DEFROST CHART.

weight is 2.2 lb round to 2.0 lb If the steak’s weight is 2.4 lb round
to 2.5 lb.)
To enter weight, touch the desired DEFROST pad for a 0.5 lb
increase per touch. (Ex: touch four times for 2.0 lb.)
• Suppose you want to defrost a 2.0 pound steak.
1. Quickly touch
Steak/Chops
pad 4 times for 2.0 lb. The
microwave oven will start automatically.
The microwave oven will stop and directions will be displayed.

allowed on DEFROST CHART use time and 30% power. See

4. You may choose to enter the weight in tenths of pounds. This
procedure may be easier with larger weights, such as 3 pounds,
because it requires fewer touches. To program, touch desired

pounds or touch

aluminum foil. Remove any meat or fish that is nearly defrosted. Let stand, covered, for 10 to 20 minutes.
After each stage, if there are warm or thawed portions, rearrange or remove. Let stand, covered, for 10 to
