can you use the timer and cook with it at the same time

I don't think so. When the timer is counting on, input to all the other controls seems to be blocked.

I have never tried this but I would think not because the cooking would be using the timer

I'm not sure what you mean, Donna. I always use the timer when I cook, rather than any automatic setting. I tend to doubt that you could push an automatic setting and then use the timer for some other purpose, though.

There's no auto-timer, so you can't set it for a certain number of cook time hours; you have to be physically present to turn it between settings.

I haven't personally tried it, but we were talking about that very thing this weekend. I don't know why not if you leave the cooker on manual and time it through the timer.

Yes. To cook you have to put the amount of time in. It shuts off when the time is up.

I have never tried it, but see no reason you can't---just set Timer-1 at 4hrs.----T2 at 8hrs.----T3 at 12 hrs----all 4 timers are seperately controlled---this timer has worked great for me, hope this helps.

There is a timer for up to 2 hours and then it will shut off. If you don't use the timer you would set the cooking temperature to a low value and you check the stock as it simmers. Saying that, we have not used it for more than an hour or so at one time but I don't see why you couldn't use it for a longer time. From the manual "The timer is an optional function. You can either choose one of the preprogrammed times or you can use the Cooktop without setting a time. We have had the Cooktop for almost 2 months and so far are very pleased with it's operation.

Yes you can - just the push of a button overrides the timers. With another push, the timers are back on without having to reset them. Just make sure you don't throw the instructions away if you don't use them every day, so you can remind yourself how it works if you forget. These are amazing timers!

No. The timer is just for the length of cook time and then it switches to a warm setting.

I would think you could plug it into a generic timer and the timer will turn on the slow cooker when you set it to do so.

using a separate timer WILL NOT WORK. a separate timer kills power, no power no program. no program, no cooking. you have to press a button to start it so a separate timer is useless ALSO put ice in it It will keep food from spoling and make your meat juicy. this HAS NO time, but the spoiled food concept can be outsmarted with icecubes

You can add a timer at your wall socket. I don't use one though. I adjust my heat so I don't overdo the food.

Yes you can. When timer is running; you can push "start/stop" button once, and timer will pause, when you push "start/stop" again, it will start from where you had stopped it.

yes, you could, but be aware that both sides heat at the same time. They do not heat individually.

I tried it. The Kitchen Timer button will not operate while the microwave oven is cooking.

You can set 3 separate times on the timer. each timer is separate, so you can have one going off in 10 min then another going off in 1 min the another going off in 15 minutes. Great timer for multiple dishes. hope this helps. Sally

Not that I am aware of. Also, in case you don't know, you can't program the timer and have something cooking in the microwave at the same time. I miss that feature of our old microwave...say timing something cooking in oven while steaming veggies in microwave, can't do. Otherwise, it's been a good microwave, no issues or problems.

No, you just have to check on your food. You can always set another timer in your kitchen, like the one on many stoves.
