Defrosting

The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This increases the speed of defrosting. However, please note that the temperature of the kitchen will influence the speed of defrosting.

This function is particularly suitable for defrosting delica- te food which could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream filled gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast products.

ΦHow to Use Defrosting

1)Switch the oven on by pressing button 1.

2)Press button 3 twice.

Hints and Tips

Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film to prevent drying out during defrosting.

ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAWING.

Frozen food should be placed in a single layer when ever possible and turned over half way through the defrosting process.

Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2 kg. (4 lb.) are suitable for defrosting in this way.

Refer to the following table for approximate defrosting times.
