The manual for the Magic Chef MCD1311ST Microwave can be downloaded in pdf format from the following site (follow the link then click the "Manuals" tab):
http://www.mcappliance.com/mwodetailpage.aspx?ModelName=MCD1311ST

If you don't have time to download, here's what the instructions state:

SETTING THE CLOCK
When the oven is first plugged in, the display will flash ":0" and a tone will sound. If the AC power ever goes off, the display shows ":0" when the power comes back on.

1. Touch CLOCK pad.
This is a 12 hour clock system.

2. Touch CLOCK pad once more.
This is a 24hour clock system.
NOTE: This oven has multiple clock system. If you want 12 hour clock system, omit this step.

3. Enter the correct time of day by touching the numbers in sequence.

4. Touch CLOCK pad.
The display stops blinking, and the colon start blinking. If you selected 12 hour clock system, this digital clock allows you to set from 1:00 to 12:59. If you selected 24 hour clock system, this digital clock allows you to set from 0:00 to 23:59.

5. Touch STOP/CLEAR pad.

NOTE: If you attempt to enter an incorrect time, the time will not be set and a error signal tone will sound. Touch the CLOCK pad and re-enter the time.

The owner's manual (online here) does not address it, so it is not intended to be changed by the user.

You would have to unplug the unit, remove the outer case, and located the bulb, usually on the right side in or near the air duct in front of the magnetron.

You can take the bad bulb to a grocery store, home center, or big box store to match it up.

let me know if this helps this has a split screen and a side screen on the left side it gives the different parts groups and then a picture of the parts and description on the bottom screen and a look at how it's put together on the top screen with the parts numbered.

It or any other counter top microwave can be placed into a "cubby hole" type of installation, as long as there is enough space on all sides of the unit for ventilation, as specified in the owner's manual.

(Yours is here)

Plus, there must be an opening for air flow.

Try Ace Appliance who can cross reference most of these megatron tubes. Most of the time, its getting the access to the tube that will take up most of your time inside the microwave. Also, another good place to find these parts is Daewoo website.

Hello, I have been repairing microwaves for years, and it sounds like you do have a bad magnatron tube, the magnatron tube generaly runs between $65.00 and $120.00 so the answer to your question about fixing the microwave verses replaceing it, that depends on how old the microwave is, how much you paid, and if you want to put the money into for the tube, and then you also have the labor of haveing it put in if you do not know how too do it safely.. If you want to attempt to repair it and replace the mag tube, I would be more than happy to give you the instructions to do so safely!!! If you decide to fix it, send me a reply to this message, and i will furnish you with a phone number to reach me at to give you instructions...........hope this helps......p.s. I do not charge for any information i give you.....

Probably a bad magnetron tube. If you dont hear that tell tell buzz when it is running then that is a good indication of a bad mag tube.
