door.
2. Touch COOK TIME and number pads to

to set the cook power for the first cycle.
4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 to set the cooking
time and cook power for each additional
cycle.
5. Touch START.
After the first cycle is complete, 2 tones sound and
the next cycle(s) will count down.
6. At the end of the cooking time:
