DEFROSTING TIPS
• When using DEFROST, the weight to be entered
is the net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds
(the weight of the food minus the container.)
• Use DEFROST only for raw food. DEFROST gives
best results when food to be thawed is a minimum
of 0°F (taken directly from a true freezer). If food
has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does
not maintain a temperature of 5°F or below,
always program a lower food weight (for a shorter
defrosting time.) to prevent cooking the food.
• If the food is stored outside the freezer for up to
20 minutes, enter a lower food weight.
• The shape of the package alters the defrosting
time. Shallow rectangular packets defrost more
quickly than a deep block.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.
Separated pieces defrost more easily.
• You can use small pieces of aluminum foil to
shield foods like chicken wings, leg tips, and fish
tails, but the foil must not touch the side of the
oven. Foil causes arcing, which can damage the
oven lining.
• Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if
they start to become warm.
• For better results, a preset standing time is
included in the defrosting time.
