Defrost Tips

Tips Care and Cleaning

When using Auto Defrost, the weightto be entered is the net weightin poundsand tenths of pounds (theweight of the food minus the container).

Use Auto Defrost only for raw food. Auto Defrost givesbest results when food to be thawed is a minimum of 0°F (taken directly from a true freezer). If food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperatureof 5°F or below,always program a lower food weight (for a shorter defrosting time)

to prevent cooking the food.

If the food is stored outside the freezer for up to 20 minutes, enter a lower food weight.

The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quicklythan a deep block.

Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated pieces defrost moreeasily.

You can use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield foods like chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails, but the foil must not touch the side of the oven. Foil causes arcing, which can damage the oven lining.

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

For better results, a preset standing time is included in the defrosting time.

For best results, elevate food to be defrosted on a microwave-safe roasting rack. This prevents the possibility of warm meat juices cooking food during defrost.

A DEFROST PLATE is provided for complete defrosting of larger food items. Place the defrost plate on the glass tray plastic side down. Place the item to be defrosted directly on the defrost plate.
