Using Your Microwave Oven
Microwave oven controls
There are three parts in the control section:
-Display/Clock and Indicators
- Command Pads
-Number Pads
Instructions for each control are covered on the
following pages. Read them carefully.
When you first plug in the oven, the Display will
flash “88:88”. Touch STOP/CLEAR and “1 :OO”
will appear. If, after you set the Clock (page 1 l),
the Display again shows all 8’s, it means your
electricity was off for a while. Reset the Clock.

this is an accurate clock.

it displays time settings, cook powers, and
Indicators.
Command pads
