TIME DEFROST

This feature allows you to choose the time you want to
defrost.
Example: To defrost for 2 minutes.
When the defrost time is over, four beeps will sound and
COOK END will display.

DEFROST TIPS

• When using
entered is the net weight in pounds and tenths of
pounds (the weight of the food minus the container).
• Before starting, make sure you have removed any
of the metal twist-ties which often come with frozen
food bags, and replace them with strings or elastic
bands.
• Open containers such as cartons before they are
placed in the oven.
• Always slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging.
• If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place food
in a suitable container.
• Slit the skins, if any, of frozen food such as
sausage.
• Bend plastic pouches of food to ensure even
defrosting.
• Always underestimate defrosting time. If defrosted
food is still icy in the center, return it to the microwave
oven for more defrosting.
• The length of defrosting time varies according to
how solidly the food is frozen.
• The shape of the package affects how quickly food
will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more
quickly than a deep block.
• As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces.
Separated pieces defrost more easily.
• Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts
of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails, or
areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil does
not touch the sides, top, or bottom of the oven. The
foil can damage the oven lining.
• For better results, let food stand after defrosting.
(For more information on standing time, see the
"Microwave Cooking Tips" section.)
1. Touch DEFROST 3 times.
2. Enter the defrosting time you
want.
3. Touch START/ENTER.
(Defrost starts)
• Turn food over during defrosting or standing time.
Break apart and remove food as rquired.

METAL RACK

To avoid risk of property damage:
Do not use rack to pop popcorn.
Rack must be on the four plastic supports
when used.
Use the rack only when cooking food on rack
position.
Do not cook with rack on floor of the oven.
The metal rack gives you extra space when cooking in
more than one container at the same time.
To use rack:
1. Place rack securely in the four plastic supports.
• Rack MUST NOT touch metal walls or back of
microwave oven.
2. Place equal amounts of food both ABOVE AND
BELOW rack.
• Amount of food must be approximately the same to
balance out cooking energy.

SLIDE-OUT HOOD

•
Do not place any objects on the slide-out hood as
they could fall and be damaged.
• Do not pull on slide-out hood or damage may occur.
• Do not spill food or liquid on slide-out hood. Spillage
of liquid or food may result in electric shock or
oven malfunction.
Make sure the slide-out hood has been moved back
•
to rear before your microwave oven or range
cooking start.
•
Strictly install the microwave oven according to
Installation Manual. Install at least 12 inches
(30.5cm) above a cooktop.
•
Don't leave the cooktop without cookware when
cooking,The high temperature of the flame may
cause the slide hood melted.
•
Close slide hood after finish cooking on cooktop.
SLIDE-OUT VENT HOOD
• Press the slide-out vent hood (marked with "PUSH") to
extend it forward. To close it, push the vent hood back
