20 OPERATION
- Always underestimate defrosting time. Food
should still be somewhat icy in the center
when removed from the oven. If defrosted
food is still frozen solid in the center, return it
to the upper oven for more defrosting.
- Depending on the shape of the food, some
areas may defrost more quickly than others.
- The shape of the package affects how quickly
food will defrost. Shallow packages will defrost
more quickly than a deep block.
- For best results, shape ground meat into the
form of a doughnut before freezing. When
defrosting, scrape off thawed meat when the
beep sounds and continue defrosting.
- Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield
parts of food such as chicken wings, leg tips,
fish tails, or areas that start to get warm. Make
sure the foil does not touch the sides, top, or
bottom of the oven. The foil can damage the
oven lining.
