Operation
Defrosting Automatically
To thaw frozen food, set the weight of the food and the microwave
automatically sets the defrosting time, power level and standing time.
1. Press the Auto Defrost button. The display shows “0.5 lbs.” (0.2Kg if
you have set your oven for metric measure).
(“ENTER” and “ Lbs.” will flash).
2. To set the weight of your food, press the Auto Defrost button
repeatedly. This increases the weight by 0.5 lb increments, up to 6.0
lbs (The Auto Defrost button will increase the weight by 0.2Kg up to
2.6kg if you are using metric measurement).
You can also use the number buttons to enter the weight of the food
directly.
The oven calculates the defrosting time and starts automatically.
Twice during defrosting, the oven will beep to let you know to turn the
food over.
3. Press the Pause/Cancel button, open the oven door, and turn the
food over.
4. Press the Start button to resume defrosting.
• See page 17 for the Auto Defrosting Guide.
Setting Cooking Times & Power Levels
Your microwave allows you to set up to two different stages of cooking,
each with its own time length and power level. The power level button
lets you control the heating intensity from Warm (1) to High (0).
One-stage Cooking
For simple one-stage cooking, you only need to set a cooking time. The
power level is automatically set to High. If you want to set the power to
any other level, you must set it using the Power Level button.
1. Use the number buttons to set a cooking time. You can set a time
from one second to 99 minutes, 99 seconds. To set a time over one
minute, enter the seconds too. For example, to set 20 minutes,
enter 2, 0, 0, 0 .
2. If you want to set the power level to something other than High,
press the Power Level button, then use the number buttons to enter
a power level.
Power Levels:
1 = PL:10 (Warm)
6 = PL:60 (Simmer)
2 = PL:20 (Low)
7 = PL:70 (Medium High)
3 = PL:30 (Defrost)
8 = PL:80 (Reheat)
4 = PL:40 (Medium Low)
9 = PL:90 (Sauté)
5 = PL:50 (Medium)
0 = PL:Hi (High)
3. Press the Start button to begin cooking. If you want to change the
power level, press Pause/Cancel before you press Start, and re-
enter all of the instructions.
Some recipes require different stages of cooking at different
temperatures. You can set multiple stages of cooking with your
microwave.
