Defrost

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
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 the "Aluminum
Foil and Metal" section first.
Times and cooking powers have been preset for defrosting a
■
number of food types.
