evenly. This will allow the food to cook faster.
(Constant stirring is not necessary.)
Turning
▯
Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts or whole
cauliflower halfway through the cook time. This will
help to expose all sides equally to microwave energy.
Placing food
▯
Place delicate areas of food items, such as asparagus
tips, toward the center of the turntable tray.
Arranging food
▯
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken
pieces or salmon, with the thicker or meatier parts
toward the outside of the turntable tray.
Letting food stand
▯
After removing the food from the microwave, cover the
food with foil or a casserole lid and let it stand to finish
cooking. This will help the food finish cooking in the
center and avoids overcooking the outer edges. The
length of stand time depends on the density and
surface area of the food items.
Wrapping foods
▯
Sandwiches and many other food types containing
pre-baked bread should be wrapped in paper towels
or wax paper prior to placing in the microwave to help
prevent the food items from drying out while heating.

WARNING
9
HEALTH RISK
Liquid will be produced when defrosting meat or
poultry. Drain off this liquid when turning meat and
poultry, and under no circumstances, use it for other
purposes, or allow it to come into contact with other
foods.
Always enter the weight in lbs when using the defrost
▯
by weight feature (0.1 to 6.0 lbs).
Use the defrost mode for raw food items only.
▯
Defrosting gives best results when food to be thawed
▯
is a minimum of 0° F (taken directly from a 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
▯
aluminum foil, if they start to heat up.
Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield food items
like chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails.
Do not allow aluminum foil to touch the oven cavity
when defrosting.
