Defrosting
▯
To defrost food, use the "Defrost" heating function.
▯
The defrosting times specified are intended as a
guide only. The defrosting time depends on the
size, weight and shape of the frozen food. This
reduces the defrosting time.
▯
Slide the wire rack with the frozen food into the
second rack level (into the third rack level if there
are five rack levels). Slide the glass dish/grill tray
underneath to catch any liquid that drips down as
the food defrosts.
▯
Remove the food from the packaging before
defrosting.
▯
Do not defrost more food than you intend to eat on
this occasion.
▯
Remember: Once defrosted, food may not keep for
as long and spoils faster than fresh food. Prepare
defrosted food immediately and cook it thoroughly.
▯
After half the defrosting time has elapsed, turn the
meat or fish. Break up frozen clumps of food
comprising many pieces, e.g. berries and pieces of
meat. Fish does not need to be fully defrosted; it is
sufficient to defrost it until the surface is soft
enough for seasoning/spices to stick.
▯
The oven is not suitable for defrosting whole
chickens or joints of meat as this takes a very long
time. Steam ovens and combination steam ovens
can be used to defrost this kind of food much more
quickly.
m
Warning – Health risk!
When defrosting food from animal sources, you must
remove the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It
must never come into contact with other food. Germs
could be transferred.
Slide the glass dish/grill tray under the food and into
the appliance. Pour away the liquid that collects in the
dish or tray as the meat and poultry defrosts. Then clean
the sink and rinse with plenty of water. Clean the glass
dish/grill tray in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher.
After defrosting, operate the oven for 15
minutes at
180
°C in the "Hot air" (fan-oven) setting.
Preserving
▯
Cook food as soon as possible after purchase or
after it has been harvested. Prolonged storage
reduces the vitamin content and means that food is
on the verge of fermenting.
▯
Only use fruit and vegetables that are in good
condition.
▯
The oven is not suitable for preserving meat.
▯
Carefully check and clean the preserving jars,
rubber sealing rings, clips and springs.
▯
Place the preserving jars in a heat-resistant vessel
containing water. Make sure that they do not touch.
The water level must reach at least three quarters of
the way up to the top of the contents of the jars.
▯
Once the cooking time has elapsed, open the
cooking compartment door. Do not remove the
preserving jars from the cooking compartment until
they have completely cooled down.
▯
Store the preserves in a cool, dark and dry place,
e.g. in a pantry. Once the jars have been opened,
consume the contents quickly and store in the
refrigerator.

The defrosting time depends on the por-
tions. Small vegetables, such as peas and
beans, defrost more quickly than frozen
spinach blocks and cauliflower florets.
