Defrosting
You can defrost frozen food in your appliance.
Tips for defrosting food
¡ You can use the "microwave" mode to defrost
frozen fruit, vegetables, poultry, meat, fish or baked
goods.
¡ Remove frozen food from its packaging before you
defrost it.
¡ Use heat-resistant, microwave-safe cookware.
¡ The recommended settings are for freezer-temperat-
ure food (-18°C).
¡ Defrosting works best if you divide it into more than
one step. The steps are listed one after the other in
the recommended settings tables.
¡ Stir or turn the food 1-2times during defrosting.
Turn large items several times. Split the food into
smaller pieces as it defrosts.
Remove pieces that have already defrosted from the
cooking compartment.
¡ Once the food has defrosted, switch off the appli-
ance and leave the food in the appliance for another
10 to 30minutes to allow the temperature to equal-
ise.

ware can become very hot.
