Your oven has four microwave defrost
settings:-
MEAT, POULTRY, FISH
and
BREAD
; each defrost category has
different power settings. Repeated
presses of the
AUTO DEFROST
key will
select a different setting.
The temperature and density of food varies, I would recommend that the food is 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 1.4 kg
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
START
to resume defrosting.
Your oven will not stop/clear defrosting (even when the beep sounds) unless the door is opened.
