DEFROSTING TIPS
• When using ZIP DEFROST, you need to enter the
net weight (the weight of the food minus
the container). Enter the weight to the nearest
1/10 Ib (45 g).
• Only use ZIP DEFROST for raw food.
ZiP DEFROST gives best results when the
food to be thawed is completely frozen. If the
food is partially defrosted, always set a lower
food weight (for a shorter defrosting time) to
prevent cooking the food.
• For better results, a preset standing time is
included in the defrosting time. This may make
the defrosting time seem longer than expected.
(For more information on standing time, see the
"Microwave cooking tips" in the "Cooking Guide"
section.)

You are probably used to food weights as being in
pounds and ounces that are fractions of a pound
(for example 4 ounces equals ¼ Ib [113 g]). However,
in order to enter food weight in ZIP DEFROST, you
must specify pounds and tenths of a pound.
if the weight on the food package is in fractions of
a pound, you can use the following chart to con-
vert the weight to decimals.
