Defrost Tips; Metal Rack - LG LMV1813SB Owner's Manual

DEFROST TIPS
• When using DEFROST, the weight to be entered is the
net weight in pounds and tenths of pounds (the weight of
the food minus the container).
• Use DEFROST only for raw food. DEFROST gives best
results when food to be thawed is a minimum of 0°F
(taken directly from a true freezer). If food has been
stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a
temperature of 5°F or below, always program a lower
food weight (for a shorter defrosting time) to prevent
cooking the food.
• If the food is stored outside the freezer for up to 20
minutes, enter a lower food weight.
• The shape of the package alters the defrosting time.
Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quickly than a
deep block.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Separated
pieces defrost more easily.
• You can use small pieces of aluminum foil to shield
foods like chicken wings, leg tips, and fish tails, but the
foil must not touch the side of the oven. Foil causes
arcing, which can damage the oven lining.
• Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start
to become warm.
• For better results, a preset standing time is included in
the defrosting time.
• For best results, elevate food to be defrosted on a
microwave safe roasting rack. This prevents the
possibility d warm meat juices cooking food during
defrost.
• Use the DEFROST PLATE provided for complete
defrosting.
• A DEFROST PLATE is provided for complete defrosting
of larger food items. Place the defrost plate on the glass
tray with TOP Mark Up. Place the item to be defrosted
directly on the defrost plate.
