Joints of meat up to 2kg/4½lb in weight can
be thawed using the defrost function.
All joints of meat and poultry must be thawed
thoroughly before cooking.
DO NOT leave food at room temperature
once it is defrosted. Cook raw food
immediately or store cooked food in the
fridge.
Care must always be taken when handling
foods in the home. Always follow the basic
rules of food hygiene to prevent bacterial
growth and cross contamination when
defrosting, preparing, cooking cooling and
freezing foods. This is particularly important if
the main fan oven is in use or is warm, as the
temperature in the Convenience oven will be
higher than room temperature.
