Defrosting
•
Select the “Defrosting” heating mode.
•
The defrosting time given is a rough value. The defrosting time depends on the size, weight and shape
of the frozen food. Always freeze your food flat or in single pieces, this shortens the defrosting time.
•
Take the food out of the packaging before defrosting.
•
Only defrost the amount that you will need to prepare.
•
Please observe: defrosted food might not keep and will deteriorate more quickly than fresh food.
Immediately prepare defrosted food and cook it thoroughly.
•
Poultry, fish and meat: Important! Always insert an unperforated cooking insert one level below the
food. Pour away the defrosting liquid of meat and poultry. Clean the sink afterwards and rinse with
plenty of water. Clean the cooking insert in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher.

Preserving
•
Cook the fruit or vegetables immediately after buying or picking. A prolonged storage will reduce the
vitamins and might lead to fermenting.
•
Only use good quality fruit and vegetables.
•
Check and clean the preserving jars, rubber seals and clamps.
•
Disinfect the clean jars in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 100°C / 100% moisture before using them for
preserving.
•
Open the oven door after the cooking time has elapsed. Leave the jars to cool down completely before
taking them out of the oven.
