areas from becoming warm during defrosting. Ensure the foil does not touch the oven walls.

•  Do not cook the meat or poultry until thoroughly defrosted.
•  Do not use the racks or square trays for defrosting.

WEIGHT RANGE FOR EXPRESS COOK / EXPRESS DEFROST:
•  Weigh all meat and poultry prior to cooking/defrosting as the labelled weight is only approximate.

•  You are restricted to cook/defrost a weight within the range given in the charts.
•  To cook/defrost weights or foods not included in these charts, please refer to the charts in the cookbook 

section.
