Safety instructions
The safety requirements oblige me to give the following instruc-
tions:
When installing cooking appliances into kitchen furniture the en-
closed installation instructions must be strictly adhered to.
- If my high quality ceramic oven roof breaks or cracks
appear, do not use my oven at all.
– My oven needs to be switched off and must be isolated
from the electrical supply. Contact AEG Service Depart-
ment as soon as possible.
– When you use me to prepare your food, my oven doors
and cooking plates become hot. Therefore keep small
children well away from me.
This especially applies when you are grilling or
pyrolytically cleaning my oven (where applicable).
- Overheated fat and cooking oil may ignite. Prepare foods re-
quiring fat or oil (chips) only under constant supervision.
- Do not use me to heat your room.
- Take care when using small electrical appliances near the
cooker Connection leads should not come ın contact with hot
hobs/cooking zones or get trapped in the hot oven door.
- Do not line my oven base with aluminium foil or place any other
cooking utensil on my base, as this will trap heat resulting in
damage to my enamel interior This invalidates my warranty.
- The vitreous enamel ın your oven is very durable. However vit-
reous enamel 15 adversely affected by fruit acids (rhubarb,
lemon, etc.) and tea which will discolour and dull the enamel.
The performance of the oven ıs not affected. To prevent spill-
age of the above coming in contact with the enamel, place the
cooking container on a baking sheet.
- Do not place the grill/meat pan on the cooking plate to
make gravy. The direct heat will weaken the pan base result-
ıng in warping and twisting of the pan when next used as a
meat or grill pan.
- | comply with radio interference suppression specifications EN
55014 (previously EEC Directive 82/499) and as appropriate
with EN 60555 relating to the Retroactive Effect of the Mains
Supply

My different cooking options
m Conventional electric cooking [=]
This method of cooking uniformly radiates heat from above
and below. You should however make sure that you only cook
on one level to ensure a uniform distribution of heat.
m Dual-circuit grill
To grill large quantities of food use my large grill area f(x). For
smaller quantities, e. g., 4 slices of toast, use my smaller grill
area |).
My different cooking options
m Conventional electric cooking (=|
This method of cooking uniformly radiates heat from above
and below. You should however make sure that you only cook
on one level to ensure a uniform distribution of heat.
m Hot air cooking
A fan ensures that hot air is continuously circulated around the
oven allowing you to cook, bake and roast at several levels sı-
multaneously. This cooking method also uses lower tempera-
tures. This system saves you time and ıs highly energy effi-
cient.
vvv
m Rotitherm roasting/grilling
This cooking method combines the fan with the grill element. It
replaces the rotisserie ın your oven and ıs an excellent method
of roasting/grilling meat and poultry on one level. It is also per-
fect for “au gratin” dishes.
m Grilling
The grill element ıs used to grill foods such as steaks, chops,
sausages, fish, etc.
m Dual-circuit grill İR (where featured)
To grill large quantities of food use my large grill area fF]. For
smaller quantities e. g., 4 slices of toast, use my smaller grill
area [m].

ESH4-1 4/00 GB/UK – FF1-1 12/89 GB/UK
My ovens feature shelf supports to slot in wire shelves or the meat
pan.
The cooking tables supplied recommend the shelf positions on
which my main oven will produce best results.
The roof of my secondary oven ıs fitted with a catalytic liner
which largely prevents my oven roof from becoming soiled.
The fat filter supplied protects my fan against soiling. It must al-
ways be in place when:
- lam used as a Hot Air oven (Aj and meat 15 cooked in uncov-
ered containers (i. e. do not insert when baking!);
- During Rotitherm roasting/grilling (Х) (on multi-function ovens
only).
How to insert my fat filter:
Hold the fat filter by the handle and insert the two tabs (see illus-
trations) into the slots ın the back panel of the oven thereby cover-
ing the fan opening. The fat filter must cover the opening com-
pletely.
Cleaning the fat filter
The fat filter should be cleaned after every use. How to clean the
filter, see “Cleaning the fat filter” ın this booklet.

Oven Interior Light
The lamp symbol | on any control knob indicates that the oven
can be illumınated.
Secondary oven
Decide whether you want to use my conventional oven or my grill.
Select the relevant symbol on my cooking method selector and
the temperature required.
Main oven
Decide which cooking method you want to use and select the ap-
propriate symbol on the cooking method selector, e. g., for
Hot Аг Then select the required temperature with the tempera-
ture control. The red thermostat light is-on for as long as the oven
is pre-heating. The thermostat light cycles on and off during oper-
ation, indicating heating periods.
When pre-heating my oven (see information in the relevant cook-
ıng charts) position food ın the oven after the red thermostat light
has gone out for the first time. To utilise the residual heat in the
oven switch the oven off 5-10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time by returning both the cooking method selector and
the temperature control to the off positions.

