Miele H 4044 BM - Manual (Page 39)

The defrost function allows you to
defrost food at a consistent
temperature.
Room-temperature air is distributed
over the food by the fan on the rear wall
of the oven.
Shelf levels
^ Remove the frozen food item from the
packaging, and place it on the glass
tray or in a bowl.
^ Depending on the size of the food
item, select the 1 st or 2 nd runner from
the bottom.
The time it takes to defrost the food
depends on its type and weight. The
temperature at which it was deep
frozen will also make a difference.
Defrosting tips
– During the defrosting time turn, stir or
separate the food several times. As a
reminder a tone sounds and a
message is displayed.
– Remove frozen food items from the
packaging and place them in a dish.
– Meat and poultry should be fully
thawed before cooking. Do not use
the defrosting liquids.
– Fish does not need to be fully
defrosted before cooking. Defrost so
that the surface is soft enough to
absorb seasonings.
– Cook food immediately after
defrosting.
