Portions and pieces of raw meat, poultry and fish, frozen soups, pastry, fruit or leftovers will thaw more quickly on this setting than on a counter or in the refrigerator. Thaw only pieces or portions small enough to thaw in an hour or less and do not let food come to room temperature. Thawed food held too long or at a warm temperature can cause bacteria to form. Large amounts of food should be defrosted in a refrigerator. 17
