A - Installation check and warnings
IMPORTANT:
Please ensure that the oven cavity, venting and wiring is as specified in the relevant section H of
this manual. It is important to the performance of the oven to allow sufficient air circulation
around the appliance.
All installation, adjustments and maintenance operations must be carried out by qualified
technicians in accordance with the enclosed instructions and current installation standards. The
manufacturer accepts no liability for faulty installation, setting, handling and use of the oven.
A licensed electrician must perform electrical work when installing or servicing the appliance. The supply
cable and fuse rating must be suitable for the appliance. You must never repair or replace any part of
the appliance unless specifically recommended in the operation manual. Refer to section I of this

NOTE: DO NOT use aluminum foil on the base of ovens
The use of foil on the base of the oven to avoid spillage and improve cleaning is not recommended. The
bottom element is concealed under the base of the oven liner (not exposed). Foil or dishes with
reflective qualities must never be placed on the base of the oven during cooking as the concentration of
direct and reflected heat will damage the enamel surface.
Damage resulting from such use is not covered under the provisions of the warranty.
Initial heat up
Some smoke and smell may be noticed during the initial heat up cycle. This should quickly dissipate.
If abnormal levels of smoke are observed (i.e.: it is not food that is burning), have the appliance
thoroughly checked.

4. If you hold the MODE button longer then 4 seconds the oven will return to the normal cooking mode.
NOTE:
On oven start up or possibly at other times, due to electricity supply deviations – the set
program may freeze on a function – if this occurs we recommend that, after checking other
solutions without success, it is recommended that power supply be disconnected to the
appliance for 5 minutes before reconnecting. This may have a result of clearing the frozen
position allowing you to reset the clock/timer for normal operation.
Cooling Fan
The Single and Double Ovens are provided with a cooling fan motor to reduce the heat around the oven.
The fan motor is controlled by a sensor, which will start when the oven is on and stop working when the
temperature is reduced accordingly.
This safeguards both the oven and the adjoining cupboards from the possibility of temperature damage.
Safety Thermostat
Your oven is fitted with an oven temperature sensor that will automatically shut down your oven for a
period if it is deemed to be overheating- this sensor is fitted to the rear wall of the oven, inside the outer
case – it will only activate in extreme circumstances and is provided as protection to the appliance and
the adjoining furnishings. If activated it will shut down the appliance for a short time and will
automatically reset allowing normal operations – you should consult your service technician if the
problem re-occurs.

Double Oven
PREHEATING
Preheating the oven is not essential, but you will achieve better results if you do. Some foods,
particularly cakes and pastry, are better cooked in a preheated oven. Other foods, for example
casseroles, cook just as well when cooked in a non-preheated oven but may need longer cooking times.
For faster preheating select pizza mode and the required temperature and once the oven has reached
the required level change to cooking mode/function for the task.
To preheat the oven:
1- Set the mode required for preheating.
2- Set the oven to the desired temperature
3- The oven has reached the set temperature when the pilot light above the thermostat turns off.

NOTE:
Any food or other cooking utensils placed in the oven during preheating will affect the preheating time.
The preheat time may also vary with installations.
WARNING
When using an alternative cooking mode for fast preheat, be sure to turn the cooking mode to your
required setting before placing food in the oven.
HINT:
To allow for heat loss while placing food into the oven, preheat the oven 10-20°C higher and then reduce
the temperature to your required cooking temperature.
Always preheat the oven when cooking multiple dishes at the same time.

STEAM CLEAN ASSIST
Traditionally, oven enamels have been porous. This creates a surface that, over time, collects
microscopic oil and grime deposits that build up within these pores and become nearly impossible to
remove.
Thanks to some of the latest technology, we have revolutionary new enamel which is much less porous
than predecessors and creates a surface that has glass-like characteristics.
Added to this breakthrough technology, we have incorporated a new component into the enamel that is
non-stick. The two together creates a surface that is brilliantly effective and easy to clean.
To assist with easy cleaning, AEG have developed a Steam Clean function. Not only is this
environmentally friendly, it is also less severe on the oven surfaces as no harsh chemicals are used. In
addition to this, the power consumption normally needed by a traditional Pyrolytic Oven have been
minimized to reduce unnecessary energy use. This new enamel is also acid resistant which ensures that
stains around the walls of the oven liner are minimized, and particularly if the new Steam Clean function
is used regularly.
If the following simple Steam Cleaning procedure is adopted regularly, your oven should remain in
original condition for many years.
To activate Steam Cleaning follow these simple steps:
After completion of cooking cycle, turn oven off and allow to cool. The oven must be cold before
commencing steam cleaning.
1. When oven is cold, activate the steam clean function as follows,
2. Add approximately ½ a liter (1 Pint) of clean water to an oven safe dish and place on the
lowest rack. Add a small amount of dishwashing liquid to water to help remove stubborn
stains.
3. Close the oven door and select the Steam function on the Mode selector.
4. Select Steam on the Temperature Selector
5. Run the oven in this mode for approximately 45 minutes (set timer if preferred to remind)
6. After 45 minutes of steaming, turn both the Steam Mode selection and Steam Temperature
selection off . DO NOT OPEN OVEN DOOR FOR 30 min. allowing oven to cool to a safe
temperature for you to access it.
7. If not already done, remove the oven shelves and fittings. You can also wash these either in
your dishawasher or by hand.
8. With a warm damp cloth, simply wipe out grease from inside the oven. You should apply a
small amount of dish washing liquid to this cloth for further efficiency. It will be noted that
most grime has congregated on the base of the oven and is easily wiped away.
NOTE: If stubborn stains remain after Steam Clean apply Ceramic Cooktop
Cleaner/Polish.

