Standing time or cooking automatically after defrosting
For best results, allow the food to stand for a while after defrosting. This
helps equalize the temperature of the food to provide more even defrosting.
When COOK 1 follows QUICK DEFROST, the oven automatically provides a standing
time equal to the time touched in for QUICK DEFROST. COOK 1 will begin after the
automatic standing time.

About the “QUICK DEFROST” Cycle

Cycle into three equal parts:
- First part 80% of full Cook Power;
-Second part . 50% of full Cook Power;
-Third part 20% of full Cook Power;
This automatic step-down in Cook Power helps defrost food quickly and
completely.
