You can operate the oven fan without heat, making
the air circulate inside the oven at room temperature.
This increases the speed of defrosting. However,
please note that the temperature of the kitchen will
influence the speed of defrosting.
This function is particularly suitable for defrosting
delicate food which could be damaged by heat, e.g.
cream filled gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and
other yeast products.

when ever possible and turned over half way
through the defrosting process.
