My microwave beeps when it’s done. And then keeps beeping every 30 seconds until you open the door. Very important safety feature, I guess

- octo888 1y agoThat's weird! A normal oven would continue cooking the food, dishwashers need the steam to escape to start drying, clothes get creased in tumble dryers...but a microwave ? Just why?
- praash 1y agoI constantly forget my food in the microwave for hours at a time.
- brettermeier 1y agoLet it beep 3 times maximum(!), if you keep forgetting, you probably weren't very hungry.

- hypeatei 1y agoMine does too, so I disabled the sounds by holding the "2" button for a few seconds. Might differ by manufacturer but hopefully yours has that option.
- igouy 1y agoToshiba -- When the sounds turn off, long pressing on 8 for 3 seconds, it sounds a long beep and the sound turn off. All the buttons has no beep when they are pressed, including the ending cooking sounds is turn off too.
- marcosdumay 1y agoThat's every microwave that I have ever seen. I don't know the reason either. And it's not like those machines are silent when they are running, so you would need some sound to identify that they are not...
- Zak 1y agoI learned recently that most of them have a way to turn off the sound. It's usually hidden and requires the manual or a web search to figure out.
