as long as they have no metal parts (e.g., bands or closure rivets).
• Certain foods, such as greens, vegetables and fish, do not generally require defrosting before you
begin cooking them.
•Stewed foods and meats as well as meat sauces defrost better and quicker if they are stirred from
time to time, turned over or croken cup .
•While defrosting, meat and fish lose their liquid content. It is recommended, therefore, that you
defrost such items in a tray or basin.
• It is advisable to separate each individual piece of meat from its bag before putting it in the
freezer. This will help you save valuable time will preparing foods.
• Be careful about following the timings printed on frozen products, because they are guideline

The time needed for defrosting will vary in terms of the degree to which the food has been frozen.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (U.K. ONLY)
A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it
will incorporate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not
fit your socket, the plug should be cut off
from the mains lead, and an appropriate
plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut
off plug after removing the fuse: do not
insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the
house as this could cause a shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a
fuse, the circuit must be protected by a 15
Amp fuse.
If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse
cover must be re-fitted when changing the
fuse using a 13 Amp Asta approved fuse to
BS 1362. In the event of losing the fuse
cover, the plug must NOT be used until a
replacement fuse cover can be obtained
from your nearest electrical dealer. The
colour of the correct replacement fuse cover
is that as marked on the base of the plug.
B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug,
please follow the instructions provided
