Defrosting
You can defrost frozen food in your appliance.
Tips for defrosting food
¡
The Steam function is suitable for defrosting frozen
fruit and vegetables.
¡
Use the 4D hot air heating function to defrost baked
goods.
¡
It is better to defrost poultry, meat and fish in the re-
frigerator.
¡
Remove frozen food from its packaging before you
defrost it.
¡
Accessory/cookware:
– Place frozen fruit and vegetables into the perfor-
ated steaming tray (size XL). To catch any liquids
that drip down, place the universal pan into the
cooking compartment below the steaming tray.
– Frozen food for which the liquid is an integral
component and needs to be retained (e.g. frozen
creamed spinach) should be placed into the uni-
versal pan or into a piece of cookware that is
then placed onto the wire rack.
– Place baked goods directly onto the wire rack.
¡
The recommended settings are for freezer-temperat-
ure food (-18 °C).
Reheating
You can use steam-assisted reheating to gently warm
up food. The food tastes and looks as though it has
been freshly cooked. You can even warm and crisp up
baked goods from the day before.
Tips for reheating food
¡
Use uncovered, heat-resistant cookware that is suit-
able for cooking with steam.
¡
Use wide, shallow cookware. Reheating takes
longer if you use cold cookware.
¡
Place the cookware on the wire rack.
¡
Place food that you are not reheating in cookware
(e.g. bread rolls) directly onto the wire rack at
level 2.
¡
Do not cover the food.
¡
Do not open the cooking compartment door while
the food is being reheated, otherwise large amounts
of steam will escape.
¡
Wipe the cooking compartment dry after using it to
reheat food.

Keeping food warm
Tips for keeping food warm
¡
Using the "Keep warm" heating function prevents
condensation from forming. You will not have to
wipe down the cooking compartment.
¡
Do not cover the food.
¡
Do not keep food warming for longer than 2 hours.
¡
Be aware that some types of food will actually con-
tinue cooking when you are keeping them warm in
the oven.
The different added steam levels are suitable for
keeping the following foods warm:
¡
Level 1: Joints and briefly roasted food
¡
Level 2: Bakes and side dishes
¡
Level 3: Stews and soups
