USING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
AUTO/TIME DEFROST
The Auto/Time Defrost feature gives you two ways to
defrost frozen foods. Touch Auto/Time Defrost once
for Auto Defrost or twice for Time Defrost.
AUTO DEFROST
Four defrost choices are preset in the oven. The
defrost feature provides you with the best defrosting
method for frozen foods. The Auto Defrost list shows
which defrost setting is recommended for the food you
are defrosting. With the Auto Defrost feature, the oven
automatically sets the defrosting times for each food
item according to the weight you enter. For added
convenience, the Auto Defrost includes a built-in tone
mechanism that reminds you to check, turn over,
separate, or rearrange the food during the defrost
cycle. Four different defrosting levels are provided.
1. MEAT
2. POULTRY
3. FISH
4. BREAD
After touching the Auto/Time Defrost pad once, select
the food category by touching a number pad: 1 (MEAT),
2 (Poultry), 3 (Fish), and 4 (Bread). Available weights
for Meat, Poultry and Fish are 0.1 to 6.0 lbs (0.1 to
4.0kgs). The available weight for Bread is 0.1 to 1 lb
(0.1 to 0.5kg).
For best results:
• Remove fish, shellfish, meat, and poultry from its
original closed paper or plastic package (wrapper).
Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam and juice close to
the foods, which can cause the outer surface of the
foods to cook.
• Form the meat into the shape of a doughnut before
freezing. When defrosting, scrape off thawed meat
when the beep sounds and continue defrosting.
• Place foods in a shallow glass baking dish or on a
microwave roasting rack to catch drippings.
• Foods should still be somewhat icy in the center
when removed from the oven.
NOTE: After you touch Start/Pause, the display counts
down the defrost time. The oven will beep once during
the Defrost cycle. At this time, open the door and turn,
separate, or rearrange the food as needed. Remove any
portions that have thawed then return frozen portions to
the oven and touch Start/Pause to resume the defrost
cycle. The oven will not STOP during the BEEP
unless the door is opened.
