TIP: Allow food to stand a few minutes after defrosting to equalize the temperature for better cooking results.
Check food after standing. If additional time is needed, continue to defrost with DEFROST button and additional
time. Foods that are the same thickness throughout defrost better. If foods have varied thickness, it may be
necessary to shield the thin edges with small flat pieces of aluminum foil to prevent overdefrosting.
You can defrost foods by using the MED LOW button.
