Standing Time and Cooking Automatically After Defrosting
For best results, allow the food to stand for a while after defrosting. This helps equalize the temperature of the food to provide more even defrosting.
When Cook 1 is set to follow QUICK DEFROST,the oven automatically provides a standing time equal to the time touched in for QUICK DEFROST. Cook 1will begin after the automatic standing time. There is no standing time between QUICK DEFROST and KEEPWARM.
For cooking automatically after defrosting:
I. Touch QUICK DEFROST and desired time.
2.Touch COOK 1.
3.Touch Number Pads for desired cooking time.
4.Touch COOK POWER. (If you want to cook at HIGH Cook Power, skip to step 6.)
5.Touch a Number Pad for desired Cook Power.
6.Touch START.
When defrost time ends, the oven automatically lets the food stand for the same amount of time used for defrosting. The QUICK DEFROST Indicator Light stays on and the Display counts down the standing time. During the standing time countdown, the oven will be dark and the fan will be off. When standing time is over, you will hear 2 beeps and Cook1 will begin. When Cook1 ends, “End” will show on the Display and 4 beeps will sound.
