The Minute/Second Timer

Using a Holding Time

The Minute/Second Timer has three timing

functions:

It operates as a minute timer.

It can be set to delay cooking.

It can be used as a hold setting after defrosting.

The Minute/Second Timer operates without microwave energy.

The Minute/Second Timer can also be used to program a “holding time” between microwave cooking functions. The time can range from one second to 99 minutes and 99 seconds. A holding or standing time may be found in some of your own recipes or in the Cooking Guide.
