Only experience will enable you to determine the
proper settings for your personal cooking needs. The
temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be
necessary to increase or decrease the temperature
to suit your individual requirements.

The effects of dishes on cooking results

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity,
colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat
to the food inside them:
A

Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and

bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and underneath
browning.
B

Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium,

aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured
exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking
and underneath browning.

Defrosting 

The defrosting function allows you to defrost frozen
foods. The oven fan operates without heat and
circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the
oven. This increases the rate at which defrosting
takes place.
This function is particularly suitable for delicate food
which could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream filled
gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast
products.

HINTS AND TIPS

• Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film

to prevent drying out during defrosting.

• Small or thin pieces of fish fillet or peeled prawns,

mince, liver and thin chops will defrost in 1-2
hours. Ensure that they are cooked or refrigerated
immediately after defrosting to maintain good food
hygiene.

• Place the food to be defrosted in a single layer and

turn over half way through the defrosting process,
where possible.

• Joints of meat or poultry MUST BE THAWED

THOROUGHLY BEFORE COOKING. A 1.5 kg/3lb
oven-ready chicken will thaw in approximately 5
hours. The giblets must be removed as soon as
possible during the thawing process.

• Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2kg/4lb in

weight are suitable for defrosting in this way.
ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY
AFTER THAWING.

• Take care to follow the basic rules for hygiene

when handling fresh, frozen, raw and cooked foods.

HINTS AND TIPS

• Place the frozen food a single layer where

possible, and turn it over half way through the
defrosting process.

• The actual speed of defrosting is influenced by

room temperature. On warm days defrosting will
be faster than on cooler days.

• DO NOT leave food at room temperature once it is

defrosted. Cook raw food immediately or store
cooked food in the fridge.

• Care must always be taken when handling foods

in the home. Always follow the basic rules of food
hygiene to prevent bacterial growth and cross
contamination when defrosting, preparing,
cooking, cooling and freezing foods.
