Power/Auto Defrosting Guide

Follow the instructions below when defrosting different types of food.

FOOD	AMOUNT	PROCEDURE
		Start with the food placed fat side down. After each stage,
Roast beef,	2.5-6.0 lbs.	turn the food over and shield any warm portions with narrow
pork		strips of aluminum foil. Let stand, covered, for 10-20
		minutes.
		After each stage, rearrange the food. If there are any warm or
Steaks,	0.5-3.0 lbs.	thawed portions of food, shield them with narrow flat pieces
chops, fish		of aluminum foil. Remove any pieces of food that are nearly
		defrosted. Let stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes.
Ground meat	0.5-3.0 lbs.	After each stage, remove any pieces of food that are nearly
		defrosted. Let stand, covered with foil, for 5-10 minutes.
		Remove giblets before freezing poultry. Start defrosting with
		the breast side down. After the first stage, turn the chicken
Whole	2.5-6.0 lbs.	over and shield any warm portions with narrow strips of
chicken		aluminum foil. After the second stage, again shield any
		warm portions with narrow strips of aluminum foil. Let stand,
		covered, for 30-60 minutes in the refrigerator.
Chicken	0.5-3.0 lbs.	After each stage, rearrange or remove any pieces of food that
pieces		are nearly defrosted. Let stand for 10-20 minutes.

Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections may still be icy; let them stand to continue thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals have thawed. Shielding roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil prevents the edges from cooking before the center of the food has defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover the edges and thinner sections of the food.
