NOTE: Check foods when oven signals. After final stage, small sections may still be icy. Let stand to continue
thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals are thawed.
Shielding prevents cooking from occurring before the center of the food is defrosted. Use small smooth
strips of aluminum foil to cover edges and thinner sections of the food.

1. If you attempt to enter more or less than the allowed
amount as indicated in chart below, an error mes-
sage will appear in the display.
2. CompuDefrost can be programmed with More or
Less Time Adjustment. Touch the POWER LEVEL
pad once or twice after selecting the amount. See
page 16.
3. To defrost other foods or foods above or below the
weights allowed on COMPU DEFROST CHART. Use
time and 30% power. See MANUAL DEFROST on
page 16.
4. You may choose to enter the weight in tenths of
pounds. This procedure may be easier with larger
weights such as 4 pounds because it requires
fewer touches. To program, touch desired COMPU
DEFROST pad and enter weight by touching the
number pads. Ex: touch STEAKS/CHOPS then 4
and 0 for a weight of four pounds or touch STEAKS/
CHOPS then 2 and 2 for a weight of 2.2 lb.

after cooking, opening and closing the door or
touching the STOP/CLEAR pad.

tor is lighted in the display for a helpful hint.
