6.Setting "defrost by weight"
Set DEFROST BY WEIGHT for any weight
up to 6 pounds. Because it is a more gentle
defrost setting than "Speed Defrost", it is
especially good for meats which are dense
in the center but vulnerable to overcooking
on the edges. For meats as small as a
pound of hamburger or delicate shrimp,
choosing DEFROST BY WEIGHT will give
more even thawed results than SPEED
DEFROST setting. Choose DEFROST BY
WEIGHT for large meat roasts.
• Check weight of meat. It must be in pounds
and ounces. If label gives weight in pounds
only, you can change the fraction of a pound
to ounces using chart on page 11. Unwrap
meat before defrosting .
Touch DEFROST BY WEIGHT pad. Word
prompt ENTER shows in display and 0's
show where LB and OZ should be entered.
LB flashes until you enter pound(s) by
touching correct number pad. When
pound(s) has been entered, LB will stop
flashing and OZ will flash. As soon as all
these digits have been set, display will
immediately show cook time. Ounce weights
less than 10 must be preceded by a 0. As
soon as three digits are set, display
immediately shows cook time.
•Touch START/STOP pad to start oven.
CODE flashes in display as time counts
down. Interior light goes on, turntable rotates
and fan sound is heard.
• After partial defrosting, oven beeps twice
and stops. Interior light goes off but time
remains on the display. This pause in
operation is to allow turning over, rearrang-
ing or shield. After attending to meat appro-
priately, touch START to resume the time on
display and finish cooking.
After total cooking time, 4 long beeps sound
and END appears in display. Touch RESET
or open oven door to clear END before
starting another cooking function.
Notes:
• Allow enough time for defrosting because it
is more slow and gradual than SPEED
DEFROST. With DEFROST BY WEIGHT,
low power microwaving is interspersed
within "resting" and "standing" periods
where no microwaves at all enter the oven.
These no-microwave periods allow meat to
equalize in temperature before next period
of microwaving automatically comes on.
• "DEFROST BY WEIGHT" automatically sets
the correct thawing time, but you must enter
the food weight accurately. Weight must be
in pounds and ounces.
Place meat on microwave-safe rack in
microwave roasting dish. Place meats fat-
side down and poultry breast-side down.
