Ovenware for Defrosting
•Place food on a plate and put the plate on the shelf.
•Only use grease-proof paper or foil for covering. Do not use plates or
bowls otherwise the defrosting time will increase considerably.
Shelf Positions
•For defrosting, position the shelf on the 3rd shelf position from the
bottom.
Notes on the Defrosting Table
The times quoted in the table are intended as a guide only, as the speed
of defrosting will depend on the kitchen temperature. For example, the
colder the room temperature, the longer the defrosting time.
