Auto Defrost
Use Auto Defrost for meat, poultry and fish up
to 6 pounds. Use Time Defrost for most other
frozen foods.
Auto Defrost automatically sets the
defrosting times and power levels to give
even defrosting results for meats, poultry
and fish.
Press the Auto Defrost pad.
Using the Conversion Guide at
right, enter food weight. For
example, press pads 1 and 2 for
1.2 pounds (1 pound, 3 ounces).
Press Start/Pause.
Time Defrost is explained in the Using
the timed microwave features section.
■
Remove meat from package and place
on microwave-safe dish.
■
Twice during defrost, the oven signals
TURN. At each TURN signal, turn the
food over. Remove defrosted meat or
shield warm areas with small pieces
of foil.
■
After defrosting, most meats need
to stand 5 minutes to complete
defrosting. Large roasts should
stand for about 30 minutes.
