The microwave function can be used to
defrost food gently and quickly.
The following settings are
recommended as a general guide:
– 80 W
for defrosting very delicate food, e.g.
cream, butter, gateau and cheese.
– 150 W
for defrosting everything else.
See the chart on the next page for
defrosting durations.
^
Remove the food from its packaging
and place it in a microwave-safe
container.
^
Place the container centrally on the
glass tray and slide into the lowest
shelf level.
If defrosting a large quantity, e.g. 2 kg
of fish, you can place the food directly
on the glass tray and then slide it into
the lowest shelf level.
Turn, stir or separate the food about
half-way through the defrosting time.
After defrosting
Allow the food to stand at room
temperature long enough to allow the
temperature to spread evenly
throughout the food.
