Microwave Power Levels
Auto Weight Defrost
Your microwave oven is equipped with ten
power levels (11 levels including 0) to give you
maximum flexibility
and control over cooking.
When your cooking program is completed,
a
beep automatically
sounds. The table below
will give you some idea of which foods are
prepared at each of the various power levels.
To help you become thoroughly
familiar with
the convenient
Auto Weight Defrost method
and its use, we have provided
step-by-step
instructions
for you. You will soon see how
microwave defrosting can transform defrosting
from a time consuming
nuisance to a simple
preparation
step. Let's begin by defrosting
1
pound 8 ounces of ground beef.

Touch
MEAT. The
"DEF"
and
"DEF 1" will shown, and the "Ibs" will flash.
Enter the weight of your food in decimal
increments
from 0.1 pound to 5.9 pounds.
Remember to convert ounces to tenths of a
pound.
To defrost
1 pound 8 ounces
of
ground beef, touch number pads "1" and
"5" for 1.5 pounds. The display window will
show "1.5".
Touch START. The oven will begin
the
defrosting
sequence,
and the display win-
dow will show the total time as it "counts
down". The oven will sound the beep at the
end of 70% power.
6. At the beep, follow the guide instructions:
Remove thawed portions with fork, turning
beef over and also removing thawed portion
from bottom. Return remainder to oven.
NOTE: If the oven door is not opened during
the beep, the oven will continue defrosting.
Because turning,
rotating, and separating
are usually necessary for proper defrosting,
follow steps 1 through 7 for best results.
7. After performing
guide instructions,
touch
START. The oven resumes defrosting
and
the display window shows the time remain-
ing. At the end of the required time, a beep
will sound and "End"
will appear in the dis-
play and remain until the door is opened or
CLEAR is pressed. The oven shuts off auto-
matically.
