Allows you to defrost for the length of time you select. See the Defrosting Guide for suggested times.

Power level 3 is automatically set. A dull thumping noise may be heard during defrosting. This sound is normal when the oven is not operating at Hi power.

You may defrost foods by using higher power levels; however, they will need more frequent attention than usual.

Power level 7 cuts the total defrosting time in about half; power level Hi cuts the total time to approximately 1/3. Rearrange or stir food frequently.

If you want to defrost foods at a power level other than 3, you must use the Time Cooking function by selecting power level and then entering the time.

Defrosting Tips

•Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be defrosted in the package. Tightly closed packages should be slit, pierced or vented AFTER food has partially defrosted. Plastic storage containers should be at least partially uncovered.

•Family-size, prepackaged frozen dinners can be defrosted and microwaved. If the food is in a foil container, transfer it to a microwave-safe dish.

•Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork, should not be allowed to sit out for more than one hour after defrosting. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.

•For more even defrosting of larger foods, such as beef, lamb and veal roasts, use Auto Defrost.

•Be sure large meats are completely defrosted before cooking.

•When defrosted, food should be cool but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to the microwave very briefly, or let it stand a few minutes.
