Press .
Your oven has four microwave defrost
settings:- Meat, Poultry, Fish and Bread;
each defrost category has different
power settings.
Repeated presses of the Defrost button
will select a different setting.
The temperature and density of food varies, I would recommend that the food be checked before cooking
commences. Pay particular attention to large joints of meat and chicken, some foods should not be
completely thawed before cooking. For example fish cooks so quickly that it is sometimes better to begin
cooking while still slightly frozen. The bread programme is suitable for defrosting small items such as rolls
or a small loaf. These will require a standing time to allow the centre to thaw. In the following example I
will show you how to defrost 0.8Kg of frozen poultry.
During defrosting your oven will “BEEP”, at which point open the oven door, turn food over and separate to
ensure even thawing. Remove any portions that have thawed or shield them to help slow down thawing. After
checking, close the oven door and press to resume defrosting.
Your oven will not stop defrosting (even when the beep sounded) unless the door is opened.
* When defrosting, use only rack.
