(99.99). Always enter the seconds after the minutes, even if they are

recommended for foods such as cheese, milk and long slow 
cooking of meats. Consult cookbook or recipes for specific 
recommendations.

MaNUal dEFRoST

If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the SPEED 
DEFROST or AUTO DEFROST CHART or is above or below the 
limits in the AMOUNT column on the SPEED DEFROST or AUTO 
DEFROST CHART, you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously cooked, 
by using 

Power level

 for 30%. Follow the exact 3-step procedure 

found under TO SET POWER LEVEL. Estimate defrosting time and 
press 

Power level 

pad eight times for 30%.

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 microwave 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 microwave 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.
