AUTO DEFROST
Four defrost sequences are preset in the oven.
The auto 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.
For added convenience, the Auto Defrost includes
a built-in beep mechanism that reminds you to
check, turn over, separate, or rearrange the food in
order to get the best defrost results. Four different
defrosting levels are provided:
Touch:
1.
1. MEAT
2. POULTRY
3. FISH
4. BREAD
Example: To defrost 1.2 Ibs of ground beef.

NOTE: When you touch the START pad, the display
changes to a defrost time count down. The oven will
beep during the DEFROST cycle. At this time, open
the door and turn, separate, or rearrange the food.
Remove any portions that have thawed. Return
frozen portions to the oven and touch START to
resume the defrost cycle.
OPERATING TIPS
• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and
poultry from its original dosed paper or plastic
package (wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap win hold
steam and juice close to the foods, which can
cause the outer surface of the foods to cook.
• For best results, roll your ground meat into a ball
before freezing. During the DEFROST cycle, the
microwave win signal when it is time to turn the
meat over. Scrape off any excess frost from the
meat and continue defrosting.
*Place foods in a shallow container or on a
microwave roasting rack to catch drippings.
This table shows food type selections and the
weights you can set for each type. For best results,
loosen or remove covering on food.
FOOD TOUCH WEIGHTS YOU
Auto Defrost CAN SET
(tenths of a pound)
Meat 1 0.1 to 6.0 (45 g to 2.7 kg)
Poultry 2 0.1 to 6.0 (45 g to 2.7 kg)
Fish 3 0.1 to 6.0 (45 g to 2.7 kg)
Bread 4 0.1 to 1.0 (45 g to 450 g)
Weight conversion table
You are probably used to measuring food in pounds
and ounces that are fractions of a pound (for
example, 4 ounces equals 1/4 pound). However,
in order to enter food weight in Auto Defrost, you
must specify pounds and tenths of a pound.
If the weight on the food package is in fractions of
a pound, you can use the following table to convert
the weight to decimals.
Equivalent Weight
OUNCES DECIMAL WEIGHT
1.6 .10
3.2 .20
4.0 .25 One-Quarter Pound
4.8 .30
6.4 .40
8.0 .50 One-Half Pound
9.6 .60
11.2 .70
12.0 .75 Three-Quarters Pound
12.8 .80
14.4 .90
16.0 1 One Pound
NOTE: If between two decimal weights, choose the
lower weight for the best defrosting results.
