This is a quick way to set cooking time
for 30 seconds. It will add 30 seconds to
the time each time the pad is pressed.

About the auto features.
Auto Defrost
Use Auto Defrost for meat, poultry, and fish.
Use Time Defrost for most other frozen foods.
Auto Defrost automatically sets the defrosting
times and power levels to give even
defrosting results for meats, poultry, and fish.
Press AUTO DEFROST.
Select food type 1–4 (see the Auto
Defrost Guide below).
Using the Conversion Guide below, enter
food weight. For example, press pads
1 and 2 for 1.2 pounds (1 pound,
3 ounces).
Press START.
(Time Defrost is explained in the About the
time features section.)
There is a handy guide located on the inside
front of the oven.
■ Remove meat from package and place
on microwave-safe dish.
■ When the oven signals, turn the food
over. Remove defrosted meat or shield
warm areas with small pieces of foil.
■ After defrosting, most meats need to
stand 5 minutes to complete defrosting.
Large roasts should stand for about
30 minutes.
