Defrost should not be used for food left out of the freezer for more than 20 minutes, or for frozen ready-made food.

■Food should be 0°F (-18°C) or colder at the time the cycle is started for optimal results. How foods are stored can affect results.

■Unwrap foods and remove lids (for example, from fruit juice containers) before defrosting.

■Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than thick 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.
