Defrost - Maytag MMW7730DS Guide D'utilisation Et D'entretien

The Defrost feature can be used, or the microwave oven can be
manually set to defrost by using 20% cook power.
Unwrap foods and remove lids (from fruit juice) before
defrosting. Remove any metal twist-ties and replace them
with strings or elastic bands.
If food is foil wrapped, remove foil and place it in a suitable
container.
Slit or pierce plastic pouches or packaging. Slit the skins, if
any, of frozen food such as sausage.
Bend plastic pouches of food to ensure even defrosting.
Always underestimate defrosting time. If defrosted food is still
icy in the center, return it to the microwave oven for more
defrosting.
The length of defrosting time varies according to how solidly
the food is frozen.
Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than deep blocks.
Separate food pieces as soon as possible during or at the
end of a 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.
