Questions and Answers
Q. When I press START, I hear a
dull,
thumping
noise. What is it?
A. This
sound is normal. It is letting you know the oven
is using a power level lower than
10
(High).
Q. Can I open the door during defrosting to check on
the progress of my food?
A. Yes.
You may open the door
at
any time during
microwaving. To resume defrosting, close the door and
press START. The oven begins operating if time is left
on timer. If not, reset timer.
Q. Should all foods be completely thawed before
cooking?
A.
Some foods should not be completely thawed before
cooking. For example, fish cooks so quickly it is better
to begin cooking while it is still slightly frozen.
Q. Can I defrost small items in a hurry?
A. Yes,
but they will need more frequent attention than
usual. Raise the power level after entering the time by
touching the desired power level pad. Power
level
7 cuts
the
total
defrosting time in about 1/2; Power level 10
cuts the total defrosting time to approximately l/3.
During either, rotate or stir food frequently.
Q.
Why don’t the defrosting times in the Defrosting
Guide seem right for my food?
A. These
times are averages. Defrosting time can vary
according to the temperature in your freezer. Set your
oven for the time indicated in the Defrosting Guide. If
your food is still not completely thawed at the end of that
time, reset your oven and adjust the time accordingly.
