Defrosting Techniques:
• Remove food from wrapper to prevent holding steam and juice and place in a
microwave-safe baking dish or a roasting rack to catch drippings.
• Cover thin parts with aluminum foil to prevent overdefrosting.
• Because some food should be still icy in center, it is necessary to have standing
time after defrosting food in the oven to complete defrosting. Leave your food for a
wtji!e-out of oven. The denser the food such as roasts, the longer standing time is
required.
Note:
• Weight can be entered up to 5.9 lbs.
• The oven selects 11b if a weight is not entered.
• Beep tone sounds 5 seconds during the defrosting cycle to signal that food
should be rearranged to improve defrosting performance. Open the door and
rearrange the food. The oven continues the defrosting cycle to the end if you do not
open the door.
• Food can be defrosted in a styrofoam package.
• Using the Auto Defrost by Weight feature for the first stage of Time Cooking, you
can defrost first and can program up to 3 stages of cooking.
