TIME DEFROST allows you to defrost for a
selected length of time. See the Defrosting
Guide for suggested times. (Weight Defrost is
explained in the Auto Feature section.)
1. Press DEFROST WEIGHT/TIME twice.
2. Enter defrosting time.
3. Press START/PAUSE.
4. Turn food over when the oven signal.
5. Press START/PAUSE.
When the oven signals, turn food over and
break apart or rearrange pieces for more
even defrosting. Shield any warm areas with
small pieces of foil. The oven will continue to
the food.
Power level is automatically set at 3, but
can be changed. You can defrost small
items quickly by raising the power level after
entering the time. Power level 7 cuts the
total defrosting time in about half; power
level 10 cuts the total time to approximately
1/3. However, food will need more frequent
attention than usual.
A dull thumping noise may be heard during
defrosting. This is normal when oven is not
operating at High power.