13
CONVENTIONAL OVEN
In this traditional mode, oven heat is provided from the top and under the oven compartment and is most
suitable when cooking on a single shelf. For best results, arrange the shelves so the top of the food is
near the centre of the oven.
If cooking on more than one shelf, always preheat the oven and position the pans to allow as much free
circulation of heat as possible.
Depending on the food, you may need to rearrange the tray position during cooking.
1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select Conventional Oven mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
HINT:
If water is used in your cooking (such as water placed in a baking dish) the water will evaporate in the
oven in the form of steam. The level of condensation will be reduced when cooking in fan oven mode
where excess moisture is circulated and evaporates during the cooking cycle.
NOTE:
Stand clear of the oven when opening the oven door as steam may escape rapidly
FAN FORCED CONVECTION – most commonly used function
In this mode the oven fan circulates heat from behind the fan cover to give a more even temperature
throughout the oven. The even heat provides similar cooking results for each portion of food. Although
temperatures for cooking foods in this type of oven are generally the same as required by a conventional
oven, when cooking foods that require lengthy cooking cycles a fan forced oven normally cooks more
quickly, saving time and energy.
Always place the food as near to the centre of the oven as possible. If cooking on more than one level,
arrange the pan positions to allow for free circulation of heat.
1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select FAN OVEN mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When the cooking is complete turn the oven off.
HINT:
Always preheat the oven when cooking on multiple shelves at the same time.
Depending on the food, you may need to rearrange the tray positions during cooking.
DEFROST
All foods may be defrosted using the Fan Forced Convection mode. It is important to note that
NO temperature (0 Degrees) is selected when using this function.
As a general guide, the defrosting time for meat is approximately 15-20 minutes per lb.

14
FAN ASSIST
This style of cooking provides traditional cooking heating from top and bottom elements with the
assistance of a circulation fan to ensure fast even results. This mode is most suitable for delicate
cooking such as cakes, pastries, gateaux, biscuits and yeast dough. Best results when thermostat is set
to 150-180 degrees – depending on recipe.
Depending on the food, you may need to rearrange the tray position during cooking.
5- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
6- Select Conventional Oven mode.
7- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
8- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
FULL GRILL & HALF GRILL
This mode of cooking uses direct heat from the top of the oven to cook foods to your requirements. Half
grill engages only the inner band of the top element and is suitable for smaller volumes and
consequently has a lower energy usage.
This method of grilling in the oven is recommended for short duration (5 minutes or less) grilling
only, which is ideal for toasting (see note below). Foods with higher fat content or foods, which
require more than 5 minutes grilling time, should be grilled using the FAN GRILL mode.
When in GRILL mode the oven door should be opened.
1- Commence grilling from a hot oven whenever possible.
2- Place food on grill rack and pan supplied.
3- Position the shelf to your preference.
4- Select GRILL mode and, turn to your desired heat setting.
5- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
NOTE:
The grill element is controlled by the oven thermostat. Once the temperature in the oven has reached
the selected temperature the element will switch off, and then on again, when more heat is required.
FAN GRILL
NOTE: Door must be closed in Fan Grill Mode
Fan grilling is a combination of direct heat and circulated hot air which gives the appearance and flavor
similar to rotisserie cooking which is ideal for single level roasts. Direct infrared heat from the grill
element is circulated by the fan to cook the food, which should be positioned as near to the centre of the
oven as possible.
For best cooking results, it is recommended that food be turned once only.
1- Oven door must be closed in Fan grill mode.
2- Place food on grill rack and pan supplied (ensure grill rack is inverted to the high position to
allow best circulation of air) as close to the centre of the oven as possible.

