Electrical safety
•This appliance must be only con-
nected by a registered electrician.
•In the event of a fault or damage to
the appliance: Take the fuses out or
switch off.
•Repairs to the appliance must only
be carried out by qualified service
engineers. Considerable danger
may result from improper repairs. If
repairs become necessary, please
contact our Customer Services or
your dealer.
Child Safety
•Never leave children unsupervised
when the appliance is in use.
Safety whilst Using
•This appliance is intended to be
used for cooking, roasting and bak-
ing food in the home.
•Take care when connecting electric
appliances to sockets nearby. Do
not allow connecting leads to come
into contact with or to catch beneath
the hot oven door.
•Warning: Risk of burns! The interi-
or of the oven becomes hot during
use.
•Using ingredients containing alcohol
in the oven may create an alcohol-air
mixture that is easily ignited. In this
case, open the door carefully. Do not
have embers, sparks or naked
flames in the vicinity when opening
the door.
Information on acrylamides
According to the latest scientific
knowledge, intensive browning of
food, especially in products con-
taining starch, can constitute a
health risk due to acrylamides.
Therefore we recommend cooking
at the lowest possible temperatures
and not browning foods too much.

6electrolux safety instructions
How to avoid damage to the
appliance
•Do not line the oven with aluminium
foil and do not place baking trays,
pots, etc. on the oven floor, as the
heat that builds up will damage the
oven enamel.
•Fruit juices dripping from the baking
tray will leave stains, which you will
not be able to remove. For very moist
cakes, use a deep tray.
•Do not put any strain on the oven
door when open.
•Never pour water directly into the
oven when it is hot. This could cause
damage to or discoloration of the
enamel.
•Rough handling, especially around
the edges of the front panel, can
cause the glass to break.
•Do not store any flammable materi-
als inside the oven. These could ig-
nite when the oven is switched on.
•Do not store any moist foods inside
the oven. This could damage the
oven enamel.
•After switching off the cooling fan, do
not keep uncovered dishes in the ov-
en. Moisture may condense in the
oven interior or on the glass doors
and may get into the units.
Note on enamel coating
Changes in the colour of the oven’s
enamel coating as a result of use do not
affect the appliance’s suitability for nor-
mal and correct use. They therefore do
not constitute a defect in the sense of
the warranty law.

Inserting the Oven Shelf, Baking
Tray and Roasting Pan
Shelf runner safety and anti-tip de-
vice
As a shelf runner safety device, all
insertable components have a small
curved indentation at the bottom on
the right and left-hand edge.
Always insert insertable compo-
nents so that this indentation is at
the back of the oven interior. This in-
dentation is also important for pre-
venting the insertable components
from tipping.
Inserting the baking tray or roasting
pan
Push the baking tray or roasting pan be-
tween the guide bars of the selected
oven level.

14 electrolux using the oven
Inserting the oven shelf:

The high rim around the oven shelf
is an additional device to prevent
cookware from slipping.
Inserting the oven shelf and roast-
ing pan together

Baking tins
For Conventional dark metal and
non-stick tins are suitable.
Oven levels
Baking with Conventional is only pos-
sible on one level.
1 baking tray:
e.g. oven level 3
1 cake tin:
e.g. oven level 1

16 electrolux uses, tables and tips
General Instructions
•Insert the tray with the bevel at the
front.
•With Conventional you can also
bake with two tins next to one anoth-
er on the oven shelf at the same
time. This does not significantly in-
crease the baking time.
When frozen foods are used the
trays inserted may distort during
cooking. This is due to the large dif-
ference in temperature between the
freezing temperature and the tem-
perature in the oven. Once the trays
have cooled the distortion will dis-
appear again.
How to use the Baking Tables
The tables give the required tempera-
ture settings, baking times and oven
shelf levels for a selection of typical dish-
es.
•Temperatures and baking times are
for guidance only, as these will de-
pend on the consistency of the pas-
try, mixture or dough and the number
and the type of baking tin.
•We recommend using the lower
temperature the first time and then if
necessary, for example, if a deeper
browning is required, or baking time
is too long, selecting a higher tem-
perature.
•If you cannot find the settings for a
particular recipe, look for the one
that is most similar.
•Your new oven may bake or roast dif-
ferently to your previous appliance.
So adapt your normal settings (tem-
perature, cooking times) and oven
shelf levels to the recommendations
in the following tables.
With longer baking times, the oven
can be switched off about
10 minutes before the end of baking
time, to make use of the residual
heat.
Unless otherwise stated, the values giv-
en in the tables assume that cooking is
started with the oven cold.

Roasting
Oven function: Conventional
Roasting dishes
•Any heat-resistant ovenware is suita-
ble to use for roasting (please read
the manufacturer's instructions).
•Large roasting joints can be roasted
directly in the roasting tray or on
the oven shelf with the roasting
tray placed below it.
•For all lean meats, we recommend
roasting these in a roasting tin
with a lid. This will keep the meat
more succulent.
•All types of meat, that can be
browned or have crackling, can be
roasted in the roasting tin without
the lid.
Tips on using the roasting chart
The information given in the follow-
ing table is for guidance only.
•We recommend cooking meat and
fish weighing 1 kg and above in
the oven.
•To prevent escaping meat juices or
fat from burning on to the pan, we
recommend placing some liquid in
the roasting pan.
•If required, turn the roast (after 1/2 -
2/3 of the cooking time).
•Baste large roasts and poultry with
their juices several times during
roasting. This will give better roasting
results.
•You can switch the oven off
about 10 minutes before the end of
the roasting time, in order to utilise
the residual heat.
