Using PAUSE with QUICK DEFROST

If the defrosting instructions call for stirring or turning over the food in the middle of the defrost cycle, program PAUSE after QUICK DEFROST. See pages 24-25 for more information.

Standing time after defrosting

For best results, allow the food to stand for a while after defrosting. This helps equalize the tempera- ture of the food to provide more even defrosting.

When COOK 1 follows QUICK DEFROST, the oven automatically provides a standing time equal to the time touched in for QUICK DEFROST.

COOK 1 will begin after the automatic standing time. See “Cooking automatically after defrosting, ‘I page 18.

For a different standing time:

1.Touch QUICK DEFROST and the desired time.

2.Touch COOK 2.

3.Touch Number Pads for the desired standing time.

4.Touch COOK POWER.

5.Touch “0”for zero Cook Power.

6.Touch START.

When QUICK DEFROST is over, the oven will shut off. Two beeps will sound. The Display will count down the new standing time programmed.

About the Quick Defrost cycle

The microwave oven automatically divides the time set for the Quick Defrost cycle into three equal parts:

First part ............80% of full Cook Power Second part.. . .50% of full Cwk Power Third part ...........20% of full Cook Power

This automatic stepdown in Cook Power helps defrost food quickly and completely.

Changing or adding defrost time

You can change the defrosting time any time before or after touching START.

1.Touch QUICK DEFROST.

2.Touch Number Pads for new time.

3.Touch START.

Any new time setting made while Quick Defrost is operating will continue the defrosting at only 20% of full power.

The best time to change the setting is near the end of the Quick Defrost cycle.

1.Open the door.

2.Check the food with a long-tined fork; if center area is hard frozen, set additional time. Re- member that standing time is necessary to complete defrosting.

3.Close the door and touch START to continue the cycle if no additional time is needed. OR...

Touch in new instructions for additional defrost- ing time.
