TIME ENTRY pad is used to enter
cooking time for either manual entry
or programming. Cooking time ranges
from 1 second (00:01) to a total of 60
minutes (60:00) over four stages. If more
than 60 minutes of total microwave cooking time
is required, open door and inspect food before
beginning new cooking cycle.
Numbered pads begin cooking
programs or enter times and
power levels for “Manual Time .
Entry” cooking.
POWER LEVEL pad is used to set
microwave power level. When cooking, the
power level can be decreased for foods that require
slower more even cooking. Microwave power levels
range from 0% to 100% in 10% increments. If
cooking time is set and START pad pressed, oven
cooks at 100% power. When programming, to reset
power level to 100%, press power LEVEL pad.
START pad begins Manual Time Entry
cooking or restarts an interrupted cooking
cycle. When programming, use to save time
and power level, and to advance to next
user option.

mode and stop cooking during cooking
cycle.
Display (some models)
Some items in display can

Stages
This oven can be programmed to run 4 cooking
sequences consecutively. Each sequence is called
a stage. For example, the first cycle could be
programmed to defrost at 60% power, the second
to defrost at 30% power, the third to heat at 100%
power, and the fourth to hold warm at 10% power.
Total time for all cooking stages counts down.
User Options
User Options allow the user to program the oven
to perform in a way convenient to the user. The
beeps, maximum cooking time, and number of pre-
programmed cooking sequences can be changed.
X2 Pad
The X2 Pad increases a preset cooking time
by a percentage of
the original cooking time. The user specifies the
percentage and it can be changed for individual
cooking sequences. This feature is very useful
for cooking multiple servings of foods such as
potatoes or slices of pizza.
