If the thawing has not been completed (No in S112), the thawing is continued, and it is determined in step S112 whether the thawing has been completed. This is repeated until thawing is complete. If the thawing is completed (Yes in S112), the process proceeds to step S113 in order to continue the “grill function” since the thawing has been completed.

- a temperature detection unit that detects the temperature of at least one of the heating dish 402 or the object to be heated may be provided. When a temperature different from the predetermined temperature is detected, it can be determined that the regular heating dish 402 is not used and misused.
- a weight detection unit that detects the weight of at least one of the heating dish 402 and the object to be heated may be provided. When a weight different from the predetermined weight is detected, it can be determined that the regular heating dish 402 is not used and misused.
- the present invention can be continuously heated from thawing, it can be used for a microwave heating apparatus such as a microwave oven.
