Defrost
► When cooking in grill or combination mode, you may need to turn the food after half the
cooking time has elapsed to ensure it is evenly cooked.
► With some menus, the device stops after half of the cooking time has
elapsed, so that you can stir the food, so it will be evenly cooked. After
selecting the temperature, press the button Start /Quick start.

You can gently defrost frozen food with the help of the "Automatic defrost"
(09) menu. To set the defrost time, proceed as follows:
Selecting the menu
Turn the control dial Time/Menu counter-clockwise to select the programme
"Automatic defrost" (09).
Activating input mode
Select input mode by pressing the button Time/Weight twice.
Setting the defrost time
Set the new defrosting time by turning the Time/Menu control dial until the
defrosting time you require is displayed.
Starting automatic defrost
After setting the defrost time, press the button Start /Quick start, to start
automatic defrosting.
► Stop the oven occasionally to remove the unthawed frozen food or to separate it. If the
frozen food has not been defrosted at the end of the estimated defrosting time, proceed
as follows:
► Programme the oven in 1 minute increments, until the frozen food is completely
defrosted.
► When using plastic containers out of the deep-freeze, the defrosting process should
only last long enough to be able to remove the frozen food out of the container, after
which it can be placed into a microwave-resistant container.
