TIPS: Allow foods to stand a few minutes after defrosting to equalize the temperature for better cooking results.

Check food after standing. If additional time is needed, continue to defrost with time cooking. It is better to defrost with 30% power for R-22GT/23GT/24GT/25JT. For R-22GV, it is better to defrost with Express Defrost continuously.

Foods that are the same thickness throughout defrost better. If foods have varied thickness, it may be necessary to shield the thin edges with small flat pieces of aluminum foil to prevent overdefrosting.

Midway through the defrosting cycle, CHECK will light in the display and an audible signal will be heard. You may open the door, turn food over and shield any warm portions.

Close the door.
