Auto Defrost

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.
