COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
AUTO DEFROSTING GUIDE
Follow the instructions below when defrosting different types of food.
Notes
Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections may still be icy; let them stand to
continue thawing.
Shielding roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil prevents the edges from cooking before the center of the
food has defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover the edges and thinner sections of
the food.
Food Amount Procedure
Roast Beef, Pork 2.5-5.0 lbs.
Start with the food placed fat side down. After each stage, turn
the food over and shield any warm portions with narrow
strips of aluminum foil.
Steaks, Chops, Fish 0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, rearrange the food. If there are any warm or
thawed portions of food, shield them with narrow flat pieces of
aluminum foil. Remove any pieces of food that are nearly
defrosted. Let stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes.
Ground Meat 0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, remove any pieces of food that are nearly
defrosted. Let stand, covered with foil, for 5–10 minutes.
Whole Chicken 2.5-6.0 lbs.
Remove giblets before freezing poultry. Start defrosting with the
breast side down. After the first stage, turn the chicken over and
shield any warm portions with narrow strips of aluminum foil. After
the second stage, again shield any warm portions with narrow
strips of aluminum foil. Let stand, covered, for 30–60 minutes in the
refrigerator.
Chicken Pieces 0.5-2.0 lbs.
After each stage, rearrange or remove any pieces of food that are
nearly defrosted. Let stand for 10-20 minutes.
