How do I unmute my GE microwave?
If you’ve accidentally muted your GE microwave, don’t worry – it’s easy to unmute it. First, locate the “Mute” button on the microwave’s control panel.

If you’re still having trouble unmuting your microwave, consult the user manual for your specific model.
Does muting a GE microwave affect its performance?
Muting a GE microwave does not directly affect its performance. It solely eliminates the beeping sound emitted by the appliance when certain functions are completed. This allows for quieter operation without compromising the microwave’s functionality. However, one should note that some models may have a feature that automatically mutes the microwave when a specific power level is selected. In such cases, the microwave’s power output may be affected, potentially altering the cooking times. Therefore, it is always advisable to consult the user manual to ensure that muting does not impact the desired cooking results.
Can I still see the time and settings on a muted GE microwave?

The display will remain blank, and any attempt to interact with the microwave’s controls will be met with no response. To view the time or settings, you will need to unmute the microwave by pressing the “Mute” button again. Please refer to your microwave’s user manual for specific instructions on how to unmute it.
