DEFROST
Defrost automatically defrosts the foods shown in the
DEFROST CHART below.
Round the weight to the nearest half pound. (Ex: if the
steak’s actual weight is 2.2 lb round to 2.0 lb If the
steak’s weight is 2.4 lb round to 2.5 lb.)
To enter weight, touch the desired DEFROST pad for
a 0.5 lb increase per touch. (Ex: touch four times for
2.0 lb.)
• Suppose you want to defrost a 2.0 pound steak .

2. To defrost other foods or foods above or below the
weights allowed on DEFROST CHART. Use time and
30% power. See MANUAL DEFROST below.
3. You may choose to enter the weight in tenths of
pounds. This procedure may be easier with larger
weights such as 3 pounds because it requires
fewer touches. To program, touch desired DE-
FROST pad and enter weight by touching the num-
ber pads. Ex: touch STEAKS/CHOPS pad then
3 and 0 for a weight of 3.0 lb or touch STEAKS/
CHOPS pad then 2 and 2 for a weight of 2.2 lb.
If you attempt to enter more or less than the allowed
amount as indicated in chart below, an error mes-
sage will appear in the display.
4. To use any Defrost pad, touch within 3 minutes after
cooking, opening and closing the door or touching
the STOP/CLEAR pad.
5. Touch CUSTOM HELP pad when the HELP indica-
tor is lighted in the display for a helpful hint.
MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
DEFROST CHART or is above or below the limits in
the “Amount” column on the DEFROST CHART, you
need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previ-
ously cooked, by using 30% Power Level. See page 9.
Estimate defrosting time and touch POWER LEVEL pad
8 times for 30% when you select the power level.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the
rule of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound.
For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen
spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or sepa-
rate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not
defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting
time, program the oven in 1 minute increments at 30%
until totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost
only long enough to remove from the plastic in order
to place in a microwave-safe dish.

Pull apart and remove any thawed pieces after each stage.
Let stand, covered, for 5 to 10 minutes. Ground Meat .5 - 2.0 lb
After each stage, rearrange and if there are warm or thawed portions,
shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil. Remove any meat that is
nearly defrosted. Let stand, covered, for 10 to 20 minutes. Steaks/Chops
Use boneless breast of chicken or turkey. After each stage, if there are
warm or thawed portions, rearrange or remove. Let stand, covered, for
10 to 20 minutes. Boneless Poultry .5 - 1.5 lb
.5 - 3.0 lb
Arrange pieces with meatiest portions toward outside of glass dish or
microwave safe rack. After each stage, if there are warm or thawed por-
tions, rearrange or remove. Let stand, covered, for 10 to 20 minutes. Bone-in Poultry .5 - 3.0 lb
NOTE: Check foods when oven signals. After final stage, small sections may still be icy. Let stand to continue
thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals are thawed.
Shielding prevents cooking from occurring before the center of the food is defrosted. Use small smooth
strips of aluminum foil to cover edges and thinner sections of the food.
