Power level is automatically set at 3, but can be changed.
You can defrost small items quickly by raising the power
level after entering the time. Powerlevel7 cuts the total
defiosfing time in about half; power level I0 cuts the

A dull/humping noise may be hemd during deflosfing.
This is normal when oven is not operating at Highpower.
DefrostingTips
m Foods fiozen in paper or plasdc can be deflosted in
the package. Closed packages should be slit, pierced
or vented AFTER fbod has parflally defrosted. Plastic
storage containers should be partially uncovered.
m Family-size, prepackaged fiozen dinners can be
defrosted and microwaved. If the food is in a foil
container, t_ansfer it to a microwave-sale dish.
m Foods that spoil easily should not be allowed Io sit out
tbv more than one hour after deflosfing. Room
mmperatme promotes the growth of harmful bacmfia.
m For more even deflosfing of linger foods, such as
masts, use Auto Defrost,Be sure lmge meats are
completely deffosmd befbre cooking.
m %qmn deflosmd, fbod should be cool but softened in
all meas. If still slightly iW, remm to the microwm_e
