Convection Defrost
Convection Defrost
Air is circulated by a motorized fan in the rear of the oven. The fan
accelerates natural defrosting of the food without heat. To avoid
sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to remain in
the oven for more than two hours.
1. Place the frozen food on a baking sheet.
2. Set the oven temperature control knob to “OFF” and turn on the
convection fan switch.
WARNING
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO NOT allow defrosted food to
remain in the oven for more than two hours.
