Using the Auto Defrost button

The defrost choices are preset in the oven. The defrost cycle provides you with the best defrosting method for frozen foods, because the oven automatically sets the defrosting times according to the entered weight. For added convenience, the auto defrost function beeps to remind you to check or turn over the food during the defrost cycle.

Press the Auto Defrost button once and select the food weight. The available weight ranges from 0.1 to 6.0 lbs.

1.Press the Auto Defrost button.

2.Use the number buttons to enter the weight.

3.Press the START button.

After pressing the START button, the display counts down the defrosting time. The oven will beep twice during the defrost cycle. At this time, open the door and turn the food as needed. Remove any thawed portions, then return the frozen portions to the oven and press the START button to resume the defrost cycle.

The defrost cycle continues while the oven is beeping and only stops when the door is opened.

Defrosting tips

When using auto defrost, the entered weight is the net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight of the food minus the container).

Use the auto defrost cycle for raw food only. The auto defrost cycle gives best results when the food to be thawed is a minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a true freezer). If food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5°F or below, always program a lower food weight (for a shorter defrosting time) to prevent actually cooking the food. If the food is stored outside the freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food weight.

The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quickly than a thick block.

Separate the pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated pieces defrost more easily. Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to become warm.

You can use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield foods such as chicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails, but the foil must not touch the sides of the oven as foil causes arcing, which can damage the oven lining.
