For best results, allow the food to stand for a while after defrosting. This helps equalize the temperature of the food to provide more even defrosting.

When the COOK Cycle follows QUICK DEFROST,the oven automatically provides a standing time equal to the time touched in for QUICK DEFROST.The COOK Cycle will begin after the automatic standing time.

About the “QUICK DEFROST” Cycle

The microwave oven automatically divides the time set for the QUICK DEFROST Cycle into three equal parts:

-First	part		80%	of full Cook	Power;
-Second		part	50%	of full Cook	Power;
-Third	part.		20%	of full Cook	Power.
This automatic			step-down in Cook Power helps defrost food quickly and	completely	with
less cooking.
