Take great care when heating fats and oils as they will ignite if they become too hot. Never place plastic or any other material which may melt in or on the oven. Do not stand too close to the oven or grill while in use as warm air will exhaust from the grill cavity and the vents on the front frame of the cooker. Always use oven gloves to remove and place food in the oven. Ensure that all vents are left unobstructed to ensure ventilation of the oven cavity. Never line any part of the cooker with aluminium foil.
Stand clear when opening the drop down oven doors. Support the doors using the handles until fully open.
Never leave the cooker unattended when the oven door is open.
Do not place sealed cans or aerosols inside the oven. They may explode if they are heated. Ensure that all control knobs are in the OFF position when not in use. Do not stand on the cooker or on the open oven doors. Do not hang towels, dishcloths or clothes from the cooker or its handles. They are a safety hazard.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR OVEN
The Control Panel
A - Main Oven Temperature Control B - Main Oven Indicator Neon C - Electronic Timer D - Dual Grill Control E - Grill Indicator Neon F - Second Oven Indicator Neon G - Second Oven Temperature Control
The Cooling Fan for the Controls
The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill is switched on and after a short time when either of the ovens are in use. It may run on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. During the initial period the cooling fan may turn ON and OFF, this is quite normal.
Control Panel Indicator Neons
These lights indicate whether the grill or ovens are switched ON. In the case of the ovens, the neons also indicate when the set temperature has been reached. The indicator neon will go out when the oven has reached the set temperature. It will turn on and off during cooking to show that the oven temperature is being maintained.
If the neons do not operate as the instructions indicate the controls have been incorrectly set. Return all controls to zero and reset following the instructions for the required setting.

BEFORE USING THE OVEN FOR THE FIRST TIME
When first switching on
When the cooker is first switched on at the wall the timer will flash. Press buttons ( and ) together, while holding them down press (+) button until the correct time of day is reached. To use the timer refer to instructions on page 7.
Rating plate
Record the model, product and serial numbers on the inside back cover of this instruction book from the rating plate. This is situated on the lower front frame of the oven and can be seen upon opening the main oven door. The oven must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the oven is given on the rating plate.
The rating plate must not be removed from the oven front frame as this may invalidate the guarantee.
Preparing to use your oven
Clean the ovens with a soft cloth and hot soapy water and wash the grill and oven furniture before use. The grill and ovens should be heated without food to burn off any residue from the elements. To do this, run the ovens at 220°C for 10 - 15 minutes. The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes. During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.
Condensation and Steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle does. The ovens are vented to allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the cooker when opening the oven doors to allow any build up of steam or heat to be released. If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the cooker, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the cooker. To prevent discolouration occurring, regularly wipe away condensation and any soilage from the cooker surfaces.
Cookware
Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven.
Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm (12" x 14") as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance. Do not place bakeware directly on the second oven base when the oven is on as damage to the oven enamel and bakeware will occur.

Release all buttons. The AUTO display will flash. Reset the cooker to manual by pressing the ( ) button. In the event of an interruption of the electricity supply, the timer will reset itself to zero, and all programming will be cancelled.
7. AUTOMATIC COOKING
It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before automatic cooking. Always ensure commercially prepared food is well within its use by date and that home prepared food is fresh and of good quality.
When cooking is complete, do not leave food to stand in the oven, but remove and cool it quickly if the food is not to be consumed immediately.
Fig.15
Always ensure food in the oven has been covered before cooking if it is not possible to remove food immediately after cooking.

THE DUAL GRILL
CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY.
The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the full area of the grill can be used or for economy purposes, the centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food.
USING THE GRILL
1. To operate the grill turn the grill control
clockwise for full grill or anticlockwise for centre section only.
2. The highest number represents the hottest
setting and the lowest the coolest setting.
3. Ensure the second oven control is in the OFF
position '0'.
THE GRILL DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING GRILLING. IF CLOSED THE ELEMENTS WILL SWITCH OFF AND THE OVEN LIGHT WILL TURN ON AND OFF AS A WARNING
THINGS TO NOTE
l
The cooling fan for the controls will operate in
conjunction with the grill. For more information on the operation of the cooling fan see page 4.
l
The grill indicator neon will glow until the
desired power level has been reached. It will turn ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the temperature is being maintained.
l
The outer grill element may appear to glow
slightly brighter than the inner element. This is quite normal.
l
The cranked shelf MUST only be used in the
grill compartment.
l
Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident
as the grill cleans itself.
11
THE GRILL PAN AND HANDLE
The grill pan is supplied with a removable handle.
1. To attach the handle, place the wirework under
the cut out in the pan so that the metal plate hooks over the top of the grill pan.
2. Slide the handle to the left and over the central
bump on the grill pan.
Ensure the handle is correctly located. The grill pan handle should be in place when grilling.
Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill.
1.
2.
3. To remove the handle, slide the handle to the
right and lift the handle away from the cut out on the grill pan.
HINTS AND TIPS
l
Most foods should be placed on the grid in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift the food out of the fats and juices. Food such as fish, liver and kidneys may be placed directly on the trivet or grill pan base if preferred.
l
Use the trivet to keep fat splashing to a minimum when grilling meat items.
l
Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow for different thicknesses of food. Position the food close to the element for faster cooking and further away for more gentle cooking.
l
Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep them moist during cooking.
3.
l
Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed around the outer edges or underneath the grid when grilling meats.
l
When toasting bread, we suggest that the top runner position is used with the grid in its 'high' position.
12
l
Preheat the grill on full setting for a few minutes to seal meat or for toasting. Adjust the heat setting and the shelf as necessary during cooking.
l
The food should be turned over during cooking as required.
l
When using the centre section grill, ensure food is placed centrally on the grilling grid directly beneath the grill element.
Note
If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered from your local AEG Service Centre by quoting part number 311479800\6.
