AUTO DEFROSTING CHART

This chart shows which defrost course is recommended for your foods and some special directions for use with the "Auto Defrost" feature.

AUTO DEFROSTING INSTRUCTIONS.

For best results, remove fish/seafood meat/poultry from its original paper or plastic closed package

(wrapper).

Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam and juice close to the foods which can cause the outer surface of the

foods to cook.

When it is difficult to remove the wrap from the foods,

defrost the wrapped food for about a quarter of the total defrost time, which is displayed at the beginning of the defrost cycle. Remove the foods from oven and remove the wrap from foods.

Place foods in a flat glass baking dish or microwave roasing rack to catch drippings.

Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when removed from the oven.

For best results, turn foods over often as instructed by directions of "Auto Defrosting Chart".

When the directions require "turn over once", half-

"way the total defrosting time turn foods over.

When the directions require "turn over twice", turn

foods over one-third and two-thirds of the total defrosting time. The defrosting time shows in the display window when START key is touched.

The chart gives you standing times and sl;anding techniques needed to complete the thawing process.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The defrosting powe'r setting

(power level 30 DEFROST) should not be confused with this "Auto Defrost" feature. The defrost cooking level is a

low-energy setting used to cook foods that need slow, gentle cooking. Use the defrost cooking level to reheat many frozen convenience foods and also to defrost small bread items.
