D ef['ost[ng
tips
• When using AUTO DEFROST, you need to enter
the net weight (the weight of the food minus
the container).
Enter the weight to the nearest
1/10 Ib (45 g).
• Only use AUTO DEFROST for raw food.
AUTO DEFROST gives best results when the
food to be thawed is completely frozen. If the
food is partially defrosted, always set a lower
food weight (for a shorter defrosting time) to
prevent cooking the food.
• For better results, a preset standing time is
included in the defrosting time. This may make the
defrosting time seem longer than expected. (For
more information on standing time, see the
"Microwave
cooking tips" in the "Cooking Guide"
section.)
