to resume the defrost cycle.

When heating has finished you will hear beeps.
