IMPORTANT NOTES:
- In the Defrost by Weight function, the weight of food to be entered does not include the container.
- The Defrost by Weight function should only be employed for raw food.
- This function provides the best results if the food is at a temperature of -18ºC and the food is taken
directly from the freezer to the oven.
- If the food is at a higher temperature (because it is not a three-star freezer or because the food has
been out of the freezer for more than twenty minutes), then the time calculated by the oven will be too
long and there may be risk of fire. In this situation, select a weight which is less than the real weight of
the food.
- In the previous cases, and in pre-cooked frozen food, use the Defrost by Time function beginning with
short times.
- When aluminium foil is employed to protect the thinnest parts of the food, care should be taken to
ensure that its does not come into contact with the oven walls in order to prevent any possible damage.
