Note:
Check foods when oven signals. After final stage, small sections may still be icy. Let stand to continue thawing. Do not
defrost until all ice crystals are thawed.
Shielding prevents cooking from occurring before the center of the food is defrosted. Use small smooth strips of aluminum
foil to cover edges and thinner sections of the food.
MANUAL DEFROST
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
DEFROST CHART or is above or below the limits in the
Amount column on the DEFROST CHART, you need to
defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw or previously
cooked, by using Power Level 3. Follow the exact 3-step
procedure found under Time Cooking Microwave on page
15. Estimate defrosting time and press 3 for 30% when
you select the power level.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the
rule of thumb is approximately 5 minutes per pound.

PROCEDURE
For example, defrost 5 minutes for 1 pound of frozen
spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the microwave oven periodically to remove
or separate the portions that are defrosted. If food is not
defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting time,
program the oven in 1 minute increments on Power Level
3 until totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer, defrost
only long enough to remove from the plastic in order to
place in a microwave-safe dish.
