DEFROST
Use this feature to defrost the foods shown in the Defrost
Chart below.
1. Touch Defrost pad.
2. See Menu Label. Select desired food by touching the
number pad. Ex: Touch 2 for steaks/chops.
3. Enter weight by touching number keys.
4. Touch Start /Add-A-Minute pad. The oven will stop so
that the food can be checked.
5. After the first stage, open the Drawer Microwave. Turn
steak over and shield any warm portions. Close the Draw-
er Microwave. Touch Start /Add-A-Minute pad.
6. After the second stage, open the Drawer Microwave.
Shield any warm portions. Close the Drawer Microwave.
Touch Start /Add-A-Minute pad.
7. After defrost cycle ends, cover and let stand as indicat-
ed in the chart below.
NOTE:
• Defrost can be programmed with More or Less Time
Adjustment. See page 16.
• To defrost other foods or foods above or below the
weights
allowed on the Defrost Chart, see Manual Defrost below.
• Check foods when oven signals. After final stage, small
sections may still be icy. Let stand to continue thawing.
Do
not cook until all ice crystals are thawed.
• Shielding prevents cooking from occurring before the
center of the food is defrosted. Use small smooth strips
of aluminum foil to cover edges and thinner sections of
the food.
MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the De-
frost Chart or is above or below the limits in the amount
column on the Defrost Chart, you need to defrost manual-
ly. You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previous-
ly cooked, by using Power Level at 30%. Follow the exact
3-step procedure found under To Set Power Level on page
10. Estimate defrosting time and Touch Power Level pad
eight times for 30% power. For either raw or previously
cooked frozen food the rule of thumb is approximately 4
minutes per pound. For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1
pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate
the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted
at the end of the estimated defrosting time, program the
oven in 1 minute increments on Power Level 30% until
totally defrosted. When using plastic containers from
the freezer, defrost only long enough to remove from the
plastic in order to place in a microwave-safe dish.
