Manual Defrost

If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
COMPU DEFROST CHART or is above or below the
limits in the "Amount" column on the COMPU DEFROST
CHART, you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously
cooked, by using Power Level 3. Follow the exact 3-
step procedure found under Time Cooking on page 9.
Estimate defrosting time and press 3 for 30% when you
select the power level.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule
of thumb is approximately 5 minutes per pound. For
example, defrost 5 minutes for 1 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 1 minute increments on Power Level 3 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.

This setting is good for restoring cooled beverage to a better drinking
temperature. Stir after heating.
Use More Time Adjustment(See page 13.) for heating COLD TAP
WATER to a temperature somewhat below the boiling point to make
instant coffee or tea. Stir liquid briskly before and after heating to avoid
"eruption".

Instant Action

Instant Start

Instant Action and Instant Start allow you to cook or
reheat many of your favorite foods by touching just
one pad.
* Suppose you want to cook 3 medium baked potatoes.
BAKED
POTATO
To use any Instant Action or Instant Start pad, touch
within 1 minute after cooking, opening and closing the
door or touching the STOP/ CLEAR pad.
To increase quantity, touch chosen pad until number
in display is same as desired quantity to cook. Ex:
touch BAKED POTATO three times for three baked
potatoes.
TIPS: Foods can be covered with wax paper or
vented plastic wrap. Temperatures of foods
covered with plastic wrap tend to be slightly
higher than those covered with wax paper.
NOTE: Instant Action and Instant Start can be
programmed with More or Less Time
Adjustment. See page 13.
