At the end of the defrosting time, the programme will automatically stop. The cooling fan and oven light will
still be on until the turntable has returned to its original position.
When the oven has switched off completely, 3 soft audible bell sounds will be heard and the cooking symbol
will flash. At this stage, it is possible to enter a further programme. However, if there is no action taken, after
approximately 1 minute, 2 further soft sounds will be heard and the window display will revert to the time of day.
Defrosting Tips
1. It is better to underestimate defrosting time if you
are unsure. Food will continue to defrost during
the standing time.
2. Separate food as soon as possible.
3. Turn large items, e.g. joints, halfway through
the defrosting time, or at pause.
4. Remove any thawed food as soon as possible.
5. Remove or open any packaging before defrosting.

food. The oven stops approximately one-third of the
way through the defrost period and 2 soft audible
bell sounds are emitted. If you do not open the door
at the pause, the oven restarts after about 2
minutes and commences the remaining defrost
period. To cancel the pause period, simply touch
Start and the programme will continue.

6. Place food in a larger container than that which
it was frozen in, this will allow for easy stirring.
7. Begin thawing poultry, breast side down and turn
over halfway through defrosting time or at
pause. Delicate areas such as wing tips can be
shielded with small pieces of smooth foil.
8. Standing time is very important, particularly for
large, dense foods which cannot be stirred to
ensure that the centre is completely defrosted
before cooking.
