Time Defrost
Allows you to defrost for a selected length of time. See the Defrosting
Guide for suggested times. (Weight Defrost explained in the About
the Auto Feature section.)
1
Press DEFROST TIME/WEIGHT twice.
2
Enter defrosting time.
3
Press START/PAUSE.

Turn food over when the oven signals.
5
Press START/PAUSE.
Power level is automatically set at 3, and you may not change it.
At one half of selected defrosting time, the oven signals TURN. At this
time, turn food over and break apart or rearrange pieces for more
even defrosting. Shield any warm areas with small pieces of foil.
A dull thumping noise may be heard during defrosting. This is normal
when oven is not operating at High power.
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 Weight 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.
