Defrosting

To defrost food, use the "Defrost" heating function.
The defrosting times specified are intended as a
guide only. The defrosting time depends on the
size, weight and shape of the frozen food. This
reduces the defrosting time.
Slide the wire rack with the frozen food into the
second rack level (into the third rack level if there
are five rack levels). Slide the glass dish/grill tray
underneath to catch any liquid that drips down as
the food defrosts.
Remove the food from the packaging before
defrosting.
Do not defrost more food than you intend to eat on
this occasion.
Remember: Once defrosted, food may not keep for
as long and spoils faster than fresh food. Prepare
defrosted food immediately and cook it thoroughly.

When dividing up the mixture, make sure
that the portions are spread as thinly as pos-
sible so that the mixture dries out well.
After half the defrosting time has elapsed, turn the
meat or fish. Break up frozen clumps of food
comprising many pieces, e.g. berries and pieces of
meat. Fish does not need to be fully defrosted; it is
sufficient to defrost it until the surface is soft
enough for seasoning/spices to stick.
The oven is not suitable for defrosting whole
chickens or joints of meat as this takes a very long
time. Steam ovens and combination steam ovens
can be used to defrost this kind of food much more
quickly.

Warning – Health risk!
When defrosting food from animal sources, you must
remove the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It
must never come into contact with other food. Germs
could be transferred.
