Manual DeFrOst

If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the Defrost Chart or is above or below the limits in the AMOuNT column
on the Defrost Chart, you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously cooked, by using 30% power. Estimate defrosting time, enter it and
follow the exact procedure found on variable Power Cooking on page 18.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule of thumb is approximately four minutes per pound. For example, defrost
four minutes for one pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted at the end of the
estimated defrosting time, program the oven in one minute increments on 30% power until totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to place in a
microwave-safe dish.
. Then The display will begin counting down the defrosting
