It features a control panel with knobs for function selection and temperature control, a digital display for cooking time, and indicator lights for power and oven operation. The oven also includes timer functions such as a minute minder, duration setting (automatic switch-off after a set period), and end cook function (automatic switch-off at a specified time of day). A combined start and end time function allows for delayed cooking.
