Time Defrost
(Do not use the shelves
when microwave cooking.)
Use Time Defrost to defrost for a selected
length of time.
1 Press the Defrost button three times.
2 Turn the dial to select the time you want.
Press the dial to enter.
3 Press the Start/Pause button to start
defrosting.
4 Turn the food over if the oven signals
TURN FOOD OVER.
You may change the defrost time at any time
during defrosting by turning the dial.
Power level is automatically set at 3, but can
be changed. You can defrost small items
quickly by raising the power level after
entering the time. Power level 7 cuts the total
defrosting time in about half; power level 10
cuts the total time to approximately 1/3.
However, food will need more frequent
attention than usual.
A dull thumping noise may be heard during
defrosting. This is normal when oven is not
operating at High power.
Beverage
(Do not use the shelves when
microwave cooking.)
The Beverage feature heats beverages from
6 to 12 ounces.
Potato
(Do not use the shelves when
microwave cooking.)
The Potato feature allows you to cook
1 to 3 potatoes at a time at 8–10 oz. each.
Defrosting Tips
Foods frozen in paper or plastic can be
defrosted in the package. Closed packages
should be slit, pierced or vented AFTER food
has partially defrosted. Plastic storage
containers should be partially uncovered.
Family-size, prepackaged frozen
dinners can be defrosted and microwaved.
If the food is in a foil container, transfer
it to a microwave-safe dish.
Foods that spoil easily should not be
allowed to sit out for more than one hour
after defrosting. Room temperature
promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.
For more even defrosting of larger foods,
such as roasts, use Auto Defrost. Be sure
large meats are completely defrosted
before cooking.
When defrosted, food should be cool
but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy,
return to the microwave very briefly, or let
it stand a few minutes.
Some models include a defrost rack. If you
have a defrost rack, place it on top of the
turntable and the food item on the rack for
best results.
Drinks heated with the Beverage feature may
be very hot. Remove the container with care.
