SPECIAL FEATURES
Manual Defrost
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on the
CompuDefrost Chart or is above or below the limns in the
"Amount" column on the chart, you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost any frozen food, either raw
cooked, by using power level 3. Follow the
procedure found under Time Cooking on page 11. Estimate
defrosting time and press 3 for 30% when you select the power
level.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food, the rule of
thumb is approximately 5 minutes per pound. For example,
defrost 5 minutes for 2-3 cups of casserole or
spaghetti sauce.
Always stop the oven periodically to remove or separate
portions that are defrosted. If food is not defrosted at the end of
proqrarn
the estimated defrosting time,
increments on power level 3 until totally defrosted.
When using plastic containers from the freezer,
long enough to remove trom the plastic in order to place food
in a microwave-safe dish.
