run for at least 2 hours on the higher settings.
Important!
In the event of accidental defrosting, for example the power has been off for longer than the time frame
recommended in the technical characteristics chart under “rising time”, the defrosted food must be consumed quickly
or cooked immediately and then re-frozen (after cooked).
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to be used, can be thawed in the freezer compartment or at room temperature,
depending on the time available for this operation.
Small pieces may even be cooked while still frozen directly from the freezer. In this case, cooking will take longer.
