what happens if you put a number like "290" into a microwave? Does it give you 2 minutes and 90 seconds? Or 290 seconds converted into minutes? Or something else? I'm too scared to try

>> No.11997595

The worst thing that could happen is the microwave beeps at you when you try to put in the 9.
The second worst thing to happen is the microwave automatically corrects to 3:30 upon the count down beginning.
The best thing to happen is the countdown starts from 2:90, so please video results

It depends on what the particular microwave is designed to do.

My microwave will count down from 90 seconds if I input it. Just try it cunt

>> No.11997647

>>11997590
most microwaves are programmed so that if you put a number above 60 in, it'll convert the whole number to seconds

but it depends

>>11997590
depends on the microwave, but mine does in fact give you 2 minutes 90 seconds, and will count down to 2:89, down to 2:00, then roll over to 1:59 and continue on normally

You'll have to learn to read and use microwave time. putting in 99 will cook food for 99 seconds, but entering 100 will only cook for 60 seconds, this is very important to understand. to convert real time to microwave time you multiply by .6. for example you want to cook something for 400 seconds. 400 x 0.6 = 240 so you'd enter 240 (shows up as 2:40). my microwave has a calculator to help with this but not all do.

Speaking of, this whole concept of "microwave time" sounds foreign to an European. I think here pretty much all microwaves have you input first minutes and then seconds.

Phone pads are rare, more likely you'll have minutes up/down and 10 seconds up/down buttons.
