How to Change the Clock on a Sunbeam Microwave

All Sunbeam microwaves offer the use of a clock. The clock provides timer functionality and enables you to reference the time in the event you need to take a pot off the stove at a certain time. The process for changing the clock varies depending on the model you own, but the overall process is very similar and intuitive for all models of Sunbeam microwaves.

Tap the Time/WEI button to cycle through the hours, tap the clock button again and then press the Time/WEI button to cycle though the minutes. Finally, press the time button again to exit the program.
