For best results, some recipes call for differ-
ent cook powers during different stages of a
cook cycle. You can program your oven to
switch from one power level to another for
up to 2 stages.
NOTE: If you are using the AUTO
DEFROST feature as one of the cooking
stages, it must be programmed as the first
stage.

AUTO DEFROST thaws frozen food with-
out entering a cook time or cook power.
Three defrost categories are preset in your
oven: Ground Meat, Poultry, and
Steaks/Chops. See the Auto Defrost Chart
on the next page.
NOTES:
• For added convenience, AUTO
DEFROST has a built-in reminder tone to
tell you when to check, turn over, sepa-
rate, or rearrange food. The oven will
sound a tone during the defrost cycle. At
the tone, open the door and turn, separate,
or rearrange food. Remove any portions
that have thawed. Return frozen portion to
the oven and touch START to resume the
defrost cycle.
• You can defrost foods that weigh 0.1 to
6.0 lbs.
For best results:
• Remove fish, shellfish, meat, and poultry
from its original closed paper or plastic
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.
• Shape ground meat into the form of a
doughnut before freezing. When defrost-
ing, remove thawed meat when the
reminder tone sounds and continue
defrosting.
• Place foods in a shallow container or on a
microwave roasting rack to catch drip-
pings.
• Food should still be somewhat icy in the
center when removed from the oven.
Example: To defrost 1.2 lbs. of ground
beef.
