Defrosting

General instructions for defrosting

1. When defrosting, use only dishes that are
appropriate for microwaves (china, glass,
suitable plastic).
2. The defrost function by weight and the
tables refer to the defrosting of raw food.
3. The defrosting time depends on the
quantity and thickness of the food. When
freezing food keep the defrosting process
in mind. Distribute the food evenly in the
container.
4. Distribute the food as best as possible
inside the oven. The thickest parts of fish
or chicken drumsticks should be turned
towards the outside. You can protect the
most delicate parts of food with pieces of
aluminum foil. Important: The aluminum
foil must not come into contact with the
oven cavity interior as this can cause
electrical arcing.
5. Thick portions of food should be turned
several times.
6. Distribute the frozen food as evenly as
possible since narrow and thin portions
defrost more quickly than the thicker and
broader parts.

room temperature they will be ready to
be served in a few minutes. With ultra-

serving.

do not forget to take off any metal twist-
tags. For containers that are used to keep
frozen food in the freezer and which can
also be used for heating and cooking, all
you need to do is take off the lid. For all
other cases you should put the food into
containers that are suitable for microwave
use.
12. The liquid
principally that from poultry should be
discarded. In no event should such liquids
be allowed to come into contact with other
foods.
13. Do not forget that by using the defrosting
function you need to allow for standing
time until the food is completely defrosted.
