As you press START, time

selected is reduced of 1 minute.

The oven will start the count-

ously set).

• If the defrosting time is not set, (skipping points 2 and 3) the display will show the countdown starting

from the default duration of

Put the frozen food directly on the WIRE RACK (I) inserted in slot 2. Put the SHALLOW PAN (H) in slot 3 in
order to catch the water dropping from the load during the defrosting process (see page 6).
Portions and pieces of raw meat, poultry and fish, frozen soups, pastry, fruit or leftovers will thaw more
quickly on this setting than on a counter or in the refrigerator.
Thaw only pieces or portions small enough to thaw in an hour or less and do not let food come to room
temperature.
Thawed food held too long or at a warm temperature can cause serious illenss.
Large amounts of food should be defrosted in a refrigerator.

(18) buttons. Keep the button

pressed for more than 2 sec-

onds to quickly scroll the time
