Using Your Microwave Oven
Microwave oven controls
There are three parts in the control section:
- Display/Clock and Indicators
-Command Pads
-Number Pads
Instructions for each control are covered on the
following pages. Read them carefully.
When you first plug in the oven, a tone will
sound and the Display will show "88:88". Set the
clock to the correct time of day (page 12). If your
electricity goes off for a while and comes back
on, the clock will return to "88:88". Reset the
clock.
Display/clock and indicators
When you are not using the microwave oven, this
is an accurate clock.
When you are using the microwave oven, it
displays time settings, cook power settings and
indicators.
Command pads
l
Touch Command Pads to tell the microwave
oven what to do and in what order. A few
examples:
- CLOCK SET tells the oven you are going to
set the clock.
- START tells the oven to start. (See page 11
for information on the tone you hear when
touching any pad.)
l
Each Command Pad (except START, CANCEL,
and CLOCK SET) causes an Indicator to light
when you touch the Command Pad. While the
oven is running, an Indicator (or Indicators) will
be on to show what the oven is doing.
l
If you touch two instructions into the same
cycle, the second set of instructions will cancel
the first.
Number pads
Once you've touched a Command Pad to tell the
oven what you want it to do, you'll touch Number
Pads to tell it
