Using Your Microwave Oven

Contmued

Hints for better defrosting

Your microwave oven controls four different output powers automatically during the defrost cycle. After the second segment is completed, five tones will sound but the oven will continue to defrost. At the sound of the tones, open the oven door and turn the food over, close the oven door and touch START/ENTER. The oven will auto- matically continue to count down the amount of time left on the timer.
