Quick Start Microwave heating or cooking may be quickly set at 100% power level for 1 -9 minutes. Use the number keys 1-9 to choose the desired minutes of cook time (this option will only work using the 1-9 numeric pads.) Press the number pad key for the desired number of minutes. The microwave will start a couple of seconds later. When the time runs out, three long tones sound, and "FOOD READY" shows in the display. Timed Heating 1. Use the number pad to enter the time in minutes and seconds. For example, to heat for 5 minutes and 30 seconds, enter 5 3 0. Note: For time sets that start with numbers 1 - 9, the remaining numbers must be entered within 2 second from the first key press, otherwise the Quick Start time will be used. 2. Press START. When the time runs out, three long tones sound, and "FOOD READY" shows in the display. SETTING THE MICROWAVE Setting Power Level Using the highest power level to heat foods does not always give the best results when some types of food need slower cooking, such as roasts, baked goods, or custards. Your oven has ten other power levels you may choose. To set to cook at a lower power level: 1. Use the number pad to enter the time in minutes and seconds. For example, to heat for 5 minutes and 30 seconds, enter 5 3 0. Note: For time sets that start with numbers 1 - 9, the remaining numbers must be entered within 2 second from the first key press, otherwise the Quick Start time will be used. 2. Press the Power Level pad until the desired level displays. For example, press once for high power (PLHI). Press Power Level four times to change to 70% power (PL-70). The selected power level appears in the display. 3. Press START. When the time runs out, three long tones sound, and "FOOD READY" shows in the display. Timer 1. Press Timer On-Off. 2. Use the number pad to enter the time in minutes and seconds. For example, to heat for 5 minutes and 30 seconds, enter 5 3 0. 3. Press Timer On-Off. The timer will start counting down. The microwave does not cook when just the timer is running. When the time runs out, three long tones sound. Multi-Stage Cooking For best results, some microwave recipes call for different power levels or different lengths of time for cooking. Your microwave may be set to change from one stage to another automatically (2 stages maximum). 1. Use the number pads to enter the time for the first stage. 2. Press Power Level until the desired power for the first stage is shown. 1. Use the number pads to enter the time for the second stage. 2. Press Power Level until the desired power for the second stage is shown. 3. Press START. The display will show the time remaining in the first cooking stage. Three series of beeps will sound when the second cooking stage starts, and the display will show the time remaining for the second stage. When the second stage time runs out, three long tones sound, and "FOOD READY" shows in the display. 45
