How to Use QUICK SET Control
The QUICK SET control provides
a shortcut code method for entering
time and the power level on your
microwave oven. QUICK SET
codes are only used for recipes
which need little or no attention,
and which require no change of
power level during cooking.
Recipes which require additional
ingredients, attention or change of
power level during microwaving
should be cooked in the usual
manner. Also, recipes with a
cooking time of less than one
minute or more than 99 minutes
cannot use codes.
To understand the QUICK SET
control codes, it is important to
know what the numbers mean and
what the sequence is. The first and
second numbers, if setting a 3-digit
code, indicate the amount of time
you desire; the last control entry
number is always the power level.
For example, 125 means 12 minutes
at power level 5.
N~E:
Your oven can only be
programmed to 99 minutes when
using the QUICK SET control, and
the highest power level is 10, which
is represented by "O:' When setting
a 2-digit QUICK SET control entry,
the first is time, the second is
power level. For example, 50
means 5 minutes at power level 10.
On the following page, many
frequently prepared foods and their
codes are shown. It's also easy to
make codes for many other recipes.
Just select one or two digits
representing the length of cooking
time desired, and a final digit for
the power level required. The
codes given on the guide represent
the minimum time needed to avoid
overcooking, which can dry out
food and make it tasteless and
tough. If you feel that more
cooking is needed, add additional
time by changing the first digit of
the code. You cannot add seconds
to the cycle time—codes are for
For Example:
QUICK SET
2-Digit
EEl

Power Level

QUICK SET

whole minutes only. If your recipe
calls for power level changes or
different amounts of time needed
between addition of ingredients,
you may set one code for the first
part of the recipe, then after
completion, set another code for
that period of time and power level.
Remember that QUICK SET
codes are for microwaving by time
only. If you are microwaving by
temperature, you must use the
Temp Cook or Auto Roast
function.
When the oven completes QUICK
SET program, it automatically
shuts off. It will then display
"End" and beep once a minute
until you either open the door or
touch the CLEAR/OFF
pad.
