Defrost Mode: The fan runs without heat to reduce the defrosting time of frozen foods. The time required to defrost the food will depend on the room temperature, the quantity and type of food. Always check food packaging for the defrosting instructions.
Fan Oven: This method of cooking uses the circular element while the heat is distributed by the fan. This results in a faster and more economical cooking process.
