USING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
AUTO DEFROST
Three defrost sequences are preset in the oven.
The defrost feature provides you with the best
defrosting method for frozen foods. The auto
defrost guide 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 the best defrost results. Three different
defrosting levels are provided.
Example: To defrost 1.2 lbs  . of ground beef.

NOTE:
When you touch the START pad, the display

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 to
resume the defrost cycle. The oven will not stop
during the BEEP unless the door is opened.
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.
• Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when
removed from the oven.
QUICK DEFROST
