USE
AUTO DEFROST
Three defrost sequences are preset in the oven.
The auto defrost feature provides you with the best
defrosting method for frozen foods. The Auto Defrost Table
will show you which defrost sequence is recommended for
the food you are defrosting.
For added convenience, the Auto Defrost includes a built-in
beep mechanism that reminds you to check, turn over,
separate, or rearrange to get best defrost results. Three
different defrost settings are provided.
1 MEAT
2 POULTRY
3 FISH
4 BREAD
5 RAPID - only 1 lb.
*You can set Auto Defrost from 0.1 to 6.0 pounds in each
setting.
Example: To defrost 1.2 lbs of ground beef.

NOTE:
When you touch the START/ENTER pad, the display
changes to defrost time count down. The oven will beep
during the DEFROST cycle. At this time, open the door and
turn, separate, or rearrange the food.
Remove any portions that have thawed.
Return frozen portions to the oven and touch
START/ENTER to resume the defrost cycle.
OPERATING TIPS
• 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.
• For best results, shape your ground meat into the form of
a doughnut before freezing. When defrosting, scrape off
thawed meat when the beep sounds and continue
defrosting.
• Place foods in a shallow container or on a microwave
roasting rack to catch drippings.
• For more defrost help, please read “Defrosting Tips”
following the Auto Defrost Table.
This table shows you food type selections and the weights
you can set for each type. For best results, loosen or
remove covering on food.

WEIGHT CONVERSION TABLE
You are probably used to food weights as being in pounds
and ounces that are fractions of a pound (for example, 4
ounces equals 1/4 pound). However, in order to enter food
weight in Auto Defrost, you must specify pounds and tenths
of a pound.
If the weight on the food package is in fractions of a pound,
you can use the following table to convert the weight to
decimals.

4.8 .30
