HOW TO USE THE KITCHEN TIMER

The Kitchen Timer

The Kitchen Timer has 3 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 Kitchen Timer operates without microwave energy.

Using a Holding Time

The Kitchen Timer can also be used to program a “holding time” between microwave cooking functions. The time can range from 1 second to 99 minutes and 99 seconds. A holding or standing time may be found in some of your own recipes or in a cookbook.

How to Time a 3-Minute Phone Call

Step 1: Touch KITCHEN TIMER pad.

Step 2: Touch number pad 3 and MINUTE pad (for 3 minutes and no seconds).

Step 3: Touch START. Display shows time counting down. The timer signals when time is up.

Programming Delayed Cooking

To delay cooking up to 99 minutes and 99 seconds, touch either MICRO COOK, TEMP COOK/HOLD or COMBINATION ROAST and enter cook time, temperature or code. Touch KITCHEN TIMER and enter number of minutes to delay cooking. When delaying Temp Cook/Hold or Combination Roast cooking, be sure probe is in food. Touch START. Timer will count down to zero and cooking will begin.

NOTE: Cooling fan comes on during delay time.

How to Defrost, Hold and Micro Cook
