It is recommended, therefore, that you defrost suchitems 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 willhelp you save valuable time will preparing foods.• Be careful about following the cooking times printed on frozen products, because those times are not alwayscorrect. It is best to use defrosting times slightly less than those indicated. The time needed for defrosting willvary in terms of the degree to which the food has been frozen.6:006:000:002.3 HOW TO PROGRAMME AUTOMATIC DEFROSTING
