Defrost tips
When using AUTO 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 AUTO DEFROST only for raw food AUTO 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
Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to become warm
You can use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield foods like chicken wings, leg tips, and sh tails, but the
foil must not touch the side of the oven Foil causes arcing, which can damage the oven lining
