Defrosting

Use the DEFROST oven function for defrosting.
1 Important: When defrosting always leave the oven lighting switched
on! Otherwise the defrosting time will increase.
Ovenware for Defrosting
Place food on a plate and put the plate on the shelf.
Use only grease-proof paper or foil to cover the food. Do not use a
plate or bowl, these will considerably increase the time taken to defrost
the food.
Shelf Positions
For defrosting, position the shelf on the 4th level from the top.
3 The suggested temperature of 30 °C for the DEFROST oven function
cannot be changed.
