Defrosting by Food

Defrosting by Food allows you to specify the food you are defrosting and automatically sets the defrosting times and power levels to give even defrosting results for that type of food.

1From the Home Screen, select DEFROST.

2From the Defrost Screen, select BY FOOD.

3Select the food type from the touchscreen.

4Using the Conversion Guide at right, enter the food weight using the numbers on the touchscreen. For example, press 1 and 2 for 1.2 pounds (1 pound, 3 ounces). Press ENTER when finished. Press CLEAR to erase the weight you entered or BACK to select a different food type.

5Check to make sure the food type and time are correct, and press START on the touchscreen.

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

If the oven signals “TURN FOOD OVER,” turn the food over and break apart or rearrange pieces for more even defrosting. Shield any warm areas with small pieces of foil. The oven will continue to defrost if you don’t open the door and turn the food.

After defrosting, most meats need to stand 5 minutes to complete defrosting. Large roasts should stand for about 30 minutes.
