Q. When I press START, I hear a dull, thumping noise. What is it?

A. This sound is normal. It is letting you know the oven is using a power level lower than 10 (High).

Q. Can I defrost small items in a hurry?

A. Yes, but they will need more frequent attention than usual. Raise the power level after entering the time by touching the desired power level pad. Power Level 7 cuts the total defrosting time in about 1/2; Power Level 10 cuts the total defrosting time to approximately 1/3. During either, rotate or stir food frequently.
