Call for service. See the “Assistance or Service” section.
Time of Day/Timer Display
When the microwave oven is not in use, the display shows the
time of day or time countdown.
Number Codes
The oven is preset with shortcut number codes. A number code
includes one or more of the following; food category, cooking
power, cook time and food quantity or weight. See the code
charts in the “Custom Reheating,” “Custom Defrosting,”
“Popcorn,” “Soften and Melt,” and “EasyConvect™” sections for
additional information.
Start/Add a Minute
The Start/Add a Minute key controls 3 separate functions for the
single built-in microwave: Start, Add a Minute and Control Lock.
Start
The Start/Add a Minute key begins any upper or single oven
cooking function once enough data has been entered and the
door is closed.
If the Start key is not touched within 5 seconds after touching
another key, “START?” will appear on the oven display as a
reminder. If the Start key is not touched within 5 minutes after
touching another key, the oven display will return to the inactive
mode and the programmed function will be canceled.
If cooking is interrupted by opening the door, touching Start/Add
a Minute after the door is closed again will resume the preset
cycle (except for sensor cooking).
Add a Minute
Touching Start/Add a Minute when the microwave oven is off will
start 1 minute of cook time at 100% power. Touching Start/Add a
Minute while the microwave oven is operating will add cook time
to the current cycle by 1 minute. Multiple minutes can be added
by repeatedly touching Start/Add a Minute.
Control Lock
The Control Lock shuts down the control panel keys to avoid
unintended use of the oven. The Control Lock will remain set after
a power failure, if set before the power failure occurs.
When the control is locked, only the TIMER SET/START and
TIMER OFF keys will function.
The Control Lock is preset unlocked, but can be locked.
To Lock Control: Touch and hold START or START/ADD A
MINUTE for approximately 5 seconds, until “control locked”
appears on the lower text line and a lock icon appears in the
display.
To Unlock Control: Repeat to unlock and remove “control
locked” and lock icon from the display.
Off
The OFF key stops any upper or single oven function except for
the Clock, Timer and Control Lock.
The oven will also turn off when the door is opened. When the
door is opened, the element(s) and fan will turn off, but the oven
light will remain on. Close the door and touch START to resume
the preset cycle (except for sensor cooking).
The oven cooling fan may continue to operate even after an oven
function has been canceled or completed, depending on the
oven temperature.
Clock
This is a 12-hour clock. Before setting, make sure the oven,
Timer, and Timed Cooking are off.
