Cooking in Stages
The microwave oven can be set to cook at different cooking

To Use Defrost As First Stage: Touch Defrost once. “dEF1” 
appears in the display. Enter the number of ounces betwee

4-7 above for second stage programming.
Defrost
The Defrost feature has two functions: dEF1, which is an 
automatic defrost by weight, and dEF2, which is a manual
 defrost by time. The default power level is 30%, and cannot
 be adjusted.
Unwrap foods and remove lids (for example, from fruit juice 
containers) before defrosting.
Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than deep blocks.
Separate food pieces as soon as possible during or at the 
end of the cycle for more even defrosting.
Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts of food 
such as chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails. See 
“Aluminum  Foil  and Metal” first.
The Defrost feature should not be used for food that has been
 left  outside the freezer for more than 20 minutes, or for
 
f
