AUTO DEFROST
Four defrost choices are preset in the
oven. The defrost feature provides
you with the best defrosting method
for frozen foods, because the oven
automatically sets the defrosting
times for each food item according
to the weight you enter. For added
convenience, the AUTO DEFROST
includes a built-in tone mechanism
that reminds you to check, turn
over, separate, or rearrange the food
during the defrost cycle. Four different
defrosting options are provided.
1. MEAT
2. POULTRY
3. FISH
4. BREAD
After touching AUTO DEFROST once,
select the food category. Available
weight ranges for Meat, Poultry and
Fish are 0.1 to 6.0 Ibs. The available
weight range for Bread is 0.1 to 1.0 lb.
Example : To defrost 1.2 Ibs of meat.

NOTE: After you touch ENTER/
START, the display counts down the
defrost time. The oven will beep once
during the Defrost cycle. At this time,
open the door and turn, separate, or
rearrange the food as needed. Remove
any portions that have thawed then
return frozen portions to the oven and
touch ENTER/STARTto resume the
defrost cycle. The oven will not stop
during the BEEP unless the door is
opened.
For best results:
• Remove fish, shellfish, meat, and
poultry from its original closed
paper or plastic package (wrapper).
Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam
and juice close to the foods, which
can cause the outer surface of the
foods to cook.
• Form the meat into the shape of a
doughnut before freezing. When
defrosting, scrape off thawed meat
when the beep sounds and continue
defrosting.
• Place foods in a shallow glass baking
dish or on a microwave roasting rack
to catch drippings.
• Foods should still be somewhat icy
in the center when removed from the
oven.

TIPS
When using AUTO DEFROST,the
weight to be entered is the net weight
in pounds and tenths of pounds
(the weight of the food minus the
container).
• Use AUTO DEFROSTonly for raw
food. AUTO DEFROSTgives best
results when food to be thawed is a
minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a
true freezer). If 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 (for a shorter defrosting time)
to prevent cooking the food.
• If the food is stored outside the
freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a
lower food weight.
• The shape of the package alters the
defrosting time. Shallow rectangular
packets defrost more quickly than a
deep block.
• Separate pieces as they begin to
defrost. Separated pieces defrost
more easily.
• You can use small pieces of
aluminum foil to shield foods like
chicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails,
but the foil must not touch the side
of the oven. Foil causes arcing, which
can damage the oven lining.
• Shield areas of food with small pieces
of foil if they start to become warm.
• For better results, a preset standing
time is included in the defrosting
time.
For best results, elevate food to
be defrosted on a microwave safe
roasting rack. This prevents the
possibility of warm meat juices
cooking food during defrost.
