Defrosting Tips and Recommendations

•Defrost uncooked meat, fish and poultry using the DEFROST mode.

•Defrost mode is programmed using 30% microwave power.

•No thermal heat is used during DEFROST mode.

•The convection fan also runs during the DEFROST mode to help speed up defrosting.

•Center items on rack level 3 when defrosting.

•Remove store wrap and place in a shallow microwaveable container to catch juices.

•Use the chart below as a guide for determining defrosting time.

•When calculating defrosting time, allow 4 to 5 minutes per pound.

•Oven will pause automatically for rotating or turning food.

•Add more time in one minute increments until food is defrosted.

•Allow meat to stand covered after removing from oven to complete defrosting.

•Casseroles, sauced foods, vegetables and soups should be defrosted using HI (100%) microwave power level. Stir once or twice during defrosting to redistribute heat.
