Chaos defrost
This feature allows you to defrost minced meat, chops, chicken portions, meat joints and
bread. Tap Chaos defrost to select the correct defrost category and then enter in the weight
of the food in grams (see page 61).
Foods should be placed in a suitable dish, whole chickens and joints of meat should be on
an upturned saucer or on a microwave safe plate. Chops, chicken portions and slices of
bread should be placed in a single layer. It is not necessary to cover the foods.
The
CHAOS Theory
principle is used in auto weight defrost programs to give you a quick
and more even defrost. The CHAOS system uses a random sequence of pulsing
microwave energy which speeds up the defrosting process. During the program the oven
will beep to remind you to check the food. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU TURN AND STIR
THE FOOD FREQUENTLY AND SHIELD IF NECESSARY. On hearing the fi rst beep you
should TURN and SHIELD (if possible). On the second beep you should turn the food or
break it up.

Note:
1. Check foods during defrosting. Foods
vary in their defrosting speed.
2. It is not necessary to cover the food.
3. Always turn or stir the food especially
when the oven “beeps”. Shield if
necessary (see point 5).
4. Minced meat/chops/chicken portions
should be broken up or separated as
soon as possible and placed in a single
layer.
5. Shielding prevents food cooking. It is
essential when defrosting chickens and
joints of meat. The outside thaws out
fi rst, so protect wings/breast/fat with
smooth pieces of aluminium foil secured
with cocktail sticks.
6. Allow standing time so that the centre of
the food thaws out. (minimum 1 hour for
joints of meat and whole chickens)
