Whirlpool GMC305PD Microwave Oven User Manual


 
Defrosting
Your microwave oven uses a preset defrost time and
power according to the food code and the food
quantity that you choose.
Standing time is required for proper defrosting. This
may make defrosting times seem longer than in other
microwave ovens.

NOTE: Bagel quantity settings 1 or 2 may appear to
have longer defrost times than necessary. However,
longer times use less cook power.
