Auto Defrost

Auto Defrost automatically sets the defrosting times and power levels to give even defrosting results for meats, poultry and fish weighing up to six pounds.

■Use the shelf when defrosting items too large to fit the turntable.

■Remove meat from package and place on microwave-safe dish.

■The turntable cannot be turned off when defrosting.

■Once during Auto Defrost, the oven signals Turn Food Over. At the signal, turn the food over. Remove defrosted meat or shield warm areas with small pieces of foil.

■After defrosting, most meats need to stand

5 minutes to complete defrosting. Large roasts should stand for about 30 minutes.
