Defrosting
tips
Use DEFROST BY FOOD TYPE for meat,
poultry and fish.
Use DEFROST BY TIME
for most other frozen foods.
■ Foods frozen in paper or plastic can
be defrosted in the
package when
using DEFROST BY TIME. Foods
should be taken out of the package
when using
DEFROST BY FOOD
TYPE
. Closed packages should be
slit, pierced or vented after food has
partially defrosted. Plastic storage
containers should be partially
uncovered.
■ Family-size, prepackaged frozen
dinners can be defrosted and
microwaved. If the food is in a foil
container, transfer it to a
microwave-safe dish.
■ Foods that spoil easily should not
be allowed to sit out for more than
one hour after defrosting. Room
temperature promotes the growth
of harmful bacteria.
■ For more even defrosting of
larger foods, such as roasts, use
DEFROST BY TIME. Be sure large
meats are completely defrosted
before cooking.
■ When defrosted, food should be
cool but softened in all areas.
If still slightly icy, return to the
microwave very briefly, or let
it stand a few minutes.
■ When defrosting 3 or more pounds
of ground or cubed meat, remove
defrosted portions at the turn
signals.
Use DEFROST BY TIME to defrost for a
selected length of time.
1. Press the DEFROST pad.
2. Turn the selector dial to DEFROST
BY TIME. Press the dial to enter.
3. Turn the dial to select the time you
want. Press the dial to enter.
4. Press the dial or START/PAUSE pad
to start defrosting.
5. Turn the food over when the oven
signals TURN FOOD OVER.
■ Power level is automatically set
at 3, but can be changed. To
change the power levels, see
Microwave power levels for
instructions.).
You can defrost small items quickly by
raising the power level after entering
the time. Power level 7 cuts the total
defrosting time in about half; power
level 10 cuts the total time to about
1/3. When defrosting at high power
levels, food will need more frequent
attention than usual.
