Jet Defrost
The Jet Defrost feature can be used or the microwave oven can
be manually set to defrost.
Unwrap foods and remove lids (for example, from fruit juice
containers) before defrosting.
Shallow packages will defrost more quickly than deep blocks.
Separate food pieces as soon as possible during or at the
end of cycle for more even defrosting.
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.
The Jet Defrost feature is for meat, poultry and fish only, between
4 and 70 oz (100 and 2000 g). It should not be used for food left
outside the freezer more than 20 minutes and frozen ready-made
food. Use the following chart as a guide.

stew
Lamb: stew and chops
Pork: chops, ribs, roasts,
