It will not. Once food is done cooking the end of cycle tones sound off, but that is it.From the user manual:TonesTones are audible signals that cannot be turned off. These tonesindicate the following:One tone�� Valid entry�� Control lock activated or deactivatedTwo tones�� End of stage in multistage cooking�� Invalid entryThree tones�� End of Timer countdownFive tones�� End of cycle

There should be two beeps - one for when the iron is pre-heated and ready for the batter, and another after the waffles are ready. If you are using a light setting, it might beep very soon (within seconds) after you pour the batter in. This is when you should remove the waffles. I mistakenly thought it was the indicator that the iron was back to temperature after I opened it quickly to pour the batter in, but in fact, they were done that quickly. Are you failing to get a beep even using different settings (light/medium/dark)? If you aren't getting the pre-heat beep followed by a second beep, I would return the iron and/or call the manufacturer. Good luck!

Yes, it beeps when you set each setting.For example, once you press a preset button like 'Toast', 'Bake' etc..., then on heat setting and then on time setting.You can rotate the knob as much as you want back and forth but when you press it to set, it beeps once.Also, it beeps few times when pre-heat is done, few minutes or a minute before cooking is done and then when it's done.And, no you cannot change noise volume.Also, it's not noise. Why anyone would consider a beep from oven or microwave NOISE is over my head.It's NOT noise but a needed feature.But, it's not an issue so don't make it a big deal like bunch of others do here.I actually like it since it tells me my settings are being set.

No. And that was quite annoying to me because it was very loud. I was comparing lots of microwaves, and I thought this one had that feature. I was disappointed to find out it doesn't. I think it's the only one of their models that does not.

I do not lmicrowave that length of time on my plates or with my bowls; but I have for 2-3 minutes and as with all items, When removing from microwave I use caution, as they can be warm/hot to touch. I do not use my microwave to cook food on my plates or in my bowls, I use it to reheat food.

Okay. I just looked in the little instruction booklet that came with the microwave. And I could not find anything mentioned there about turning the sounds off. So if there is a way to do this.. I don't know how one would do it.So I guess no, probably not. Sorry.

It does beep when it's done. There are no instructions on silencing the beep. Sorry. I like it telling me when it's done.

I don't believe so. Checked the manual to be sure, and saw nothing about turning off the beep sound. The beep isn't what's loud on the microwave though. It's just the sound it makes while running.

I don't know if you mean how loud is the unit when it is operating, or how loud is the "beep" that tells you your food is ready, so I'll answer both. When it is operating it is almost silent. The beeps at the end are soft. To my mind they're not loud enough. On a scale of 1 - 5 I'd give them a 2 or 3.

IMPORTANT: For those out there that do not like a loud beep. You can turn it off. It's in the manual. At the same time push and hold the "Toast" & "Bagel" buttons for 5 seconds. This will deactivate the beeping. Unfortunately, it now does not beep at the end of a cooking cycle either. It does beep a lot, but not a huge deal for us. However, if you do have a need for silence, it is easy to turn the beeping off. It's just as easy to turn it back on - hold the toast and bagel buttons again for 5 seconds and it's beeping again. Hope this helps someone out there!

I have a toaster oven that I hardly ever use, and it's small. I can put in a dinner size plate into the microwave. I usually cook for myself and find myself re-heating previously cooked foods, like veggies and leftovers. The one really fabulous feature this microwave offers is a Re-heat food button. It works with the built in sensor. You put in your food that you want to re-heat, press the re-heat food button and press start. It automatically knows when to shut off. It hasn't overheated anything yet. For me that is a really handy feature.

It does stop beeping after a few minutes but not just one minute. I never paid attention to when it stops because then I'd stop it myself. It's very light weight so if you need to do something in another room and think you might get distracted or not hear it beep you can just take it with you and you'll hear when it beeps. I had mine for a few years and was very pleased with it. I just put another battery in but it didn't work anymore. Will order another one.

It beeps when you push the buttons and when it's preheated and when it's done. I don't know how you would make the noise lower or frankly why it's such a big deal. It's certainly not a deal breaker for me. I don't mind because it beeps as an alert. You will hear it and isn't that the point? :)

No, once the food its ready it beeps around 5 times and then turns off itself, also the beeps are not loud and noisy.

It beeps a bit, not that loud ( not as loud as the microwave for example ) I don't think you can turn it off or make it louder.

I don't consider the beep terribly loud, and no, there are no "reminder beeps". It beeps when it's done. When using the defrost cycle, it beeps when it's halfway done and then again when it's done.

Hi Judy - Yes this does have a beeper. When the rice is done it beeps on and off for about 5-6 seconds and automatically switches to keep warm. Once you're done you can press the power button and it toggles off so no need to unplug.
