DEFROSTING

This main oven function enables you to defrost most foods without heat faster than some conventional methods as the oven fan circulates air around the food. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones etc.

USING DEFROST FEATURE

1. Turn the main oven temperature control to the defrost setting.

THINGS TO NOTE

The oven indicator neon may glow and turn on and off when defrosting.

The oven fan and oven light will come on.

The cooling fan does not operate.

HINTS AND TIPS

Place the frozen food in a single layer where possible and turn it over half way through the

ldefrosting process.

The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by room temperature. On warm days defrosting

lwill be faster than on cooler days.

It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry slowly in the fridge. However, this process can be accelerated by using the defrost function. Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks

letc., can be thawed in 1 - 2 hours.

A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in approximately 5 hours. Remove the giblets as soon as possible during the thawing process.
