OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT’D)

AUTO WEIGHT DEFROST

Three defrost sequences are preset in the oven.

The defrost feature provides you with the best

defrosting method for frozen foods. The cooking

guide will show you which defrost sequence is

recommended for the food you are defrosting.
With the Auto Weight Defrost feature, the oven

automatically sets the defrosting time and power

levels for you.
The oven automatically determines required

defrosting times for each food item according to

the weight you enter.
For added convenience, the Auto Weight Defrost

Feature contains a built-in beep mechanism that

lets you check, turn over, separate or rearrange

as recommended in the Auto Defrosting AUTO

WEIGHT DEFROST GUIDE.
Three different defrosting levels are provided.

dEF 1 : GROUND MEAT

dEF 2 : POULTRY

dEF 3 : STEAKS/CHOPS

NOTE:

When you touch the START pad, the display changes

to defrost time count down. The oven will beep during

the DEFROST cycle. At this time, open the door and

turn, separate, or rearrange the food.

Remove any portions that have thawed.

Return frozen portions to the oven and touch

START to resume the defrost cycle.

OPERATING TIPS

• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and

poultry from its original closed paper or plastic pack-

age (wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam

and juice close to the foods, which can cause the

outer surface of the foods to cook.

• For best results, shape your ground meat into the

form of a doughnut before freezing. When defrosting,

scrape off thawed meat when the beep sounds and

continue defrosting.

• Place foods in a shallow container or on a microwave

roasting rack to catch drippings.

• Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when

removed from the oven.
