This function can be used on its own to

The following settings are recom
-

e.g. milk, cake etc.
80 W
for defrosting very delicate food, e.g.
cream, butter, gateau and cheese.
Defrosting:
^
Remove food from its packaging and
place it in a microwave-safe con
-
tainer.
^
Place the container in the middle of
the oven floor.
If defrosting a large quantity, e.g. 2 kg
of fish, you can also use the glass tray
as a container. Place the glass tray on
the oven floor.
Turn, stir or separate the food about
half-way through the defrosting time.
The automatic programme has an audi-
ble tone which sounds as a reminder.
After defrosting
Allow the food to stand at room temper-
ature long enough to allow the tempera-
ture to spread evenly throughout the
food.
For more detailed information on de-
frosting consult a good microwave
or microwave combi-oven cookbook.
