AUTO DEFROST

Prepare the food for defrosting.

•Place the food in a flat, shallow baking dish or use a microwave roasting rack in the dish to catch drippings.

•Pierce meats with a casing, such as hot dogs and sausage, to allow steam to escape.

® Cover fatty or thin areas of meat with a small amount of foil before defrosting to prevent them from cooking.

During the defrosting cycle, remember:

•Check the food. If items often cook at the edges when defrosting, reduce the weight you set.

®Be sure to turn, stir or rotate the food as directed.

After defrosting, remember:

• Be sure all areas of the food item are totally defrosted.

o Pierce dense roasts with a skewer to check whether defrosting is complete.

•Rinse poultry and seafood in cold water.

•Remove the giblets from poultry and rinse ice crystals out of the cavity.

•Food should still be some what icy in the center when you remove it from the oven.

NOTE : Do not confuse Power Level 3, used to thaw or reheat convenient foods or small bread items, with AUTO DEFROST. Power Level 3 is a low-energy setting used to cook foods that need slow or gentle cooking.
