EASY DEFROST MENU GUIDE

Food not listed in the Guide can be defrosted using 30 % setting.

NOTE: When freezing minced meat, shape it into flat even sizes.

For chicken pieces, steaks and chops, freeze separately in single flat layers and if necessary

interleave with freezer plastic to separate layers. This will ensure even defrosting.

It is also a good idea to label the packs with the correct weights.
