Pulse Button
Selects the pulse time setting. A cook time must be set first. The pulse time can then be set equal to
or less than the cook time. The pulse time will be the portion of cook time to operate in the pulse mode.
Pulse mode will start first. When pulse time elapses, the remainder of the cook time will be in the non-
pulse mode.
Use when cooking delicate product, such as strudel, muffins, cupcakes, meringue pies, etc., to keep

Use the Pulse Button to switch between the selection of pulse mode and non-pulse mode. A pulse time
of zero selects non-pulse mode.
The light in the Pulse Button will be lit when in the pulse mode.
