Normal amount
Suggestions
2.5 to 6 lbs.
Start with the food placed fat side down. After each stage, turn
(40 to 96 oz.)
the food over and shield any warm portions with narrow strips of
aluminum foil. Let stand, covered for 15-30 minutes.
0.5 to 3 lbs.
After each stage, rearrange the food. If there are any warm or
(8 to 48 oz.)
thawed portions of food, shield them with narrow flat pieces of
aluminum foil.
Remove any pieces of food that are nearly defrosted. Let stand,
covered for about 5 to 10 minutes.
0.5 to 3 lbs.
After each stage, remove any pieces of food that are nearly
(8 to 48 oz.)
defrosted.
Let stand, covered with foil for 5 to 10 minutes.
2.5 to 6 lbs.
Remove giblets before freezing poultry. Start defrosting with the
(40 to 96 oz.)
breast side down. After the 1st stage, turn the chicken over and
shield any warm portions with narrow strips of aluminum foil.
After the 2nd stage, again shield any warm portions with narrow
strips of aluminum foil. Let stand, covered, for 30 to 60 minutes in
the refrigerator.
0.5 to 3 lbs.
After each stage, rearrange or remove any pieces of food that are
(8 to 48 oz.)
nearly defrosted. Let stand for 10-20 minutes.
Note: Power levels cannot be changed for both defrost
(by weight) or defrost (by time) because the defrost
performance will be adversely affected.
Special notes for defrosting by time
• After pressing START+30 sec key, the display will
count down remaining defrost time. The oven will
beep during the defrost cycle. At this time open
the door and turn the food if needed and remove
any portions that have already thawed. Touch the
START+30 sec key to resume the defrost cycle.
• When heating has finished you will hear beeps.
Defrosting tips
• When using the defrost weight feature, the weight
entered should always be pounds (valid entries are
from 0.1 to 6.0 pounds).
• Use both defrost weight and defrost time features
for raw food items only. Defrosting gives best results
when food to be thawed is a minimum of 0°F (taken
directly from a true freezer). If the 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 or lower cook time to prevent
cooking the food.
• If the frozen food is stored outside the freezer for up
to 20 minutes, enter a reduced cook time or weight.
• The shape of the package will alter the defrosting
time. Shallow rectangular food packets defrost more
quickly than a deep frozen block of food.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated
frozen pieces of food defrost better.
• Shield warm areas of food with small pieces of foil if
they start to become warm.
• You may use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield
food items like chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails,
but do not allow the foil to touch the oven cavity
walls when defrosting.
