Please observe this instruction, otherwise the warranty will not cover any damage that may occur. The safety features of AEG electrical appliances comply with accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, we also consider it our obligation as a manufacturer to make you aware of the following safety information. General Safety · When using other electrical appliances ensure the cable does not come into contact with the hot surfaces of the oven. · Do not store flammable substances in the oven. They could ignite when the oven is switched on. · For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam or high pressure cleaner. · If force is used, especially on the edges of the front pane of glass, the glass may break. · When cooking, roasting and grilling the oven door will become hot. Therefore always keep small children away from the door. · Overheated fat and oil can catch fire quickly. Please always stay close to the appliance when preparing food in fat or oil (e.g. chips). · If you use alcoholic ingredients in the oven, it is possible that an easily ignitable alcohol-air mixture might be produced. In this case open the door very carefully. When doing so, avoid having any hot embers, sparks or open flames in the immediate vicinity. · Repairs to the appliance may only be performed by qualified service engineers. Improper repairs can give rise to significant hazards. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact your local AEG Service Force Centre. · In the case of the appliance malfunctioning: remove the fuses or switch off the circuit breaker. 5 Operating Instructions Intended Use · This appliance must not be used for purposes other than that intended, it must only be used for the cooking, roasting and baking of food in the home. · Only use the appliance to prepare food. · Do not use the oven to heat the room. In this way you avoid damaging your appliance · Do not line your oven with aluminium foil and do not place a baking sheet or dish on the oven floor, otherwise the oven enamel will be damaged by the resulting build up of heat. · Clean the appliance after each use. Spills are then easier to clean up and do not become burnt onto the surface. · Any drops of fruit juice that fall from the baking sheet will leave spots that cannot be removed. Use the universal sheet for very moist cakes. · Never pour water directly into the hot oven. The enamel may be damaged. · Do not sit on the open oven door. · Do not store moist food in the oven. 6 Operating Instructions Eco-Insulation In the factory the oven is fitted with eco-insulation. This insulation has been tested for pollutants by independent test institutes and categorised as harmless 2 Disposal Disposing of the packaging materials All materials used can be fully recycled. The plastics are marked as follows: · >PE< for polyethylene, e.g. as used for the outer wrapping and the bags inside. · >PS< for polystyrene foam, e.g. as used for the packing pieces, completely free of CFCs. The cardboard is made from 80% recycled paper. Disposal of old appliances All old appliances must be correctly disposed of for environmental reasons. 1 2 Warning! When disposing of an old appliance, make it unusable by cutting off the cable. Remove any door catches to prevent small children being trapped inside. Information on disposal · The appliance must not be disposed of in the household rubbish. · You can obtain information about collection dates or public tips from your local refuse department or council. 7 Operating Instructions Appliance structure Control panel Oven Function Selector and Function Display Retractable rotary knob, used for selecting the required oven function.

Temperature Pilot Light The temperature pilot light illuminates while the oven is heating up and extinguishes when the selected temperature is reached. It then cycles on and off during cooking to show that the temperature is being maintained. 8 Operating Instructions Oven Features Shelf Positions There are side rails on both sides of the oven, each of these has 6 shelf positions. Please note that the shelf positions are counted from top to bottom. Anti-Tip Device All slide-in parts are fitted with an anti-tip device to prevent them being unintentionally pulled all the way out. When inserting slide-in parts, the anti-tip device must be at the rear. Fat Filter The fat filter supplied with your appliance protects the fan in the rear wall of the oven from soiling. Always use the filter when roasting uncovered food or using hot air or Rotitherm. 9 Operating Instructions Fan The fan switches on automatically as soon as the oven is put into operation. The fan continues to run after the oven has been switched off to cool the appliance; it switches off automatically.
