MANUAL DEFROST
FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE for “Cook & Reheat with mi-
crowaves” and choose power level 160 W when de-
frosting manually.
CHECK AND INSPECT THE FOOD REGULARLY. Experien-
ce will give you the times needed for various
amounts.
TURN LARGE JOINTS halfway through the defrosting
process.
FROZEN FOOD IN PLASTIC BAGS, plastic films or card-
board 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 defros-
ting 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).
BOILED FOOD, STEWS AND MEAT 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 AL-
WAYS IMPROVES the result since the
temperature will then be even-
ly distributed throughout
the food.
