Display

Add a Minute

When power is first supplied to the microwave oven, a “:” will blink in the display. Touch CANCEL/OFF to stop the blinking. If the “:” blinks in the display at any other time, a power failure has occurred. Touch CANCEL/OFF and reset the clock if needed.

When the microwave oven is in use, the display shows cooking power, quantities, weights and/or prompts. When the microwave oven is not in use, the display shows the time of day. When the microwave oven is sensing, sensor animation (clockwise “racetrack” movement) will be active in the display.

The ADD A MINUTE control automatically starts the microwave oven at 100% power for 1 minute. Each additional touch of the control will add 1 minute of cook time, up to a total cook time of 10 minutes.

Cook time may be added to a cooking cycle at the current power level by touching ADD A MINUTE. During a manual cooking cycle, each touch of the ADD A MINUTE control will add 1 minute of cook time, up to a total remaining cook time of 10 minutes. The ADD A MINUTE control will not add minutes to a cycle that has a remaining cook time of 10 minutes or more.

Start

The START pad begins any function. If non-sensor cooking is interrupted, touching START will resume the preset cycle. If sensor cooking is interrupted, touching START will resume the cycle only if the sensor already has estimated the cook time, and the countdown is active in the display.

NOTE: To avoid unintentional operation of the microwave oven, a cooking function cannot be started if the microwave oven door has been closed for about 1 minute or more. “DOOR” will appear in the display until the door is opened and closed.

Cancel/Off

The CANCEL/OFF pad clears any incorrect command and cancels most functions except for the Control Lock and Demo Mode. It will not erase the time of day unless the display is in clock-setting mode. See “Clock” section.

The microwave oven will also turn off when the door is opened. Close the door and touch START to resume the cycle. If sensor cooking is interrupted by opening the door while the sensor is estimating the cook time, and the sensor animation is active in the display, the cycle will be canceled.

Dial

Use the dial to select options, set the clock, set cook time and cook power, select food type and amount/weight, and adjust doneness.

To Use: Push dial and release to pop it out. Repeat to return dial to its flush position after each use to avoid breakage of the dial.

Select

Use the SELECT pad to select a chosen function, and to set the following options:

■Select a setting or food type, and go to the next step.

■Set or cancel clock. See “Clock” section.

■Set weight measurements to oz or lbs.

■Set amount measurements to pieces, cups or servings.

See “Meal Prep” sections for details on using the SELECT pad with the automatic cooking, reheating and defrosting programs.
