[. . . ] Instructions for use W 201 W 204 www. whirlpool. com 1 INSTALLATION PRIOR TO CONNECTING Check that the voltage on the rating plate corresponds to the voltage in your home. Place the oven on a stable, even surface that is strong enough to hold the oven and the food utensils you put in it. Position the oven at a distance from other heating sources. The cooling air, which is taken in by the oven, must not exceed 35°C temperature. [. . . ] Each press increases the time with 30 seconds. You may also alter the time by turning the +/- button ( ) to increase or decrease the time. Pressing the power button may also change the power level. The first press will show you the current powerlevel. Press the power button repeatedly to change power level. 6 AUTO DEFROST FUNCTION Your microwave oven has a special automatic defrosting function, which provides you with good end results. The oven needs to know the type of food to be defrosted and the net weight of the food. Auto Defrost is used for defrosting of uncooked foods. 2 1 1. Press the AUTO DEFROST button repeatedly to choose food class. Turn the +/- knob ( ) to set the weight of the food to be defrosted. Press the START button. 1 3 MEAT (100 g - 2 Kg) * Pork chops * Steaks * Roasts * Minced meat 3 FISH (100 g - 2 Kg) * Cod steaks * Plaice fillets * Trout 2 POULTRY (100 g - 2 Kg) * Chicken, whole or in pieces IMPORTANT! When using the automatic defrost function, the weight to be entered is the net weight in grams meaning only the weight of the food, the vessel excluded. The Auto defrost function gives best results, if the food is at -18°C and the food to be defrosted is taken directly from the freezer. If the food is warmer than deep-freeze temperature (-18°C) e. g. is stored in the freezing compartment of the refrigerator, which is not a three star, the defrosting time calculated by the oven will be too long and you may risk overcooking the food. Choose in that case lower weight of the food and by that shorter defrosting time. Choose also lower weight of the food to be defrosted, if the food is stored outside the freezer for times up to 20 minutes. Defrost by time and power if the food is stored outside the freezer for more than 20 minutes and for defrosting ready-made food. Standing time always improves the result. Small pieces of aluminium foil may be used to shield e. g. chicken wings, leg tips and fish-tails but the foil must not touch the side of the oven as damage may occur. MANUAL DEFROST FUNCTION Follow the procedure for ”Time and Power” and choose Power 160 when defrosting manually. When softening ice-cream or butter you should adjust the setting to Power 90. Experience will give you the times needed for various amounts. JET START This function is used for quick reheating of foods with a high water content such as; clear soups, coffe or tea. Press the Jet start button to automatically start with full microwave power level and the cooking time set to 30 seconds. [. . . ] Do not spray directly on the oven.
