Auto Defrost

Your microwave appliance has 2 programs for defrosting; one for meat, fish and poultry, the other one for different types of bread and cake.

The food should ideally be frozen and stored flat and evenly arranged at a minimum temperature of -18°C. Food should be frozen in suitable portions and shapes, so that the food fits into the appliance for defrosting. All packaging material should be removed where possible. If it is difficult to remove the the packing, start defrosting at 1000W for 1-2 minutes. Place the food onto a plate to defrost.

With the meat/fish program put food on an upturned saucer, so the meat juices can drip off. Under no circumstance should this meat juice be re-used or come into contact with other foods. When thawing out with the auto-weight programs standing time is necessary, until the food is thawed out completely or can be processed further. Depending upon weight and type of the food up to 90 minutes may be required.
