Defrosting - Miele H 4210 Operating And Installation Instructions

Defrosting

You can also use the oven for
defrosting.
To defrost select Fan plus Y with a
maximum temperature of 50 °C.
For defrosting meat and delicate foods,
use the lowest possible temperature
(30 °C).
Please note:
– Where possible remove the
packaging and put the food to be
defrosted on the universal tray or into
a suitable dish.
– When defrosting poultry, put it on the
rack over the universal tray to catch
the defrosted liquid so that the meat
is not lying in this liquid.
It is particularly important to observe
food hygiene rules when defrosting
poultry. Do not use the liquid from
the defrosted poultry. Pour it away,
and wash the tray, the sink and your
hands. Danger of salmonella
poisoning!
– Fish does not need to be fully
defrosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is sufficiently soft to
take herbs and seasoning.
