AUTO DEFROSTING CHART
This chart shows which defrost course is recommended for your foods and some special directions for use with the
"Auto Defrost" feature.
AUTO DEFROSTING INSTRUCTIONS.
For best results, remove fish/seafood meat/poultry
from its original paper or plastic closed package
(wrapper).
Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam and juice close to
the foods which can cause the outer surface of the
foods to cook.
• When it is difficult to remove the wrap from the foods,
defrost the wrapped food for about a quarter of the
total defrost time, which is displayed at the beginning
of the defrost cycle. Remove the foods from oven and
remove the wrap from foods.
• Place foods in a flat glass baking dish or microwave
roasing rack to catch drippings.
• Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when
removed from the oven.
• For best results, turn foods over often as instructed
by directions of "Auto Defrosting Chart".
When the directions require "turn over once", half-
" way the total defrosting time turn foods over.
When the directions require "turn over twice", turn
foods over one-third and two-thirds of the total
defrosting time. The defrosting time shows in the
display window when START key is touched.
• The chart gives you standing times and sl;anding
techniques needed to complete the thawing process.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The defrosting powe'r 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. Use the defrost cooking level to reheat
many frozen convenience foods and also to defrost small
bread items.
