IMPORTANT NOTES:

- In the Defrost by Weight function, the introduced
weight is that of the food alone, not including the dish.
- Use the Defrost by Weight function only for raw food.
- This function has better results if the food is at a
temperature of -18ºC and if the food is taken directly
from the freezer to the oven.
- If the food is at a higher temperature (either because
it isn't a 3 star freezer or because the food has been
out of the freezer for more than 20 minutes) the oven
calculated time will be more and there may be a risk of
fire. In these cases, select a weight, which is lower than
the real food weight.
- In the cases above and when the food is already
cooked and frozen, use the Defrost by Time function,
starting with short periods of time.
- When you use tin foil to protect the thinner parts of the
food, make sure that it doesn't touch the oven walls,
otherwise there may be damages.
- Turn the foods around the moment the microwave
beeps and starts to flash on the screen: "Turn". . . . Close
the door and press the START
