The ULTRA DEFROST
TM
feature has 4 categories: Meat, Poultry,
Fish and Bread. It should not be used for food left outside the
freezer more than 20 minutes and frozen ready-made food. The
microwave oven can also be manually set to defrost.
•
Food should be 0°F (-18°C) or colder at defrosting for optimal
results. How foods are stored can affect results.
Unwrap foods and remove lids (from fruit juice) before
defrosting.
Thin packages will defrost more quickly than thick blocks.
Separate food pieces as soon as possible during, or at the
end of the cycle for more even defrosting.
Use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield parts of food such
as chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails. See "Aluminum
Foil
and Metal" section first.
