Weight conversion chart
You are probably used to food weights as being in pounds and ounces that are fractions of a pound (for example, 4 ounces equals 1⁄4 pound). However, in order to enter food weight in CUSTOM DEFROST, you must specify pounds and tenths of a pound. If the weight on the food package is in fractions of a pound, you can use the following chart to convert the weight to decimals.
OUNCES | DECIMAL | POUND |
WEIGHT | WEIGHT | WEIGHT |

1.6 | .10 |

Defrosting tips
•When using CUSTOM DEFROST, the weight to be entered is the net weight in pounds, and tenths of pounds (the weight of the food minus the container).
•CUSTOM DEFROST gives best results when food to be thawed is a minimum of 0°F or colder.
•If the food is kept outside the freezer for more than 20 minutes, and for defrosting
•The shape of the package affects how quickly food will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than a deep block.
•As food begins to defrost, separate the pieces. Separated pieces defrost more
evenly.
