DEFROST

DEFROST automatically defrosts all the foods shown in the
DEFROST TABLE.
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.)
To enter weight, touch the desired DEFROST pad for a 0.5
lb increase per touch. (Ex: touch four times for 2.0 lb.)
You must enter the weight within 1 second of touching the
Defrost pad, or the oven will begin defrosting. To return to
adjust the weight,

 you must touch Clear/Off twice

.

• Suppose you want to defrost a 2.0 pound steak.
1.Quickly touch 

Steak/Chops

 pad 4 times for 2.0 lb. The

microwave oven will start automatically.

The microwave oven will stop and directions will be
displayed. Follow the indicated message.
