OPERATING TIPS
• For best results, remove fish, shellfish, meat, and
poultry from Its original closed paper or plastic pack­
age (wrapper). Otherwise, the wrap will hold steam
and juice close to the foods, which can cause the
outer surface of the foods to cook.
• 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 microwave
roasting rack to catch drippings.
• Food should still be somewhat icy in the center when
removed from the oven.
EXPRESS DEFROST
This feature should be used only when you defrost 1
