Operating Instructions

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 lbs.
The available weight range for Bread
is 0.1 to 1.0 lb.
Example : To defrost 1.2 lbs of
meat.
1. Touch AUTO
DEFROST pad.
2. Choose food
category.
3. Enter the
weight.
4. Touch ENTER/
START pad.
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/START
to 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 a on a microwave
roasting rack to catch drippings.
Foods should still be somewhat icy
in the center when removed from
the oven.

DEFROST 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 DEFROST only for raw
food. AUTO DEFROST gives 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 alu-
minum 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.
A DEFROST PLATE is provided for
complete defrosting of larger food
items. Place the defrost plate on the
glass tray plastic side down. Place
the item to be defrosted directly on
the defrost plate.
