Add 30 Seconds

The ADD 30 SEC control (START pad) automatically starts the microwave oven at 100% power for 30 seconds, and adds 30 seconds of cook time with each additional touch of the control.

Time may be added to any manual cooking cycle in 30-second increments, at the current power level, by touching ADD 30 SEC during cooking.

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 5 minutes. The word “door” will appear in the display until the door is opened and closed.

Cancel

The CANCEL control clears any incorrect command, and cancels any program during cooking. It will not erase the time of day.

The microwave oven will also turn off when the door is opened. Close the door and touch START to resume the cycle.

The CANCEL control is also used to lock and unlock the control panel. See “Control Lock.”

Tones

Tones are audible signals that cannot be turned off. These tones indicate the following:

One tone

Valid entry

Control lock activated or deactivated

Two tones

End of stage in multistage cooking

Invalid entry

Three tones

End of Timer countdown

Five tones

End of cycle

Clock

This is a standard 12-hour clock (12:00-11:59). The Clock cannot be erased. If the Clock is not set, “0:00” will remain in the display when the microwave oven is not in use.

To Set:

The microwave oven and Timer must be off.

1.Touch TIMER/CLOCK twice.

2.Touch number pads to enter correct time of day.

3.Touch TIMER/CLOCK.

Timer

The Timer can be set in minutes and seconds, up to 99 minutes 99 seconds, and counts down the set time.

NOTE: The Timer does not start or stop the microwave oven.

Cook functions may be used while the Timer is counting down. When the cook function is active in the display, touch TIMER/ CLOCK to see the Timer count down for about 5 seconds.

To Set:

1.Touch TIMER/CLOCK.

2.Touch number pads to enter desired time.

3.Touch START.

When the set time ends, “End” will appear in the display and the end-of-Timer tones will sound.

4.Touch CANCEL while the Timer is active in the display (the time icon is flashing) to cancel the Timer.

Touching CANCEL while the cook function is active in the display cancels the cook function, not the Timer.

The time can be reset during the countdown by canceling Timer, then repeating the above steps.

Control Lock

The Control Lock disables the control panel pads to avoid unintended use of the microwave oven.

To Lock/Unlock Control: The microwave oven must be off. Touch and hold CANCEL for about 3 seconds, until the tone sounds and the control lock icon (see “Function Icons” in the “Display” section) appears in the display. Repeat to unlock.

The control lock icon will remain lit in the display until the control is unlocked.

If any control pad is touched while the control is locked, there will be no response from the control.
