SPECIAL NOTES FOR DEFROSTING BY
TIME
• After pressing START key, the display will count
down remaining defrost time. The oven will beep
during the defrost cycle. At this time open the
door and turn the food if needed and remove
any portions that have already thawed. Press the
START key to resume the defrost cycle.
• When heating has finished you will hear beeps.
DEFROSTING TIPS
• When using the defrost weight feature, the
weight entered should always be pounds (valid
entries are from 0.1 to 6.0 pounds).
• Use both defrost weight and defrost time
features for raw food items only. Defrosting
gives best results when food to be thawed
is a minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a
true freezer). If the food has been stored in a
refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a
temperature of 5° F or below, always program a
lower food weight or lower cook time to prevent
cooking the food.
• If the frozen food is stored outside the freezer
for up to 20 minutes, enter a reduced cook time
or weight.
• The shape of the package will alter the
defrosting time. Shallow rectangular food
packets defrost more quickly than a deep frozen
block of food.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.
Separated frozen pieces of food defrost better.
• Shield warm areas of food with small pieces of
foil if they start to become warm.
• You may use small pieces of aluminum foil to
shield food items like chicken wings, leg tips and
fish tails, but do not allow the foil to touch the
oven cavity walls when defrosting.

SUGGESTIONS FOR GETTING THE BEST
RESULTS
To help you achieve the best possible results
from your microwave oven, read the following
suggestions below;
• Storage temperature
Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take
longer to cook than the same foods would at
room temperature.
• Size
Small pieces of food cook faster than large ones.
Pieces similar in size and shape will cook more
evenly when cooked together. For more even
results, reduce the power levels when cooking
large pieces of food.
• Natural moisture
Very moist foods cook more evenly because
microwave energy heats water molecules very
efficiently.
• Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetable from
the outside to the center to distribute the heat
more evenly. This will allow the food to cook
OPERATION
15
faster. Constant stirring is not necessary.
• Turn over items
Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts or
whole cauliflower halfway through the cook
time. This will help to expose all sides equally to
microwave energy.
• Food placement
Place delicate areas of food items, such as
asparagus tips, toward the center of the
turntable tray.
• Food arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken
pieces or salmon, with the thicker or meatier
parts toward the outside of the turntable tray.
• Let the food stand
After removing the food from the microwave,
cover the food with foil or a casserole lid and let
it stand to finish cooking. This will help the food
finish in the center and avoids overcooking the
out edges, The length of stand time depends on
the density and surface area of the food items.
• Wrapping in paper towels or waxed paper
Sandwiches and many other food types
containing pre-baked bread should be wrapped
prior to placing in the microwave to help prevent
the food items from drying out while heating.
