Auto Defrost
The temperature and density of food vary, 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 is cooked so quickly that it is sometimes better to begin cooking while
still slightly frozen. The paneer programme is suitable for defrosting frozen paneer. These will require a standing
time to allow the centre to thaw. In the following example I will show you how to defrost 1.4kg of frozen poultry.
Press
STOP/CLEAR.
Weigh the food that you are about to defrost. Be certain to remove any
metallic ties or wraps; then place the food on microwave safe dish on
the low rack on the metal tray and close the oven door.
Press
GRILL TEMP./AUTO DEF.
twice ( ).
Turn CONTROL dial knob until display shows “dEF2”.
Press ENTER/CLOCK for category confirmation.
Enter the weight of the frozen food that you are about to defrost.
Turn
CONTROL
dial knob until display shows “1.4kg” for the weight of
frozen food.
Your oven has four microwave defrost
settings:-
MEAT, POULTRY, FISH and
PANEER ; each defrost category has
different power settings.
Press START/Q-START.
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
START/Q-START to resume defrosting.
Your oven will not stop defrosting (even when the beep sounded) unless the door is opened.