Cookmatic — Electronic Cooking Guide
The electronic cooking guide recommends the use of tempera-
tures for the major food categories and for the different cooking
methods available on the oven.
Cookmatic provides helpful instructions on the appliance
which cannot get lost.
After selecting a cooking method, e. g., hot air [A] and a tempera-
ture, e. g., 180 °C, the electronic cooking guide gives a visual ın-
dication as to what can be cooked on this setting. To accommo-
date personal preferences it may be necessary to increase or
decrease the recommended temperature.

Baking
m Bakeware
Cakes are baked either in cake tins or alternatively on baking
sheets, full width baking sheets are available from AEG Spare
Parts as an optional extra.
How bakeware affects browning:
1. Bakeware, which is dark in colour, has a non-stick coating
or is made from aluminium ts the best as heat is absorbed
and then transferred to the cake resulting in shorter cook-
ing times, lower energy and better browning.
2. Bakeware which ıs light in colour or is made of tin reflect
the heat resulting in longer cooking times and poorer
browning. It is advisable not to use such bakeware when
using conventional top and bottom heat.
Baking on one level
Using the conventional method you can only bake on one
level at any one time. The shallower the cake, the higher you
should place it ın my oven.
Baking times and temperatures
In many cases, it is not necessary to preheat me. The recom-
mended temperatures and times given in the enclosed chart
are guidelines only To suit personal taste it may be necessary
to make small adjustments.
Recommendations
l recommend hot air cooking for all types of baking. However,
you may prefer cooked cheesecakes, all types of sponges,
bread and rich fruit cakes cooked by the conventional meth-
od.
When you use my hot air cooking system | can cook on sever-
al levels simultaneously This saves time, 15 convenient and
energy efficient. | can also cook different cakes at the same
time for instance a Victoria Sandwich and a Bakewell Tart or a
Madeira Cake with a Dundee Cake. Simply make sure that the
cooking temperatures are roughly the same and that sufficient
space ıs left between the shelves to allow the air to circulate
freely.
If baking cakes with a high moisture content such as several
apple pies, it may be advisable to use only 2 shelves at the
same time to prevent too much steam forming in the
oven.

BHL3 11/89 GB/UK – BHL5-1 2/00 GB/UK
m Baking times and temperatures
When baking with hot air it is often unnecessary to pre-heat
my oven. For exceptions see enclosed baking charts.
If you use my oven for batch baking, choose cakes which re-
quire similar temperatures. Different cooking times can be
overcome by either placing cakes into the oven later or by re-
moving them earlier
The baking chart ıs provided as a quick reference to keep near
the oven.
When baking on more than one level the time given in the
cooking charts has to be extended by 10-20 minutes.
m Baking on one or more levels
You can bake on several levels simultaneously. Place cake tins
centrally on the wire shelves to ensure even cooking results. Full
width baking sheets and additional wire shelves are available as
optional extras - see section “Optional Extras” ın this booklet.

Rotitherm roasting/grilling
Where the attached cooking charts highlight shelf positions
and temperatures in bold my oven may give you the better re-
sult when using this cooking method. However you may wish
to experiment and decide for yourself which cooking method
gives the best result.
A note to Rotitherm roasting/grilling as this is a relatively new
method. of cooking meat and poultry although spit roasting
which Rotitherm ts replacing Is not so new. Rotitherm is very
much more convenient to use than a spit and once you have
tried it you will be delighted with the results.
m Recommendations
Wipe and weigh the meat. If stuffing is used, weigh the stuffed
joint to calculate the cooking time. Place the Joint in a suitable
roasting dish, season with salt and pepper and brush lean
joints with melted fat.
When cooking pies, place dish on a baking sheet to avoid
spillage on to the floor of the oven.
The times and temperatures given ın the roasting chart provide a
guide when cooking meat. Some adjustments may be necessary
depending on the type of meat to be cooked. Cooking times
have been given for meat which is at room temperature.
Prime cuts can be cooked at higher temperatures than those
which require a longer cooking time to tenderise the meat. A thick
joint will require longer to cook through than a thinner one.
A boned rolled joint will require a longer cooking time than one
with the bone left ın as bone is a conductor of heat.
A small joint will require longer cooking time per 450 g (1 Ib) than
a large one. Allow an extra 30 minutes cooking time for joints up
to and including 1.5 kg (3 Ib).
If the joint is cooked in foil the temperature has to be increased by
10 °C. To brown the joint, remove foil for the last 15 minutes or so
of the cooking time.
If cooking from frozen, place joint ın a covered container and ex-
tend the calculated cooking time by approximately one third. To
brown and crisp meat remove cover for the last 30 minutes of the
cooking period.
