DEFROSTTIPS
• When using AUTO DEFROST,the
weight to be entered is the net weight in
pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight
of the food minus the container).
• Use AUTO DEFROST only for raw
food. AUTO DEFROST gives best
results when food to be thawed is a
minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a
true freezer). If food has been stored
in a refrigerator-freezer that does not
maintain a temperature of 5°F or below,
always program a lower food weight (for
a shorter defrosting time) to prevent
cooking the food.
• If the food is stored outside the freezer
for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food
weight.
• The shape of the package alters the
defrosting time. Shallow rectangular
packets defrost more quickly than a
deep block.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.
Separated pieces defrost more easily.
• Shield areas of food with small pieces of
foil if they start to become warm.
• You can use small pieces of aluminum
foil to shield foods like chicken wings, leg
tips, and fish tails, but the foil must not
touch the side of the oven. Foil causes
arcing, which can damage the oven
lining.

the food as needed. Remove any

return frozen portions to the oven
and touch ENTER/START pad to
resume the defrost cycle.
WIRE RACK
The wire rack gives you extra space when
cooking in more than one container at the
same time.
To use rack:
1. Place rack securely in the four plastic
supports.
,, Rack MUST NOT touch metal walls
or back of microwave oven.
2. Place equal amounts of food both
ABOVE AND BELOW rack.
,, Amount of food must be
approximately the same to balance
out cooking energy.
IMPORTANT:
• DO NOT store or use the wire rack
in this oven unless more than one
item is being cooked or a recipe
calls for it.
• Damage to the oven could occur.
