Defrost

The Defrost feature can be used, or the microwave oven can be manually set to defrost by using 30% cook power.

■For optimal results, food should be 0°F (-18°C) or colder when defrosting.

■Unwrap foods and remove lids (from fruit juice) before defrosting.

■Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than deep blocks.

■Separate food pieces as soon as possible during or at the end of the cycle for more even defrosting.

■Foods left outside the freezer for more than 20 minutes or frozen ready-made food should not be defrosted using the Defrost feature, but should be defrosted manually.

■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.

■Times and cooking powers have been preset for defrosting a number of food types.

■Manual Defrost requires that a cook time and power level be entered if using other than 30% cook power.
