FASTER OR SLOWER DEFROSTING
When you touch DEFROST, the microwave oven automatically uses 30% of full Cook
Power. For slower or faster defrosting, see lower Cook Powers on page 8.
l
Use 20% of full power for slower defrosting.
l
Use 40% of full power for faster defrosting. Defrosting at Cook Powers higher than
30% can cause some cooking on the outside of the food.
HOLDING OR STANDING TIME:
For best results allow the food to stand for awhile after defrosting. This will equalize
the temperature of the food and provide more even defrosting.
