e.g.The lower the micro power setting, the more evenly the food cooks, although it will take a little longer. To select the correct power level for cooking different foods, refer to the chart below.

NOTE: After using the oven, the fan may rotate to cool the electric components and “COOL” appears in the display window. If you cook using microwave, “COOL” will appear after micro cooking over 3 minutes. This is perfectly normal, and you can take out the food from the oven while the fan operates.

To Defrost

To Defrost using Turbo Defrost

This feature allows you to defrost meat, poultry and seafood automatically by just setting the weight of the food.

1. Set Weight
   The shape and size of the food will determine the maximum weight the oven can accommodate. The recommended maximum weight of food depends on the oven cavity size. Weight must be programmed in kilograms and tenths of a kilogram (0.1 kg ~ 3.0 kg). For best results, the minimun recommended weight is 0.2 kg.
   
2. Press
   Defrost time appears in the Display Window and begins to count down.
   NOTE: The oven will beep once or twice during the total defrosting time. This indicates that food should be turned, broken apart or removed. After attending to food, close door and press Start to resume defrosting.

Defrosting Tips and Techniques

Preparation for Freezing:

1. Heavy-duty plastic wraps, bags and freezer wrap are suitable.
2. Freeze meats, poultry and fish in packages with only 1 or 2 layers of food. To aid in separating layers, place two pieces of wax paper between them.
3. REMOVE ALL AIR and seal securely.
4. LABEL package with type and cut of meat, date and weight.
5. Defrosting times given in the charts are for thoroughly frozen foods (i.e. at least 24 hours in freezer maintained at -18°C or lower).

Defrosting Technique:

1. Remove from wrapper and set on a defrosting rack in a dish on Glass Tray.
2. On Turbo Defrost, the oven will beep during the defrosting time. At “beep”, turn over all meat, poultry, fish and shellfish. Break apart stewing meat, chicken pieces and minced meat. Separate chops and hamburger patties.Shield thin ends of roasts, poultry legs and wings, fat or bones with foil.
3. Throughout the defrosting time, remove any defrosted portions of mince or cubed meat, etc.
4. After defrosting, large roasts may still be icy in the centre. Let stand, 15 to 30 minutes, in refrigerator to complete defrosting.
