Defrosting Tips - LG MS-196VUT Owner's Manual

Defrosting
Tips
• You can defrost meats in their original wrapping as long as no metal is present. Remove
any metal rings, twist ties, wire or foil.
• Place meat in a shallow baking dish to catch juices.
• Defrost meats only as long as necessary. Separate items like chops, sausages and bacon
as soon as possible. Remove defrosted portions and continue to defrost remaining pieces.
