• If you do not enter a weight within 2 seconds,
AUTO DEFROST will prompt you to enter a weight.
You then have 1 minute to enter a weight and to
touch START/ENTER. If you do not do so, AUTO
DEFROST will be canceled.
• If you enter a weight higher than the highest weight
allowed for your food setting, 3 tones will sound
and "RETRY" will appear on the display when you
touch START/ENTER.
• If you touch AUTO DEFROST 4 times, the display
returns to the Meats setting.
• If you need more or less defrosting time, do not
touch AUTO DEFROST again. Touch POWER
before you touch START/ENTER. (See "Changing
preset cooking times" in the "Getting to Know Your
Microwave Oven" section.)
• See the "Auto defrost chart" later in this section
for defrosting directions for each food.
• To defrost items not listed in the "Auto defrost
chart," use 30% cook power. Refer to a reliable
cookbook for defrosting information.

• The shape of the package affects how quickly food
will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more
quickly than a deep block.
• As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces.
Separated pieces defrost more evenly.
• Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts
of food such as chicken wings, leg tips, fish tails,
or areas that start to get warm. Make sure the foil
does not touch the sides, top, or bottom of
the oven.
This chart shows you how to choose a type of food and the weights you can set for each type.
