Defrosting

The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the
air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This
increases the speed of defrosting. However, please
note that the temperature of the kitchen will influence
the speed of defrosting.
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.
How to Use Defrosting
1. Turn the oven function control knob to
2. Ensure the thermostat control knob is in the OFF
position.
