Safety instructions
The safety requirements state that the foilowing information be
given:
When installing cooking appliances into kitchen furniture the en-
closed installation instructions must be strictly adhered to.
Introduction to microwaves
Microwaves — what are they?
Microwaves are a kind of electromagnetic energy. Ordinary day-
light and radio waves are two other examples. The wavelength is
the only difference between these three types of energy.
Radiowaves are transmitted into the atmosphere and can travel
long distances. As soon as they are received by a radio receiver
the energy is converted into sounds. Microwaves are only trans-
mitted inside the microwave oven,
When microwaves reach food the energy is converted into heat.
Microwaves are both positive and negative and have a magnet
type affect on the water molecules in the food. This causes the
water molecules to vibrate at a fantastically fast rate creating heat
which in tum heats and cooks the food
Golden rufes for safe use of your microwave oven
1. Always place the food in the oven before switching on.
2. Always keep your oven clean, especially around the door
seals. Use a solution of washing up liquid and hot water to
clean the door seals and their surfaces (including door
frame).
3. Do not damage:
| the door
m the door hinges
m the door seals and their surfaces
m the door frame (e. g. never jam anything between door
and frame)
If the door seals and/or the door sealing surfaces become
damaged, the oven must not be used until it has been repaired
by an AEG engineer or an AEG appointed service agent.
4, Use only suitable ovenware.
See recommendations on page 22.
5. When heating liquids, leave a meta! or heat resistant plastic
spoon in the liquid to prevent rapid boiling over or splashing of
the contents when the container is moved. If this instruction is
not complied with, serious scalding can occur.
6. Food with skin or peel, such as potatoes, tomatoes and sau-
sages should be pierced with a fork so that the steam can es-
cape and the skin or peel does not burst.
7. Make sure that when cocking or reheating food or when
reheating cook-chilled food that a temperature of 70°C is
reached within the food. This wil! be achieved when you follow
all the AEG cookery advice in conjunction with the food manu-
faciurer's instructions.
si902 1092 UK - SIB9O4 09193 UK

SIB9M4 09/93 UK ~ SIBS05 09/93 UK
8. When heating baby food in jars or bottles remove lids or tops
before heating. Always stir and shake the boitle or jar to make
sure that the heat is evenly distriouted. Before feeding the
food to the baby try it yourself for temperature.
9, Please note when using long cooking times or high cooking
settings the container will be heated by the food. Take care
and use oven gioves.
10.DO NOT use the microwave oven:
i@ for boiling eggs in their shells (they will “explode")
@ for heating large amounts of cooking oil (fondue, deep fry-
ing) or any beverages with a high alcoholic content (risk of
spontaneous combustion)
@ for reheating sealed bottles, jars, etc.
m for drying pets, textiles or paper
lm when the oven compartment is empty
11.Use your microwave oven only in accordance with these in-
structions and the recommendations. given in the tables. Do
nat overcook the food by leaving it for too long in the oven or
by cooking it at too high a power setting (particularly those
foods with a high sugar content). Certain areas of the food will
dry out, become burnt or can ignite.
Warning:
When using microwaves always use a wire shelf as supplied with
the oven to place microwave suitable and heat resistant contain-
ers such as oven glassware on it.
AEG electrical appliances are manufactured in compli-
ance with all relevant safety regulations. Do not use the
microwave oven if it develops a fault and is no longer in
good working order. in order to ensure the safety of your
appliance at all times, always have any necessary repairs,
especially to five parts, carried out only by electricians
who have been given special training by the manufacturer.
In the event of an electrical fault therefore, always call
your local AEG stockist or our AEG Service Department di-
rect. Repairs which have not been carried out properly can
be extremely hazardous. For the exception to this rule see
page 22.
m When you use the oven divider to work with a smaller oven,
the complete divider (base with heating element and top cov-
er) has to be plugged into the back panel of the oven.

