Defrosting tips
• When using CUSTOM DEFROST, the
weight to be entered is the net weight in
pounds, and tenths of pounds (the weight
of the food minus the container).
• CUSTOM DEFROST gives best results
when food to be thawed is a minimum of
0°F or colder.
• If the food is kept outside the freezer for
more than 20 minutes, and for defrosting
ready-made food, defrost by time and
power and let stand after defrosting.
• The shape of the package affects how
quickly food will defrost. Shallow packages
will defrost more quickly than a deep block.
• As food begins to defrost, separate the
pieces. Separated pieces defrost more evenly.
• Use small pieces of aluminum foil to
shield parts of food such as chicken wings,
leg tips, fish tails, or areas that start to get
warm. Make sure the foil does not touch the
sides, top, or bottom of the oven. The foil
can damage the oven lining.
• For better results, a preset standing
time is included in the defrosting time. This
may make the defrosting time seem longer
than expected. (For more information on
standing time, see “Cooking tips” in the
“Cooking Guide” section.)
Popping popcorn
POPCORN lets you pop commercially
packaged microwave popcorn by touching
just one pad. Pop only one package at a
time. If you are using a microwave popcorn
popper, follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Try several brands to decide which gives
best popping results. For best results, use
fresh bags of popcorn. Cooking performance
may vary with brand and fat content.
NOTE: If you want to add more time during
or after popping use EASY MINUTE. See
“Using EASY MINUTE” in the “Getting to
Know Your Microwave Oven” section for
more information.

2. Touch POPCORN.
The microwave oven will automatically
pop a 3.50 oz bag of popcorn when you
