Manual
defrost
If the food that you wish to defrost is not listed on
the Defrost chart or is above or below the limits in
the Amount column on the Defrost chart (see page
22), you need to defrost manually.
You can defrost
any frozen food, either
raw or
previously cooked,
by using Power Level for 30%.
Follow the exact 3-step procedure found under To
set power level. Estimate defrosting time and press
power level pad eight times for 30% power.
For either raw or previously cooked frozen food the
rule of thumb is approximately 4 minutes per pound.
For example, defrost 4 minutes for 1 pound of frozen
spaghetti sauce.
Always
stop the oven periodically
to remove or
separate the portions that are defrosted.
If food is
not defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting
time, program the oven in 1 minute increments on
power level 30% until totally defrosted.
When using plastic
containers
from the freezer,
defrost only long enough to remove from the plastic
in order to place in a microwave-safe
dish.
