Child Lock

The Child Lock disables all cooking function controls to prevent 
unintended use of the oven.

The timer, clock, cooktop light, exhaust fan, and some settings 
may still be used while the Child Lock is on.

To Activate Child Lock:

The oven must be off.

1. On “Home” screen, touch “More Choices.”

2. Touch “Hints & Settings.”

3. Touch “Child Lock.”

4. Touch “On/Off” to set lock, then touch “Finished.”

“Locked!” and a padlock icon will appear in the display 
screen if any attempt is made to start the oven. As long as the 
Child Lock is activated, a lock icon will appear and remain in 
the upper, left-hand corner of the “Home” screen.

Repeat to deactivate Child Lock.

Night Light

The Night Light can be programmed to automatically come on 
when low light levels are detected.

1. On the “Home” screen, touch “More Choices.”

2. Touch “Hints & Settings.”

6. On the “Set Level” screen, touch “+” or “-” to set desired 

Night Light activation level.

The display will show the current room light level as well as 
the activation level setting. The current room light level will 
fluctuate based upon current light conditions.

7. Touch “Finished.”

Display Brightness and Contrast

The display brightness and contrast may be adjusted to improve 
display visibility.

Display brightness can be set at full (display backlight is on), 
reduced (backlight is low and the screen is dim but still visible) or 
off (display is completely dark) after 2 minutes of inactivity.

Display contrast may be set from MIN to MAX.

To Set Display Brightness or Contrast:

1. On “Home” screen, touch “More Choices.”

2. Touch “Hints & Settings.”

3. Touch “Display Contrast” or “Display Brightness,” and follow 

directions to set desired levels.

When set, functions can be entered, with real displays and tones, 
without actually turning on the microwave generator or grill 
element. While functions are operating in the Learning Mode, the 
oven light will come on, the fan will run, and the turntable will 
rotate (if set ON).

While the Learning Mode is active, the book icon will appear in 
the upper, left-hand corner of the display.
