Clock Setting:

Microwave Cooking:

To use microwave cooking, press the microwave button. The display will show "P100" (100% power). Pressing the microwave button repeatedly or using the adjustment buttons allows selection of power levels: P100 (100%), P80 (80%), P50 (50%), P30 (30%), or P10 (10%). After confirming the power level, set the cooking time (from 0:05 to 95:00) using the adjustment buttons and start cooking.

Grill or Combination Cooking:

Press the microwave button once to display "P100", then press it repeatedly or use the adjustment buttons to select grill (G), Combi 1 (C-1: 55% microwave, 45% grill), or Combi 2 (C-2: 36% microwave, 64% grill) modes. Confirm the mode, set the cooking time (0:05 to 95:00), and start cooking. In grill mode, the oven will beep twice at half the cooking time, prompting the user to turn the food for better grilling.

Quick Start:

In standby mode, pressing the quick start button initiates 30 seconds of cooking at 100% power. Each subsequent press adds 30 seconds, up to a maximum of 95 minutes. This also applies during microwave, grill, combi cooking, or time defrost modes.

Defrost By Weight:

Press the defrost by weight button once to display "dEF1". Use the adjustment buttons to select the food weight (100g to 2000g) and start defrosting.

Defrost By Time:

Press the defrost by time button twice to display "dEF2". Use the adjustment buttons to select the defrost time and start defrosting.

Auto Menu:

Press the auto menu button clockwise to select from predefined menus (A-1 to A-8) for pizza, meat, vegetable, pasta, potato, fish, beverage, and popcorn. Confirm the menu, select the default weight using the adjustment buttons, and start cooking.

Kitchen Timer:

Press the kitchen timer button once to display "00:00". Set the desired time (up to 95 minutes) using the adjustment buttons and confirm. The buzzer will ring five times when the time is reached. This timer is separate from the 24-hour clock system.

Multi-section Cooking:

Up to two cooking sections can be set. If defrosting is included, it must be the first section. The process involves setting the parameters for the first section (e.g., defrost by time), then setting the parameters for the second section (e.g., microwave cooking). The oven will beep between sections and five times at the end of cooking.

Inquiring Function:

During microwave, grill, or combination cooking, pressing the power button will display the current power level for 3 seconds. Pressing the clock button during cooking will display the remaining time for 3 seconds.

Lock-out Function for Children:

To activate, press the pause/cancel button for 3 seconds in standby mode. A long beep indicates activation, and the clock or "0:00" will display. To deactivate, press the pause/cancel button for 3 seconds again.
