time may vary)
5. Approximately halfway through the
cycle, the oven will beep.
The indicator will say "TURN". Turn food and
then touch START/ENTER. If you don't open
the door and turn the food, the oven will beep
and continue defrosting but will take longer to
defrost.
NOTES:
If you do not enter a weight within 2 seconds,
ZIP DEFROST will prompt you to enter a weight.
You then have 1 minute to enter a weight and to
touch START/ENTER. If you do not do so, ZIP
DEFROST will be canceled.
If you enter a weight higher than the highest
weight or lower than the lowest weight (0.2 lb.)
allowed for your food setting, 3 tones will sound
and "RETRY" will appear on the display when you
touch START/ENTER. Then the maximum weight
allowed will be displayed.
If you touch ZIP DEFROST 4 times, the display
returns to the Meats setting.
If you need more or less defrosting time, do not
touch ZIP DEFROST again. Touch POWER
before you touch START/ENTER. (See "Changing
preset cooking times" in the "Getting to Know
Your Microwave Oven" section.)
See the "Zip defrost chart" later in this section
for defrosting directions for each food.
To defrost items not listed in the "Zip defrost
chart," use 30% cook power. Refer to a reliable
cookbook for defrosting information.
The shape of the package affects how quickly
food will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost
more quickly than a deep block.
As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces.
Separated pieces defrost more evenly.
Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts
of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails,
or areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil
does not touch the sides, top, or bottom of
the oven.
This chart shows you how to choose a type of food and the weights you can set for each type.
