Questions and Answers

Q. When I press START,

I

hear a

dull, thumping noise. What is it?

A. This sound is normal.

lt

is

letting you know the oven is using

a

power level lower than 1() (High).

Q. Can I defrost small items in

a hurry?

A. Yes, but they will need more

frequent attention

than

usual. Raise

the power level

after

entering the

time by touching the desired power

level pad. Power level 7 cuts the

total

defrosting time in

about

1/2;

Power level

10

cuts the total

defrosting time to

approximtitely

1/3.

During either, rotate or stir

food

frequently.

Q. Why don’t the defrosting

times in the cookbook seem

right for my food?

A. These times are averages.

Defrosting time

can

vary according

to the temperature in your freezer.

Set your oven

for

the time

indicated in your cookbook.

If

your food is still not completely

thawed at the end of that time,

reset your oven and adjust the time

accordingly.

Q. Should all foods be completely

thawed before cooking?

A. Some foods should not be

completely thawed before cooking.

For example, fish cooks so quickly

it is better to begin cooking while

it is still slightly frozen.

Q. Can I open the door during

defrosting to check on the

progress of my food?

A. Yes. You may open the door

at

any time during microwaving. To

resume defrosting, close the door

and press START. The oven begins

operating

if time is left on timer.

If

not, reset timer.
