• After pressing START key, the display will count down remaining defrost time. The oven will beep during the defrost cycle. At this time open the door and turn the food if needed and remove any portions that have already thawed. Press the START key to resume the defrost cycle.
• When heating has finished you will hear beeps.

DEFROSTING TIPS

• When using the defrost weight feature, the weight entered should always be pounds (valid entries are from 0.1 to 6.0 pounds).
• Use both defrost weight and defrost time features for raw food items only. Defrosting gives best results when food to be thawed is a minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a true freezer). If the food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5°F or below, always program a lower food weight or lower cook time to prevent cooking the food.
• If the frozen food is stored outside the freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a reduced cook time or weight.
• The shape of the package will alter the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular food packets defrost more quickly than a deep frozen block of food.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated frozen pieces of food defrost better.
• Shield warm areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to become warm.
• You may use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield food items like chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails, but do not allow the foil to touch the oven cavity walls when defrosting.

DEFROSTING SUGGESTIONS FOR MEATS

For best results, please read these suggestions when defrosting meats.

3. Press START pad.
   

MELT / SOFTEN CATEGORY

SUGGESTED POWER LEVELS FOR COOKING

The 10 power levels available with this microwave will help you to adjust to the power output best suited for the food type you are preparing. As with any food preparation in the microwave, it is best to follow the microwave instructions that are printed on food packaging.
The table below provides suggested power levels for various types of food that you can be prepare in the microwave.

SUGGESTIONS FOR GETTING THE BEST RESULTS

To help you achieve the best possible results from your microwave oven, read the following suggestions below;

• Storage temperature
  Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take longer to cook than the same foods would at room temperature.
• Size
  Small pieces of food cook faster than large ones. Pieces similar in size and shape will cook more evenly when cooked together. For more even results, reduce the power levels when cooking large pieces of food.
• Natural moisture
  Very moist foods cook more evenly because microwave energy heats water molecules very efficiently.
• Stirring
  Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetable from the outside to the center to distribute the heat more evenly. This will allow the food to cook faster. Constant stirring is not necessary.
• Turn over items
  Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts or whole cauliflower halfway through the cook time. This will help to expose all sides equally to microwave energy.
• Food placement
  Place delicate areas of food items, such as asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable tray.
• Food arrangement
  Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or salmon, with the thicker or meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable tray.
• Let the food stand
  After removing the food from the microwave, cover the food with foil or a casserole lid and let it stand to finish cooking. This will help the food finish in the center and avoids overcooking the out edges, The length of stand time depends on the density and surface area of the food items.
• Wrapping in paper towels or waxed paper
  Sandwiches and many other food types containing pre-baked bread should be wrapped prior to placing in the microwave to help prevent the food items from drying out while heating.

POPCORN

DO NOT leave microwave oven unattended while popping corn.
The popcorn feature lets you pop 3 different commercially packaged microwave popcorn sized bags. Use the table below to determine the setting to use.
