Defrosting

• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and
poultry from original wrapping or packaging.
• For best results, shape your ground meat into
the form of a doughnut before freezing. When
defrosting, scrape off thawed meat when the
beep sounds and continue defrosting.
• Place foods in a shallow container or on a mi-
crowave roasting rack to catch drippings.
• Food should still be somewhat icy in the center
when removed from the oven.

convenience, the Auto Defrost includes a built-in
beep mechanism that reminds you to check, turn
over, separate or rearrange the food.
