Defrosting - Whirlpool RMC275PD Use And Care Manual

Defrosting

Your microwave oven uses a preset defrost time and
power according to the food code and the food
quantity that you choose.
Standing time is required for proper defrosting. This
may make defrosting times seem longer than in other
microwave ovens.
