AUTO DEFROST TIPS
s The benefit of the Auto Defrost feature is the auto-
matic setting and control of defrosting, but just like
conventional defrosting, you must check the food
during the defrosting time.
. To check the food “Pause” is preset in this Auto
Defrost cycle.
Turn over, separate or rearrange food items per in-
structions in the Auto Defrost Chart when the word
“PAUS” appears in the display window.
● For best results, remove fish/seafood/meat/poultry
from its original paper or plastic packaging (wrapper).
Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam and juices close
to the foods.
● Place foods in a shallow microproof baking dish or on
a microwave roasting rack to prevent steam and juices
cooking outside areas of the food.
● Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when
removed from the oven.
. Standing time is included in the Auto Defrost courses.
IMPORTANT N~E: The defrosting power setting
(power level 30 DEFROST) should not be confused with
this “Auto Defrost” feature. The defrost cooking level is
a low-energy setting used to cook foods that need slow,
gentle cooking. Also, use the defrost cooking level to
defrost small ground beef patties, bacon and bread
items.
● When it is difficult to remove the wrap from the foods,
defrost the wrapped food for about a quarter of the to-
tal defrost time, which is displayed at the beginning of
the defrost cycle. Remove the food from the oven and
then remove the wrap from the food. Return the food
to the oven and touch START.
