MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the DEFROST TABLE
or is above or below the limits in the Amount column on the DEFROST
TABLE, you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously cooked, by
using Power Level for 30%. Follow the exact 3-step procedure found
under TO SET POWER LEVEL. Estimate defrosting time and press
Power Level pad eight times for 30%.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule of thumb is
approximately 4 minutes per pound. For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1
pound of frozen spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the microwave oven periodically to remove or separate
the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted at the end of the
estimated defrosting time, program the microwave oven in 1 minute
increments on Power Level 30% until totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only long enough
to remove food from the plastic in order to place in a microwave-safe dish.
Microwave Operating Instructions
Special Features
SENSOR COOKING
The Sensor is a semi-conductor device that detects the
vapor (moisture and humidity) emitted from the food as it
heats, and then adjusts the cooking times and power level
for various foods and quantities.
Using Sensor Settings:
1. After microwave oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes
before using SENSOR COOKING.
2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the
interior of the microwave oven are dry. Wipe off any
moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.
3. The microwave oven works with foods at normal
storage temperature. For example, popcorn would be
at room temperature, frozen dinner would be at freezer
temperature.
4. Any SENSOR COOKING selection can be programmed
with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 15.
5. More or less food than the quantity listed in the
Sensor Cooking Table should be cooked following the
guidelines in any microwave cookbook.
6. During the first part of SENSOR COOKING, food
selection name will appear on the display. Do not
open the microwave oven door or touch Stop/Clear
during this part of the cooking cycle. The measurement
of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error
message will appear. To continue cooking, touch the
Stop/Clear pad and cook manually.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food,
remainder of cooking time will appear. Door may be opened
when remaining cooking time appears on the display. At
this time, you may stir or season food, as desired.
7. If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when
popping popcorn, the microwave oven will turn off, and
the correct time of day will be displayed. If the sensor
does not detect vapor properly when cooking other
foods, ERROR will be displayed, and the microwave
oven will turn off.
8. Check food for temperature after cooking. If additional
time is needed, continue to cook manually.
9. Each food selection pad has a cooking hint. Touch
Help pad when the HELP indicator is lighted in the
display.
IMPORTANT OPERATION NOTE: You must touch a
Sensor Cooking pad within 3 minutes of opening and
closing the oven door at the beginning of a new cooking
cycle. If you do not, the pad will not work until you touch
Stop/Clear.
Covering Foods:
Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover
recommended in the SENSOR COOKING TABLE for these
foods.
1.Casserole lid.
2. Plastic wrap: Use plastic wrap recommended
for microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow
approximately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow
steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch food.
3.Wax paper: Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap
under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper, overlap
two pieces at least one inch to cover.
Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to
escape away from you.
EXAMPLE:
You can cook many foods by touching just one pad. You
don't need to calculate cooking time or power level.
Suppose you want to reheat chili.
Touch Reheat pad.
When sensor detects the vapor emitted from the food,
remainder of reheating time will appear.
