Update: Son of a bitch, it started beeping again.
It's a Tappan Series 110. Appears to be of 80s vintage.
It has:
1. Switch labeled "Clock" and "Timer"
2. Button labeled hour
3. Button labeled minute
I've tried
1. Setting the switch to "clock." The timer beeps constantly in this setting (although it is not terribly loud, it is annoying to the point of madness).
1a. Pressing the hour button changes the time by an hour. Pressing the minute button changes the time by a minute.
1b. Holding the hour and minute buttons individually do the same.
1c. Holding the hour and minute buttons at the same time do the same.
2. Setting the switch to "timer." This causes the beeping to stop until the timer counts down to zero, then it beeps loudly and annoyingly.
2a. Pressing the hour button increases the timer by 1 hour, up to 1:59
2b. Pressing the minute button decreases the time by 1 minute.
2c. Holding the hour and minute buttons at the same time increases the time to 1:59 and then decreases it by 1 minute rapidly.
2d. Reducing the time to 0:00 with the minute button causes the timer to beep incessently.
2d1. Pressing the minute button again once the timer is at 0:00 resets the timer to 0:59.
2d2. Changing the setting to "clock" when the timer is at 0:00 causes the timer to continue to beep (quietly). Changing the setting back to "timer" at that point sets the timer to 0:59.
Any ideas on how to turn this thing off before it drives me crazy? :| I'm about ready to take the thing apart and disable the timer entirely; I never use it anyway.
