QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q. What wlll happen If I accidentally reverse my defrost, hold and cook Instructions?
A. The oven will automatically rearrange your program. Defrosting will always come first, then hold, and then the cooking function.
Q, Can t defrost and hold only?
A. Yes. All you need to do Is program In Time Defrost and the amount of time, then program Hold and the amount of time, Be sure to put the thawed dish in the refrigerator promptly.
Q_ I programmed my oven for a specific defrosting time
but it defrosted longer than necessary. What happened?
A. When Instructions conflict, the oven carries out the last instruction. You may have set oven to Defrost for
4 minutes, hold for 2 minutes, and then defrost for 6 minutes° The oven would defrost for 6 minutes and
hold for 2 minutes.
Never let food such as dairy pro. ducts, fish, meat, poultry, etc., sit for more than I hour before cooking starts, when you set your
oven for a delay start. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.
