USING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

AUTO DEFROST

Three defrost sequences are preset in the oven. The auto defrost feature provides you with the best defrosting method for frozen foods. The Cooking Guide on the front of the oven cavity will show you which defrost sequence is recommended for the food you are defrosting.

For added convenience, the Auto Defrost includes a built-in beep mechanism that reminds you to check, turn over, separate, or rearrange the food to get best defrost results. Three different defrosting options are provided.

Example: To defrost 1.2 lbs of ground beef.

NOTE:

When you touch the START pad, the display changes to defrost time count down. The oven will beep during the DEFROST cycle. At this time, open the door and turn, separate, or rearrange the food. Remove any portions that have thawed. Return frozen portions to the oven and touch START to resume the defrost cycle.

OPERATING TIPS

• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and

poultry from its original closed paper or plastic

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.

• For best results, shape your ground meat into the

form of a doughnut before freezing. When defrosting,

scrape off thawed meat when the beep sounds and

continue defrosting.

• Place foods in a shallow container or on a microwave

roasting rack to catch drippings.

• Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when

removed from the oven.
