Topics:

  • Can the Convection Steam Oven (CSO) defrost food?

  • How to defrost food with the touch control CSO

Answer:

This information is for Legacy Convection Steam Oven models with touch controls. For Legacy CSO models with a knob, refer to Legacy Defrost Food in a Convection Steam Oven (Knob Control).

The Steam Mode is great for defrosting frozen foods. Using a low steam temperature of 90°F, the Steam Mode provides the ideal way to defrost foods quickly, easily, and with better results than a microwave.

  • Use the Convection Steam Oven to defrost any food you would defrost in a microwave.

Both wire racks may be used, and the solid pan should be used to catch any drips from the foods as they defrost.

  1. Remove any packaging from food.
  2. Place the frozen foods on the wire racks set on position 2 and 3.
  3. Place the solid steam oven pan on rack position 1.
  4. Turn the oven to Steam Mode at 90°.
  5. Check foods after 15 minutes. Continue defrosting if necessary.
