accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid
sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in
the oven for more than two hours.
1. Place the frozen food on a baking sheet.
2. VGSC models—Turn the selector to "Convection Bake" and set the
temperature to "OFF".
VGCC models—Set the oven temperature control knob to "OFF"
and turn on the convection fan switch.
WARNING
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to
remain in the oven for more than two hours.
