Defrost The Defrost feature can be used, or the microwave oven can be manually set to defrost by using 20% cook power. ■■ For optimal results, food should be 0°F (-18°C) or colder when defrosting. ■■ Unwrap foods and remove lids (from fruit juice) before defrosting. ■■ Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than deep blocks. ■■ Separate food pieces as soon as possible during or at the end of the cycle for more even defrosting. ■■ Foods left outside the freezer for more than 20 minutes or frozen ready-made food should not be defrosted using the Custom Defrost feature, but should be defrosted manually. ■■ 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" first. ■■ Times and cooking powers have been preprogrammed for defrosting a number of food types. For each food category, a precise amount of food can be entered or preprogrammed quantities can be selected. SpeedCook Foods The SpeedCook function uses the broil element, convection element and fan, and microwaves. All cycle on and off in intervals. ■■ Bakeware and the interior oven surfaces, including the door, will become hot. ■■ Always use an instant read thermometer to determine doneness of meat and poultry. ■■ Use microwave-safe and ovenproof bakeware. ■■ Do not use covers or containers made of foil, paper, waxed paper, or plastic not recommended for use in a conventional oven. ■■ When roasting, meats and poultry may spatter. Plastic oven bags designed for conventional oven use can be used for easier cleanup. Follow manufacturer's recommendations. ■■ When using the grilling grid or convection grid, place it directly on the turntable. ■■ Arrange pieces of food in a single layer on the crisper pan or baking dish.
