AUTO DEFROST
Three defrost sequences are preset
in the oven. The defrost feature pro-
vides you with the best defrosting
method for frozen foods. The cooking
guide will show you which defrost
sequence is recommended for the
food you are defrosting.
With the Auto Defrost feature, the
oven automatically sets the defrost-
ing time and power levels for you.
The oven automatically determines
required defrosting times for each
food item according to the weight you
enter.
For added convenience, the Auto
Defrost includes a built-in beep
mechanism that reminds you to
check, turn over, separate, or
rearrange.
Three different defrosting levels are
provided.
1 MEAT (dEF 1)
2 POULTRY (dEF 2)
3 FISH (dEF 3)
• You can select the category by
touching the key once (MEAT),
twice (POULTRY), or three times
(FISH).
• Available weight is 0.1-6.0 lbs.
(0.045-2.72 kgs).
Example: To defrost 1.2 lbs. of
ground beef
1. Touch AUTO
DEFROST.
dEF 1 appears in
the display.
2. Enter the weight
by touching [1]
and [2].
1.2 appears in the
display.
3. Touch START.
Defrosting starts.
NOTE:
When you touch the START pad, the
display changes to defrost time count
down. The oven will beep during the
DEFROST cycle. At beep, open the
door and turn, separate, or rearrange
the food.
Remove any portions that have
thawed. Return frozen portions to the
oven and touch START to resume
the defrost cycle. The oven will not
STOP during the BEEP unless the
door is opened.
• For best results, remove fish, shell-
fish, meat, and poultry from its orig-
inal closed paper or plastic pack-
age (wrapper). Otherwise, the
wrap will hold steam and juice
close to the foods, which can
cause the outer surface of the
foods to cook.
• Place foods in a shallow container
or on a microwave roasting rack to
catch drippings.
• Food should still be somewhat icy
in the center when removed from
the oven.
