SPECIAL FEATURES DEFROST Defrost automatically defrosts ground meat, steaks, chops and poultry. Round the weight to the nearest half pound. (Ex. if the steak's actual weight is 2.2 lb, round to 2.0 lb. If the steak's weight is 2.4 lb, round to 2.5 lb.) • Suppose you want to defrost a 2.0 lb steak. PROCEDURE 1 You do not need to select food. To enter weight, touch the DEFROST pad for a .5 lb increase per touch. Quickly touch DEFROST x 4 pad 4 times for 2.0 lb be- cause the oven starts auto- matically. The oven will stop so that the food can be checked. 2 After the 1st stage, open the door. Turn steak over and shield any warm por- tions. Close the door. Touch START pad. 3 After the 2nd stage, open the door. Shield any warm portions. Close the door. Touch START pad. NOTE: 1. Defrost can only be entered within 3 minutes after cooking, opening and closing the door or touching the STOP/CLEAR pad. 2. Defrost can be programmed with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 16. 3. You may choose to enter the weight in tenths of pounds. This procedure may be easier with larger weights such as 3.0 lb because it requires fewer touches. To program, touch DEFROST and enter weight by touching the number pads. Example: touch DEFROST then 3 and 0 for a weight of three pounds. If you attempt to enter more or less than the allowed amount, E E will appear in the display. 4. To defrost other foods or foods above or below the weights allowed on DEFROST CHART below, use time and 30% power. See Manual Defrost on page 12. 4 After defrost cycle ends, cover and let stand as indicated in chart below. DEFROST CHART FOOD AMOUNT PROCEDURE Ground Meat .5-3.0 lb Remove any thawed pieces after each stage. (0.3-1.3 kg) Let stand, covered, 5 to 10 minutes. Steaks/Chops .5-3.0 lb After each stage of defrost cycle, rearrange and if there are warm or (0.3-1.3 kg) thawed portions, shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil. Remove any meat that is nearly defrosted. Let stand, covered, 10 to 20 minutes. Boneless Poultry .5-3.0 lb Use boneless breast of chicken or turkey. After each stage, if there are (0.3-1.3 kg) warm or thawed portions, rearrange or remove. Let stand, covered, for 10 to 20 minutes. Bone-in Poultry .5-3.0 lb Arrange pieces with meatiest portions toward outside of glass dish or (0.3-1.3 kg) microwave safe rack. After each stage, if there are warm or thawed portions, rearrange or remove. Let stand, covered, for 10 to 20 minutes. NOTE: Check foods when oven signals. After final stage, small sections may still be icy. Let stand to continue thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals are thawed. Shielding prevents cooking from occurring before the center of the food is defrosted. Use small smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover edges and thinner sections of the food. 11
