halfway around, and switch plates between top and bottom (if

The turntable must be turned off while heating 2 bottom plates or
1 larger dish. See "Turntable" section.
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 (for example, from fruit juice
containers) 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.
