Questions and Answers
Q. What will happen if I
accidentally reverse my defrost,
hold and cook instructions?
A. The oven will automatically
rearrange your program. Defrosting
will always come first, then hold,
and then the cooking function.
Q. Can Idefrost and hold only?
A. Yes. Sometimes you may only
want to defrost afood, hold it, and ~
cook it later. All you need to do is
program in defrost and amount of
time. Then program the hold time
and the amount of cooking time. Be
sure to put the thawed dish in the
refrigerator promptly.
N~E: Let foods remain at room
temperature only as long as safe.
Times will vary.
Q. Iprogrammed my oven for
aspecific defrosting time but it
defrosted longer than necessary.
What happened?
A. When instructions conflict,
the oven carries out the last
instruction. You may have set the
oven to defrost for 4minutes, hold
for 2minutes, and then defrost for
6minutes. In this case, the oven
would defrost for 6minutes and
hold for 2minutes.
