Weigh
the food that you
are
about
to
defrost. Be certain
to
remove
any
metallic ties
or
wraps; then
place
the food in your
oven
and close the
oven
door.
Press AUTO DEFROST twice
to
select the POULTRY
defrosting
programme.
"dEF2"
appears
on
the
display
window.
Enter the
weight
of the frozen food that you
are
about
to
defrost.
Press MORE fourteen times
to enter 1.4
Kg.
Press START.
Your
oven
has four microwave defrost
settings:-
MEAT, POULTRY,
FISH and
BREAD;
each defrost
category
has
different power
settings. Repeated
presses of the AUTO DEFROST
key
will
select
a
different
setting.
The
temperature
and
density
of food
varies,
I would recommend that the food is checked before
cooking
commences.
Pay particular
attention
to
large joints
of
meat
and
chicken,
some
foods should
not
be
completely
thawed before
cooking.
For
example
fish cooks
so
quickly
that it is sometimes better
to
begin cooking
while still
slightly
frozen. The BREAD programme is suitable for
defrosting
small items such
as
rolls
or a
small loaf. These will
require
a
standing
time
to
allow the
centre to
thaw. In the
following example
I will show you how
to
defrost 1.4
kg
of frozen
poultry.
During defrosting
your
oven
will
"BEEP",
at
which
point
open the
oven
door,
turn
food
over
and
separate
to
ensure even
thawing.
Remove any
portions
that have thawed
or
shield them
to
help
slow down
thawing.
After
checking
close the
oven
door and press START
to
resume
defrosting.
Your
oven
will
not
stop/clear defrosting
(even
when the
beep
sounds)
unless the door
is
opened.
