AUTO WEIGHT DEFROST
Three defrost sequences are preset in the oven.
The defrost feature provides you with the best
defrosting method for frozen foods. The cooking
guide will show you which defrost sequence is
recommended for the food you are defrosting.
With the Auto Weight Defrost feature, the oven
automatically sets the defrosting time and power
levels for you.
The oven automatically determines required
defrosting times for each food item according to
the weight you enter.
For added convenience, the Auto Weight Defrost
Feature contains a built-in beep mechanism that
lets you check, turn over, separate or rearrange
as recommended in the Auto Defrosting AUTO
WEIGHT DEFROST GUIDE.
Three different defrosting levels are provided.
dEF 1 : GROUND MEAT
dEF 2 : POULTRY
dEF 3 : STEAKS/CHOPS

OPER
ATING TIPS
• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and
poultry
from its original closed paper or plastic pack-
age
(wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam
and
juice close to the foods, which can cause the
outer
surface of the foods to cook.
• For best results, shape your ground meat into the
form
of a doughnut before freezing. When defrosting,
scrape
off thawed meat when the beep sounds and
continue defrosting.
• Place foods in a shallow container or on a microwave
roastin
g rack to catch drippings.
• Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when
remove
d from the oven.
