Defrosting tips
When using auto defrost, the entered weight is the net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight of the food
minus the container).
Use the auto defrost cycle for raw food only. The auto defrost cycle gives best results when the food you want to thaw
is no colder than 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
the food from cooking.
If the food is left outside the freezer for more than 20 minutes, enter a lower food weight.
The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quickly than a thick
block.
Separate the 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 food such as chicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails, but the foil must
not touch the sides of the oven as foil causes arcing, which can damage the oven lining.

Start with the food placed fat side down. After each stage, turn the food over and shield
any warm portions with narrow strips of aluminum foil.
After each stage, rearrange the food. If there are any warm or 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 5 - 10 minutes.
After each stage, remove any pieces of food that are nearly defrosted. Let stand covered
with foil for 5 - 10 minutes.
Remove giblets before defrosting poultry. Start defrosting with the breast side down. After
the first stage, turn the chicken over and shield any warm portions with narrow strips of
aluminum foil. After the second stage, again shield any warm portions with narrow strips
of aluminum foil. Let stand, covered, for 30 - 60 minutes in the refrigerator.
After each stage, rearrange or remove any pieces of food that are nearly defrosted. Let
stand for 10 - 20 minutes.
Arrange the rolls in a circle on kitchen paper in the middle of the turntable.
Turn over halfway through the defrosting time.
Place chocolate chips or square in a microwave-safe dish.
Stir well at half time when the oven beeps, and re-start the oven.
Unless stirred, the chocolate keeps its shape even when heating time is
over.
Unwrap the cream cheese and place on microwave-safe dish.
Let stand 1-2 minutes.
Remove wrapping and cut butter in half vertically.
