To Turn Off/On Valid Entry Tones: Touch and hold the number 
pad “1” for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound. Repeat to turn tones 
back on.

To Turn Off/On All Tones: Touch and hold the number pad “2” 
for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound. Repeat to turn tones back on.

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.

When the Timer is in use, the microwave oven can also operate. 
To see the countdown for 5 seconds when the microwave oven is 
in use, touch TIMER SET-OFF.

To Set:

1. Touch TIMER SET-OFF.

If no action is taken after 1 minute, the display will return to 
the time of day mode.

2. Touch the number pads to set the length of time.

3. Touch TIMER SET-OFF or START.

If not touched within 5 seconds, “START?” will appear on the 
display. If not touched within 1 minute, the display will return 
to the time of day mode and the programmed function will be 
canceled.

When the set time ends, “END” will appear on the display and 
1 tone will sound.

Remember, touching CANCEL while a cook function is active 
in the display will cancel the cook function, not the Timer.

4. Touch TIMER SET-OFF at any time to cancel the Timer.

The length of time can be changed during the countdown by 
repeating the above steps.

Control Lock

The Control Lock shuts down the control panel pads to prevent 
unintended use of the microwave oven.

When the control is locked, only the Vent Fan and Light pads will 
function.

To Lock/Unlock Control: The microwave oven and Timer must 
be off. Touch and hold CANCEL for 5 seconds until 2 tones 
sound and a lock icon appears in the display. Repeat to unlock 
and remove the lock icon from display.

Vent Fan

The vent fan has 4 speeds ranging from 4 (fastest) to 1 (slowest). 
Zero (0) is off.

To protect the microwave oven, if the temperature from the range 
or cooktop below the microwave oven gets too hot, the vent fan 
will automatically turn on at speed 4. It may stay on for up to 
1 hour to cool the microwave oven. When this occurs, the vent 
fan cannot be turned off.

To Turn Vent Fan On/Off: Repeatedly touch the VENT FAN 
4 SPEEDS pad to cycle through the four speeds 4, 3, 2 and 1 and 
off, 0. “FAN” and the selected number will appear on the display 
for 2 seconds.

Cooktop Light

The cooktop light has 3 settings: high, night and off.

To Turn On/Night/Off: Touch LIGHT HIGH-NIGHT-OFF 
repeatedly to cycle through settings.

Demo Mode

The Demo Mode is ideal for learning how to use the microwave 
oven. When set, functions can be entered without actually turning 
on the magnetron. The microwave oven light will come on, the 
fan will run, and if on, the turntable will rotate.

To Turn On/Off: The microwave oven and Timer must be off. 
Touch and hold TIMER SET-OFF for 5 seconds until 2 tones 
sound and “d” appears in the display. Repeat to turn off and 
remove “d” from the display.
