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
Custom 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 preprogrammed for
defrosting a number of food types. For each food category a
precise amount of food can be entered or preprogrammed
quantities can be selected.
• Manual Defrost requires that a cook time and power level be
entered if using other than 30% cook power.