For the
user
~ When you use the appliance to prepare your food, the
oven doors and cooking plates become hot. Therefore
keep small children well away from the appliance.
This especially applies when you are grilling or
pyrolytically cleaning the oven (where applicable).
Overheaied fat and cooking oil may ignite. Prepare foods re-
quiring fat or oil (chips) only under constant supervision.
— Do not use the appliance to heat your room.
Take care when using small electrical appliances near the
cooker. Connection leads should not come in contact with hat
hobs/cooking zones or get trapped in the hot oven door.
Do not line the oven base with aluminium foil or place any other
cooking utensil on the base, as this will trap heat resulting in
damage to the enamel interior. This invalidates the warranty.
The vitreous enamel in your oven is very durable. However vit-
teous enamel is adversely affected by fruit acids (rhubarb,
lemon, etc.) and tea which will discoloursand dull the enamel.
The performance of the oven is 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-
ing in warping and twisting of the pan when next used as a
meat or grill pan.
The appliance complies with radio interference suppression
specifications EN 55014 (previously EEC Directive 87/308)
and as appropriate with EN 60555 relating to the Retroactive
Effect of the Mains Supply.

Oven
Before using for the first time, refer to the section describing pre-
cleaning of the ovens and the safety instructions for the
user.
The secondary oven is 2 conventional one with top and bottom
heat and grit
The main oven is a multi-function oven which features conven-
tional cooking with top and bottom heat, hot air cooking, micro-
wave application and two grilling options. For further details con-
sult the relevant sections in this booklet.
The different cooking options
@ 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.
w Dual-circuit grill
To grill large quantities of food use the large grill area {f¥]. For
smaller quantities, e. g., 4 slices of toast, use the smaller grill
area [rr].
Cooking methods
@ 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.
@ Hot air cooking A
A fan ensures that hot air is continuously circulated around the
oven allowing you to cook, bake and roast at several levels si-
multaneously. This cooking method also uses lower tempera-
tures. This system saves you time and is highly energy effi-
cient.
oad
= Rotitherm roasting/grilling | A)
This cooking method combines the fan with the grill element. tt
replaces the rotisserie in your oven and is an excellent method
of roasting/grilling meat and poultry on one level. Itis also per-
fect for “au gratin” dishes.

@ Grilling
The grill element is used to grill foods such as steaks, chops,
sausages, fish, etc.
@ Pyrolytic seif-cleaning
During pyrolytic self-cleaning, the soilage from roasting, grili-
ing or baking is reduced to loose dust which you can easily
wipe out of the oven.
For safety reasons, the door is locked during the cleaning
cycle.

You can choose from 4 different power levels. Vegetables
and fish are well suited to microwave cooking. Microwaves
are also ideal for defrosting frozen foods.
The ovens feature shelf supports which are removable for clean-
ing.
The cocking tables supplied recommend the shelf positions on
which the main oven will produce best results.
The secondary oven operates on top and bottom heat and you
would use the bottom shelf position or the next one up for most of

How to insert:the fat filter:
Hold the fat filter by the handle and insert the two tabs (see illus-
trations) into the slots in the back panel of the oven thereby cover-
ing the fan opening.
The fat filter must cover the opening completely.
Cleaning the fat filter:
To clean the oven all oven controls must be set to the off

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] anda tempera-
ture, @. g., 180 °C, the electronic cooking guide gives a visual in-
dication as to what can be cooked on this setting. To accommo-
date personal preferences it may be necessary to increase or

Practical tips for using the microwave
The cooking time and power setting depend on the quantity and
density of the food to be cooked. If you follow the basic rule of
double the quantity - not quite double the time you cannot go far
wrong.
Food taken from the refrigerator or freezer have a lower starting
temperature and will require a tonger cooking time.
The charts supplied with your oven will give you details as to
power seitings and times to be used.
Standing time referred to in the charts means that you need to
leave the food to stand inside or outside the appliance for the heat
to equalise. Make sure you always allow food to stand as instruct-
ed.
When you use the microwave without any other combination, the
food must be placed on the third shelf position from the top.
Food which is roasted or coated in breadcrumbs or batter is best
cooked uncovered. Cover all other foods with a microwave suit-
able lid, plate or cling film to trap the moisture which will speed up
