How to set the clock on a CDA microwave

Let's take a look! To learn how to change the time on a CDA microwave, either watch our short video or follow our written step-by-step guide below.

Step 1: Press the microwave 'clock/timer' button

To put your CDA microwave into clock-changing mode, press the 'clock/timer' button. When you press this button, the hour digit on the clock should start flashing, indicating that the microwave is now in clock-changing mode.

Step 2: Turn the microwave knob

You can now change the hour. To do this, simply turn the microwave's control knob. This will change the hour on the digital clock.

Tip: If the hour is already correct and you only want to change the minutes, you will still need to turn the knob first. Otherwise, pressing the 'clock/timer' button a second time without adjusting the hour will put the microwave into timer mode instead, which you don't want. Instead, simply turn the knob and adjust the clock forwards or backwards by one hour, then turn the knob back in the opposite direction to return it to the correct time again. Then proceed to the next step.
