CHAPTER 2 - USING THE CONTROLS AND SETTING THE FUNCTIONS
2.2 SETTING THE MICRO FUNCTION
• If you open the door to check progress of defrosting, microwave emission stops and the remaining time
flashes on the display. To continue defrosting, close the door again and press the START/+1 min button
(10). The oven continues the countdown from where it was interrupted.
•To reset the time, proceed as follows:
- if the door is open, press the STOP/CLEAR button (9) once;
- if the oven is operating, press the STOP/CLEAR button (9) twice;
- if the oven is off and the door is closed, press the STOP/CLEAR button (9) once.
USING THE MICRO FUNCTION TO DEFROST
•Frozen foods in plastic bags, film, or oven ready containers can be placed directly in the oven. Check first
that there are no metal objects like staples or ties.
• Certain foods, like vegetables and fish, do not need to be fully defrosted before cooking.
• Foods in meat and other sauces defrost quicker and more evenly if they are stirred, turned and/or
separated occasionally.
• During defrosting, meat, fish and fruit lose liquid. Always place these foods in a bowl to defrost.
•You are recommended to divide meat and place individual pieces in separate bags when freezing.
This will save you valuable time during preparation.
• Always use caution when following the times given on frozen food packs as they are not always correct.
You are recommended to use slightly shorter defrosting times than those given. Defrosting time depends on
the degree of freezing.
