Tips for defrosting meat
For the best results, use these suggestions when defrosting meat:
Cooking with the sensor
Sensor cooking detects the humidity released by your cooking food and adjusts the cooking time based on the type
and amount of food cooking.
• Press Sensor Reheat, then press START. Your microwave automatically sets the cook time.
When using sensor cooking:
• Casseroles: Add 2-3 tablespoons of liquid, cover with a lid or vented plastic wrap. Stir when instructed from the
display.
• Canned foods: Place the contents into a microwave-safe dish and cover with a loose-fitting lid or vented plastic
wrap. Let it stand a few minutes before serving.
• Plates of food: Arrange food on the plate. Cover with a loose-fitting lid or vented plastic wrap. Let it stand a few
minutes before serving.
Note
You may enter any weight from 0.1 to 6.0 lbs.
Tips
For best results:
• Use defrost only for raw food items.
• Defrosting gives best results when your food is taken directly from the freezer. If
the food has been stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a
temperature of 5°F (-15°C) or below, always program a lower food weight or lower
cook time to prevent cooking the food.
• Enter a reduced weight if the frozen food has been outside the freezer for more
than 20 minutes.
• The shape of the food package alters the defrosting time. For example, a shallow,
rectangular food package will defrost more quickly than a deep block of food.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost.