15
3- Select FAN GRILL mode.
4- Set the oven to the desired temperature. (see note below and refer to FAN GRILL temperature
guide).
5- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
NOTE:
Large grill pans or roasting dishes can restrict the circulation of air in the oven. To prevent moisture
condensing in the cooler lower sections of the oven, preheat the oven for approximately 10 minutes,
using CONVENTIONAL OVEN or HIGH BAKE modes, prior to fan grilling.
NOTE: The temperature setting in FAN GRILL mode must not exceed 200°C. The grill element
has a safety shutdown at approximately 200°C.

HIGH BAKE
The HIGH BAKE mode uses the oven fan to circulate air with heat from the concealed bottom element.
Quick and consistent heat is evenly distributed throughout the oven.
The results are quick, not unlike a microwave oven. With the circulation of heat, foods cooked with high
bake mode retain a crisp, dry texture on the outside especially pizza, pastry and other foods where you
want the base to be well cooked. HIGH BAKE is also excellent for re-heating.
1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select HIGH BAKE mode.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.

16
CLASSIC BAKE (bottom of double oven)
In this mode, oven heat is provided from the concealed bottom element. This is most suitable for cooking
food which requires a well cooked base or where minimal browning is required.
1- Adjust oven shelves to desired position/s.
2- Select CLASSIC BAKE.
3- Set the oven to the desired temperature.
4- When cooking is complete turn the oven off.
PIZZA
This function is also excellent as the fastest oven pre heat, engaging maximum power to heat the oven
to a selected temperature before selecting an appropriate function and temperature for a task.
In this position the fan and fan element together with the concealed bottom element are engaged
simultaneously. This is used for food that requires a concentration of cooking to the base, and allows
the top to gently cook at the same time.
F - Cleaning and Maintenance
NOTE:
Your AEG oven comes with a Steam Clean function, please refer to page 12 for further
instructions.
1. Cleaning and maintenance
Proper cleaning and care of your appliance is essential to maintain its appearance and durability.
NOTE:
People with sensitivity to cleaning chemicals must take the necessary precautions. It is recommended
that protective gloves be worn while cleaning the appliance. Routine cleaning of the appliance should
only be performed when the appliance is at room temperature.
Do not use any acid or caustic cleaners, abrasive powders or scourers on the interior or exterior
of the appliance. Substances or items with these properties may discolor or damage the finishes of
your appliance. If any abrasive, acidic or caustic substance or cleaning agent should come into contact
with the appliance, rinse off immediately with water, taking special care to avoid injury if surfaces are
hot.
When using the appliance, it may be soiled by food spills and spatters or foreign items such as plastics
accidentally coming into contact with warm or hot surfaces. Foods which contain acidic substances or
sugar can discolor or damage enamel finishes.
The enamel interior of the oven is a hard durable finish which is resistant to wear and discoloration.
However, to maintain the appearance and durability of the finish any spills must be wiped off as soon as

17
it is safe to do so. Once cool the affected area should be thoroughly cleaned and rinsed using non-
abrasive, mild cleaning detergents and water.
2. Care for stainless steel
No metal is indestructible and certain procedures should be followed to maintain the finish and durability
of stainless steel.
Never leave stainless steel items unwashed. The surface responds best to gentle cleaning methods,
scouring materials and harsh abrasives should not be used. Frequent washing with water (preferably
hot) is the recommended treatment, followed by rinsing with fresh clean water and wiping dry with a soft
cloth or paper towel.
A little soap or detergent may be added to the washing water but too much can produce a cloudy film
over the appliance. Use of steel wool is not recommended but stainless steel wool (a fine mesh pad) is
an excellent cleaning aid. Oil or grease in the washing water can leave a rainbow film when it dries. It
can easily be removed by simply using polishing and cleaning methods described previously.
Thoroughly rinsing with clean water is the real secret and it a surprise how easily stainless steel can be
kept sparkling clean by using the above simple method.
Never leave stainless steel to dry by itself.
3. Only place cookware on oven shelves.
Other surfaces such as trims are not totally resistant to hard materials or direct heat and may be
permanently damaged by such use.
Recommended cleaners
Mild detergents and warm water together with a clean, soft, non-abrasive cloth achieve good results for
normal cleaning. Diluted washes with ammonia and water should rinse away any adhesive residue or
gummy deposits on the appliance surfaces. Eucalyptus oil (small amounts) is also good for removing
adhesive residue. Alcohol based products (eg: methylated spirit, etc.) are not recommended. Brand
name cream cleansers and concentrates, without abrasive qualities, can be used in small amounts to
break down greasy deposits and dirt. After cleaning make sure cleaned surfaces are thoroughly rinsed
to prevent any risk of baked on cleaner residues and wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.
If using commercial oven cleaners, choose only non-caustic cleaners and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. (Avoid contact with elements, rubber door seals and exterior surfaces.)
NOTE:
When cleaning stainless steel surfaces AEG recommend 3M brand or Advance stainless steel cleaner.
Other reputable brand cleaners specifically formulated for cleaning stainless steel may also be
acceptable. Do not use steel soap pads or abrasive scourers of any kind. The abrasive qualities of these
pads will ruin the even brushed finish of the stainless steel and any residual metal fibers may corrode
causing a rusty/dull appearance. Metal polishes with abrasive qualities are also not recommended.
WARNING:
Do not use any acid or caustic cleansers or abrasive powders or scourers on the interior or
exterior of the appliance.

