NOTES:
•If you do not enter a weight within 2 seconds, AUTO DEFROST will prompt you to enter a weight. You then have 1 minute to enter a weight and to touch START/ENTER. If you do not do so, AUTO DEFROST will be canceled.
•If you enter a weight higher than the highest weight allowed for your food setting, 3 tones will sound and “RETRY” will appear on the display when you touch START/ENTER.
•If you touch AUTO DEFROST 4 times, the display returns to the Meats setting.
•If you need more or less defrosting time, do not touch AUTO DEFROST again. Touch COOK POWER before you touch START/ENTER. (See “Changing preset cooking times” in the “Getting to Know” section.)
•See the “Auto defrost chart” later in this section for defrosting directions for each food.
•To defrost items not listed in the “Auto defrost chart,” use 30% cook power. Refer to a reliable cookbook for defrosting information.
For even, complete defrosting
•The shape of the package affects how quickly food will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than a deep block.
•As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces. Separated pieces defrost more evenly.
•Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails, or areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil does not touch the sides, top, or bottom of the oven.
