JET START
This function is used for quick reheating of food with a high water content such as clear soups, coffee or
tea.
1.
Press the Start button.
This function automatically starts with maximum microwave power level and the cooking time set
to 30 seconds. Each additional press increases the time with 30 seconds. You may also alter the time by
pressing the +/- buttons to increase or decrease the time after the function has started.
MANUAL DEFROST
Follow the procedure for "cook & reheat with microwaves" and choose power level 160 W when
defrosting manually.
Check and inspect the food regularly. Experience will give you the times needed for various amounts.
•
Frozen food in plastic bags, plastic films or cardboard packages can be placed directly in the oven
as long as the package has no metal parts (e.g. metal twist ties)
•
The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow packets defrost more quickly than a
deep block.
•
Separate pieces as they begin to defrost. Individual slices defrost more easily.
•
Shield areas of food with small pieces of aluminum foil if they start to become warm (e.g. chicken
legs and wing tips).
•
Turn large joints halfway through the defrosting process.
•
Boiled food, stews, meat and sauces defrost better if stirred during defrosting time.
•
When defrosting it is better to under thaw the food slightly and allow the process to finish during
standing time.
•
Standing time after defrosting always improves the result since the temperature will then be evenly
distributed throughout the food.
