SPECIAL FEATURES MANUAL DEFROST If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the CompuDefrost Chart or is above or below the limits in the "Amount" column on the CompuDefrost Chart, you need to defrost manually. You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously cooked, by using Power Level 3. Follow the exact 3-step procedure found under Time Cooking on page 11. Estimate defrosting time and press 3 for 30% when you select the power level. For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the rule of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound.

Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting time, program the oven in 1 minute increments on Power Level 3 until totally defrosted. When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to place in a microwave-safe dish. NOTE: 1. To use POPCORN pad, touch within 1 minute after cooking, opening and closing the door or touching the STOP/CLEAR pad. 2. POPCORN can be programmed with More or Less Time Adjustment. See page 17.
