NOTE
During defrosting, two beeps will sound to
remind you to open the oven door and
rearrange or turn over the food for better
defrosting performance.
The oven will not start if you happen to enter
weight in excess of the maximum
recommended.
For food exceeding these maximum weights,
use the SPEED DEFROST program.
To serve as a reminder, after a cooking or
defrosting function has completed, the oven
makes beeps every two minutes until the door
is opened or the CANCEL button is touched.
SPEED
DEFROST
SPEED DEFROST lets you customize
defrosting time, you can use it to defrost food
not covered, or its weight exceeds the max.
Allowable by DEFROST BY WEIGHT.
Suppose you want to set the oven to SPEED
DEFROST for 5 minutes and 30 seconds.
1.
Touch SPEED DEFROST button.
2.
Use TIME/WEI. to set time.
3. Touch
START
button.
NOTE:
1. If you try to completely defrost frozen
foods in the microwave oven, uneven
defrosting may occur due to the
differences in the thickness and shape of
the food. Drippings may also result, and
sometimes a part of the food cooks
although other parts still remain frozen. In
actual usage of frozen foods, you should
not normally completely defrost food, but
70% defrosting in the oven is quite good
for the next step of preparing the food for
cooking.
2. To defrost evenly, turn over or rearrange
the food during defrosting.
3. To defrost fatty meat, heat for a short time
in the oven and leave it to stand at room
temperature, or heat it intermittently until
defrosted.
4. When you defrost a whole chicken, or any
frozen food of irregular shape, wrap legs
or thin parts with aluminum foil. Otherwise
thin parts will be defrosted faster and
sometimes cooked before other parts
have properly defrosted. For big pieces of
meat, wrap the sides with aluminum foil
so that they will be uniformly thawed by
vertical microwaves only.
5. Ice should be removed at times during
defrosting.
