Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven
Choosing cooking function
settings
The cooking functions discussed in the
“Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven” and
“Microwave Cooking” sections use Command
pads to choose cooking function settings.
Another way to choose cooking function set-

Number pads used to select a cook power,
food settings, or quantities. Food setting charts
found in the “Using CUSTOM REHEAT,”

CUSTOM COOK” sections list only Code pads
for food settings. The charts in “Using code
pads” in the “Microwave Cooking” section list
all the available Code pads.
