IMPORTANT NOTES:

-In the Defrost by Weight function, the introduced weight is that of the food alone, not including the dish.

-Use the Defrost by Weight function only for raw food.

-This function has better results if the food is at a temperature of –18°C and if the food is taken directly from the freezer to the oven.

-If the food is at a higher temperature (either because it isn’t a 3 star freezer or because the food has been out of the freezer for more than 20 minutes) the oven calculated time will be more and there may be a risk of fire. In these cases, select a weight which is lower than the real food weight.

-In the cases above and when the food is already cooked and frozen, use the Defrost by Time function, starting with short periods of time.

-When you use tin foil to protect the thinner parts of the food, make sure that it doesn’t touch the oven walls, otherwise there may be damages.