Routine cleaning
Ensure all controls are in the off position and the appliance is cool before cleaning. When wiping
stainless steel surfaces with a brushed finish, wipe in the same directions as the brushing.
To clean the oven interior, fully open or remove the door/s (top opening type, see opposite page) for
better access while cleaning. The shelves and shelf guides can be lifted out for cleaning by removing the
relevant thumb screws. The shelves and shelf guides can be washed manually but are also dishwasher
safe.
After cleaning make sure all surfaces are thoroughly rinsed and wiped dry with a clean, soft cloth.
Drop Down Grilling Element
The removal of a single screw at the front of the upper grill element allows the grill to drop down to
facilitate the cleaning of the oven ceiling. On completion of cleaning, simply replace the grill element and
secure with the screw.
To avoid smoking, use a clean, damp cloth to regularly clean oil and fat splatters from
the exposed drop down grilling element.
The fan cover can be lifted out for cleaning separately by removing the retaining screws. The fan blade
can also be removed for cleaning if necessary.
NOTE: that the fan blade nut has a left-handed thread.
Removing oven door (pull down door models only)
The oven door can be easily removed for better access while cleaning. To remove the oven door:
1. Open the door fully and fit the supplied pin in the hole.
2. Raise the door slightly, holding the sides of the door about half way up. Make sure the pin
stays in the hole the whole time. Lift the door gently. This should disconnect the hinges
from the oven frame.
3. Remove the door by continuing to raise it while pulling the door away from the oven. When
handling the door be careful not to dislodge the pin off the hole. If the pin does dislodge, the
hinge will have to be closed by hand and the pin re-fitted onto the hole before re-fitting into
the oven.

19
To re-fit the oven door:
i. Holding the door at an angle to the oven, slide the hinges into the oven frame, making sure
that on each side the top curved arm fits into the top slot and the lower arm fits into the
bottom slot.
ii. Make sure the hinges are pushed as far as they will go and the lower arm engages into the
plate mounted in the oven frame.
iii. Open the door fully and ensure the pin fully disengages from the hole. The door can now be
opened and as normal.
How to Rotate Doors in the Double and Single Oven
NOTE: Side Opening Only
This should only be done by a qualified person or installer. We recommend that it be a two person task
to ensure support of the heavy door apparatus during changeover. Damage done to the appliance
during a door rotation may effect the warranty provision for the appliance.
Stage1: REMOVE THE BOTTOM DOOR FOR DOUBLE OVEN OR THE MAIN DOOR FOR
SINGLE OVEN
a) Remove the screws fixing the hinge to the oven front frame, being careful to support the
door, then remove the door and place in a safe place
b) Remove the door catch by removing the two screws top and bottom of the door latch on
the opposite side of the oven front frame to the hinges
c) Remove the screws fitted in the thread holes in the oven front frame to allow the re-
positioning of the door hinge to the opposite side
Stage 2: (FOR DOUBLE OVENS ONLY) REMOVE THE TOP DOOR AS PER STAGE 1 ABOVE AND
LEAVE IN POSITION THE FITTED MIDDLE SPACER
4. Remove the screws fixing the bracket of the middle spacer profile
5. Remove the screws fixing the hinge of the top door
6. Remove the door with the middle profile fixed to the hinge, rotate 180° place in a safe place
ready for re-affixing
Stage 3: FITTING THE DOORS – FOR DOUBLE OVENS AND SINGLE OVENS

20
7. For Double Oven re-fit the bottom door first by fixing the hinges with their screws; fix also
the bracket of the middle spacer profile at the same time
8. Re-fit the top door after having rotated it by 180°
9. Re-fit the two door catches in the appropriate oven front frame position – minor adjustment
available later to ensure accurate receipt of door striker pin
10. Re-fit the remaining screws in the thread holes in the oven front frame
The changeover is complete – please check that all screws are fully tightened and that the striker
pin is accurately received by the re-located door latch.
