OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1 Safety Instructions
The new appliance may only be assembled and connected by an
approved installer.
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
• Take care when plugging in electrical appliances near the appliance.
Mains cables must not be allowed to fall on hot rings and must not
be trapped under the hot oven door.
• Do not store inflammable substances in the oven. They could ignite
when the oven is switched on.
• Cleaning the appliance with a steam or high pressure cleaner is for-
bidden for safety reasons.
• If force is used, above all 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 cooking surface when preparing food in fat or oil (e.g. chips).
• If you use alcoholic ingredients in the oven, it is possible that an eas-
ily ignitable alcohol-air mixture might be produced. In this case open
the door carefully. When doing so, avoid having any hot embers,
sparks or open flames in the immediate vicinity. We recommend leav-
ing the cooked food to cool in the oven with the door shut for
approx. 10-15 minutes after switching off the oven.
• 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 our Customer Service
or your specialist dealer.
• 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
• Only use utensils with flat, smooth bases that are neither rough nor
burred. Otherwise permanent scratching may occur when the utensils
are slid.
• Do not place hot frying pans or saucepans on the cooking surface
frame and do not cover the cooking surface with protective foil.
• Do not place any pans or other items over the oven steam outlet in
the cooking surface frame.
• Do not place aluminium foil or plastic containers on the hot rings and
do not prepare food in aluminium foil or plastic containers on the hot
cooking surface.
• 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 dam-
aged.
• Do not sit on the open oven door/oven drawer.
• Do not store moist food in the oven.

Operating Instructions
Usage, Tables and Tips
Pans
The better the pan, the better the results.
• You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be thick
and as flat as possible.
• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with dam-
aged bases that are rough or burred. Permanent
scratching may occur when the pans are slid.
• When cold, pan bases are normally bowed
slightly inwards (concave). They should under
no circumstances be bowed outwards (convex).
Energy Saving Tips
You will save valuable energy if you observe the
following tips:
2
• Always place pans on the cooking zone before switching on.
• Soiled cooking zones and pan bases increase the electricity consump-
tion.
• If possible, always fit pans with a lid.
• Switch off the cooking zones before the end of
cooking to make use of the residual heat, e.g. to
keep food warm or for melting.
• The pan base and cooking zone should be the
same size.
When purchasing pans pay attention to the diam-
eter of the base. Manufacturers often state the
diameter of the top of the pan.
• Cooking times are reduced by up to 50% when a
pressure cooker is used.

Notes on the Baking Tables
In the tables you will find information on temperatures, cooking times
and shelf positions for a selection of dishes.
• Ranges are given for the temperature and cooking time since these
are dependent on the mixture, quantity and cake tin used.
• When using for the first time, we recommend setting the lower tem-
perature, and only if necessary, e.g. if increased browning is required
or the cooking time is too long, selecting a higher temperature.
• If you cannot find specific information for one of your own recipes,
use information on a similar recipe for guidance.
Switch off the oven 10-15 minutes before the end of the cooking time
to make use of the residual heat.

Operating Instructions
Roasting
Ovenware for Roasting
• Any heat-resistant dish is suitable for roasting.
• In the case of dishes with plastic handles, ensure that the handles are
heat-resistant.
• Large roasts can be roasted directly on the fat tray or on the shelf
with the fat tray underneath (e.g. turkey, goose, 3-4 chickens,
3-4 knuckles).
• We recommend roasting all lean types of meat in a casserole with a
lid (e.g. veal, pork or beef pot roasts, frozen meat). This way the meat
will remain juicier.
• You can roast all types of meat that should have a crispy exterior in a
casserole without a lid (e.g. pork, meat loaf, lamb, mutton, duck,
1-2 knuckles, 1-2 chickens, small poultry, sirloin, filet, game).
• Tip: If you use dishes for roasting (particularly for small amounts), the
oven will not get so dirty!
Shelf Positions
• Please see the following table for the shelf positions to be used.
Notes on the Roasting Tables
Information is given in the table on temperature settings, cooking
times and shelf positions for various types of meat. The cooking times
are only for guidance.
• We recommend roasting meat and fish in the oven from a weight of
1kg.
• The cooking time required is dependent on the type and quality of the meat.
• To stop juices that exude from the meat burning onto dishes, we
recommend adding a little liquid in the roasting dish.
• Turn the roast after approx. 2/3 of the cooking time.
Switch off the oven 10-15 minutes before the end of the cooking time
to make use of the residual heat.

Service
SERVICE
In the “What to do, if …” section a number of malfunctions are listed
that you can rectify yourself. In the event of a malfunction, look there
first.
Is it a technical malfunction?
Then please contact your customer service centre. (You will find
addresses and telephone numbers in the "Customer Service Centres"
list.)
Always take the time to prepare yourself for the call. By this means you
will make diagnosis of the problem easier and also make it easier to
decide if a customer service visit is necessary:
Please determine as accurately as
possible:
• How is the malfunction notice-
able ?
• Under what circumstances does
the malfunction occur?
Prior to the telephone call it is
imperative that you make a note of
the following appliance code num-
bers that are given on the rating
plate:
• PNC Code (9 digits),
• S-No Code (8 digits).
We recommend you to record the code numbers here so that you
always have them at hand:
PNC . . .
. . .
. . .
S-No . . . . . . . .
When will you be charged, also during the warranty period?
• when you could have rectified the malfunction with aid of the Table
of Malfunctions (see “What to do, if ...” section),
• if the customer service engineer has to make several calls because he
was not given important information prior to his visit, and therefore,
e.g., had to fetch replacement parts. You can avoid multiple calls if
you prepare yourself well for the telephone call, as described above.
