AUTO DEFROST
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 according
to the weight you enter. For added
convenience, the AUTO DEFROST
beeps to remind you to check or turn
over the food during the defrost cycle.
After touching the AUTO DEFROST
pad once, select the food weight.
Available weight ranges are 0.1 to 6.0
Ibs.
Example: To defrost
1.2 Ibs of

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 O°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.
,, Shield areas of food with small pieces
of foil if they start to become warm.
,,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.

WIRE RACK
The wire rack gives you extra space
when cooking in more than one
container at the same time.
To use rack:
1. Place rack securely in the four
plastic supports.
• Rack MUST NOT touch metal
walls or back of microwave oven.
2. Place equal amounts of food both
ABOVE AND BELOW rack.
,_Amount of food must be
approximately the same to
balance out cooking energy.
IMPORTANT:
• DO NOT store or use the wire rack
in this oven unless more than one
item is being cooked or a recipe
calls for it.
• Damage to the oven could occur.
