Sensor Reheat; Defrosting Automatically - Amana AMC5143BCS Owner's Manual

Operation
Sensor Reheat
Heating leftovers and precooked foods is easy with your new micro-
wave. By actually sensing the steam that escapes as food heats, this
feature automatically adjusts the oven's heating time for various types
and amounts of precooked food. All food should be precooked and at
refrigerator temperature. To use sensor reheating:
1
Press Sensor Reheat. The display will show "REHEAT" and the
oven will start automatically.
Defrosting Automatically
To thaw frozen food, set the weight of the food and the microwave auto-
matically sets the defrosting time, power level and standing time.
1 Press the Auto Defrost button. The display shows "0.5 LB"(0.2Kg
if you have set your oven for metric measure).
If you want to adjust the heating time, use the More/Less buttons.
See page 15 for the More/Less buttons. If you want to check the
current time while reheating, press the Clock button.
2
To set the weight of your food, press the Auto Defrost button
repeatedly. This increases the weight by 0.5 Ib increments, up to
6.0 Ibs. You can also use the number buttons to enter the weight of
the food directly. The oven calculates the defrosting time and starts
automatically. Twice during defrosting, the oven will beep and the
display will read "TURN THE FOOD OVER".
