Defrosting foods
➢ Before defrosting, make sure you have
removed any metal twist-ties which often
come with frozen food bags.
➢ Open containers before they are placed in
the microwave oven.
➢ Always pierce plastic pouches or packages.
Always shake gentle to ensure even
defrosting.
➢ If food is wrapped in foil, remove it and place
the food in a suitable container.
➢ Pierce the skins of frozen foods such as
sausages.
➢ The length of defrosting time depends on
how solid the food is, if the food is still icy in
the center, return it to the microwave oven
for more defrosting.
➢ As food starts to defrost, separate or remove
the pieces, it will defrost more easily.
➢ Turn food over for even defrosting.
➢ For best results, let the food stand after
defrosting.

poultry and seafood by weight. The range of weights

will stop and two tones will sound. This is to allow
you to turn the food over for even cooking. To
resume cooking, touch the 'Start' pad.
