DefrostiW

With the Auto Defrost feature, the oven automatically sets the defrosting time and power levels for you. You choose the appropriate code number from 1 to 6 for the food you are defrosting, then enter the fd weight in pounds and tenths of a pound (See Conversion Guide below) and touch START. The oven calculates the defrosting time and changes power levels during defrosting to give even defrosting results.

When the oven inches approximately hdf of the total defrosting time, the display flashes “TURN;’ telling you to turn food over and will not continue defrosting until door is opened and START is touched again.

After defrosting time is complete, the oven automatically goes into a holding period as shown on the Automatic Defrosting Guide on this page. This holding period is necessary to finish the defrosting of the interior of the food.
