Defrosting tips

When using the defrost by weight feature, the weight entered should always be pounds (valid entries are from 0.1 to 6.0 pounds).

Use both defrost weight and defrost time features for raw food items only. Defrosting gives best results when food to be thawed is a minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a true freezer). If the food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5° F or below, always program a lower food weight or lower cook time to prevent cooking the food.

If the frozen food is stored outside the freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a reduced cook time or weight.

The shape of the package will alter the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular food packets defrost more quickly than a deep frozen block of food.

Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated frozen pieces of food defrost better.

Shield warm areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to become warm.

You may use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield food items like chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails, but do not allow the foil to touch the oven cavity walls when defrosting.
