DEFROST FEATURE

USES OF DEFROST FEATURE

This main oven function enables you to defrost most
foods faster than some conventional methods as the
oven fan circulates air around the food. It is
particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which
are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux,
cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes,
biscuits, scones etc.
It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry slowly
in the fridge. However, this process can be
accelerated by using the defrost function.

SELECTING DEFROST

l
Turn the multifunction selector to Defrost.
l
This function DOES NOT require a temperature
setting on the main oven temperature control.
Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed
or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc., can be
thawed in 1 - 2 hours.
A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in
approximately 5 hours. Remove the giblets as soon
as possible during the thawing process.
Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can be
thawed using the defrost function.
ALL JOINTS OF MEAT AND POULTRY MUST BE
THAWED THOROUGHLY BEFORE COOKING.
