SETTING
DEFROST BY
WEIGHT
Set DEFROST BY WEIGHT for any weight up to 6 pounds. Because it is a more gentle defrost setting
than“Speed Defrost”, it is especially good for meats which are dense in the center but vulnerable to
overcooking on the edges. For meats as small as a pound of hamburger or delicate shrimp, choosing
DEFROST BY WEIGHT will give more even thawed results than SPEED DEFROST setting. Choose
DEFROST BY WEIGHT for large roasts. Check weight of meat. It must be in pounds and ounces. If label
gives weight in pounds only, you can change the fraction of a pound to ounces using chart on page 10.
Unwrap meat before defrosting. Touch DEFROST BY WEIGHT pad. Word prompt ENTER shows in display
and 0’s show where LB and OZ should be entered. LB flashes until you enter pound(s) by touching correct
number pad.When pound(s) has been entered, LB will stop flashing and OZ will flash. As soon as all these
digits have been set, display will immediately show cook time. Ounce weights less than 10 must be preceded
by a 0. As soon as three digits are set, display immediately shows cook time.
Touch START/STOP pad to start oven. CODE flashes in display as time counts down. Interior light goes on,
turntable rotates and fan sound is heard. After partial defrosting, oven beeps twice and stops. Interior light
goes off but time remains on the display. This pause in operation is to allow turning over, rearranging or
shield. After attending to meat appropriately, touch START to resume the time on display and finish cooking.
After total cooking time, 4 long beeps sound and END appears in display. Touch RESET or open oven door to
clear END before starting another cooking function.
NOTES: Allow enough time for defrosting because it is more slow and gradual thanSPEED DEFROST. With
DEFROST BYWEIGHT, low power microwaving is interspersed within “resting”and “standing” periods
where no microwaves at all enter the oven. These no-microwave periods allow meat to equalize in temperature
before next period of microwaving automatically comes on.“DEPROST BY WEIGHT” automatically sets the
correct thawing time, but you must enter the food weight accurately. Weight must be in pounds and ounces.
Place meat on microwave-safe rack in microwave roasting dish. Place meats fat-side down and poultry breast-
side down.
SETTING
SAFETY LOCK
The safety lock prevents unsupervised operation by little children. During idle mode, press and hold the
RESET pad for 3 seconds to activate the child lock function. To cancel the child lock, press and hold the
RESET pad for 3 seconds again in idle mode.
ABOUT “ONE TOUCH” COOKING: Your oven has 6 “ONE TOUCH”cooking programs for microwaving
popular foods.When selecting a “ONE TOUCH”setting, check visual guide on pad for correct setting. Where
dots (.) (..) are shown on a “ONE TOUCH”pad, more than one size of food can be cooked. Three “ONE
TOUCH”settings allow you to cook several amounts (one or more items) of the same food. These include the
“FROZEN DINNER”, “BAKED POTATO” and “BEVERAGE”. After you touch these pads, AMT (amount)
appears on the display as a reminder to program the number of items you are microwaving into the oven’s
control. The categories which have dots corresponding to two sizes of foods include: “FROZEN DINNER”,
“BAKED POTATO”, ”PIZZA”AND “BEVERAGE”. In each “ONE TOUCH COOK”category, smaller size
food is set by touching pad once. One dot (.) below picture of smaller-size food signifies one touch of the pad.
The large size can be set by tapping the picture pad twice. Two dots (..) below the picture of large size food
signifies two taps of the pad. Where AMT appears with “ONE TOUCH” settings, setting a greater number of
items than allowed will result in two beeps, signaling an error. The following pages give the maximum number
of items allowed for each setting.
