Timed Defrosting
Even though your new control is equipped with
AUTO DEFROST, you also have the option of setting
your own defrost time.
To set your own defrost time:
1. Press POWER LEVEL
twice. The display will
show “DEFROST.”
2. Press the number pads to set
the defrost time. For example:
Press 5, 0, 0 to set 5 minutes.
3. Press START.
NOTE:
• Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be defrosted in
the package. Tightly closed packages should be slit,
pierced or vented after foods have partially
defrosted. Plastic storage containers should be
partially uncovered.
• Prepackaged frozen dinners can be defrosted and
microwaved. If foods are in a foil container, transfer
them to a microwave-safe dish.
• For even defrosting, some foods need to be broken
apart or separated during the defrosting time.
• Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish,
stuffings, poultry and pork, should not be allowed
to sit for more than one hour before or after
defrosting. Room temperature promotes the
growth of harmful bacteria.
