6.Setting “defrost by weight”

Set DEFROST BY WEIGHT for any weight up to 6 pounds. Because it is a more gentle defrost setting than “Speed Defrost”, it is especially good for meats which are dense in the center but vulnerable to overcooking on the edges. For meats as small as a pound of hamburger or delicate shrimp, choosing DEFROST BY WEIGHT will give more even thawed results than SPEED DEFROST setting. Choose DEFROST BY WEIGHT for large roasts.

•Check weight of meat. It must be in pounds and ounces. If label gives weight in pounds only, you can change the fraction of a pound to ounces using chart on page 11. Unwrap meat before defrosting. Touch DEFROST BY WEIGHT pad. Word prompt ENTER shows in display and 0’s show where LB and OZ should be entered. LB flashes until you enter pound(s) by touching correct number pad. When pound(s) has been entered, LB will stop flashing and OZ will flash. As soon as all these digits have been set, display will immediately show cook time. Ounce weights less than 10 must be preceded by a 0. As soon as three digits are set, display immediately shows cook time.

•Touch START/STOP pad to start oven. CODE flashes in display as time counts down. Interior light goes on, turntable rotates and fan sound is heard.

•After partial defrosting, oven beeps twice and stops. Interior light goes off but time remains on the display. This pause in operation is to allow turning over, rearranging or shield. After attending to meat appropriately, touch START to resume the time on display and finish cooking. After total cooking time, 4 long beeps sound and END appears in display. Touch RESET or open oven door to clear

END before starting another cooking function. Notes:

•Allow enough time for defrosting because it is more slow and gradual than SPEED DEFROST. With DEFROST BY WEIGHT, low power microwaving is interspersed within “resting” and “standing” periods where no microwave at all enter the oven. These no-microwave periods allow meat to equalize in temperature before next period of microwaving automatically comes on.

•“DEPROST BY WEIGHT” automatically sets the correct thawing time, but you must enter the food weight accurately. Weight must be in pounds and ounces. Place meat on microwave-safe rack in microwave roasting dish. Place meats fat-side down and poultry breast-side down.
