Before using the appliance

Rating plate

This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable).

The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.

Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.

This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance. To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

For your safety wall coverings at the rear of the appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.

Cookware

Main oven - Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 30cm (12” x 12”) as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance.

Preparing to use your appliance

Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft cloth and hot soapy water and wash the furniture before use. We suggest that you run the oven(s) and grill for 10 – 15 minutes at maximum temperature, to burn off any residue from their surfaces. Accessible parts may become hotter than in normal use. Children should be kept away. During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

Grill and oven furniture

The following items of grill and oven furniture have been supplied with the appliance.

1 grill pan

2 grill pan handles

Condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam similar to a boiling kettle. The vents allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the appliance when opening the door(s) to allow any build up of steam or heat to release. If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets.

1 grill pan grid

2 straight shelves for oven cooking

The hob

Using the hob

The gas hob has different burner sizes to suit different types of cooking:

To ensure maximum burner efficiency only use pots and pans with flat bases appropriate to the burner size used.

Larger burner (Rapid) - use a large pan for food such as chips.

Medium burners (Normal) - use for everyday cooking.

Small burner (Simmer) - use for simmering foods such as soups and stews.

The largest pan which you should use on any burner is 230mm (9"). The base of the smallest pan should not measure less than 100mm (4").

Ensure the pan supports are correctly fitted before using the hob.

To light the hob burners

The hob ignition works by means of a battery.

Push in and hold the control knob, turn to the large flame symbol (highest setting) and press the ignition button immediately. Keep the control knob depressed for up to 5 seconds, but no longer than 10 seconds. After this time release the controls. The flame should remain alight. If after 10 seconds the burner has not lit, stop operating the appliance and wait at least 1 min before attempting a further ignition of the burner.

When the burner has lit release the control and ignition button, adjust the setting as required.

8

Warning: If the ignition button is not pressed immediately a build up of gas may cause the flame to spread.

To turn off any burner

1.Turn the control knob to the off position. This is shown by a large dot.

When lighting any burner, ensure that it is lit before you leave the appliance.

When turning off a burner, ensure the flame has gone out before leaving the appliance.

In the event of the burner flames being accidentally extinguished, turn off the burner control and do not attempt to re-ignite the burner for at least 1 min.

Place pans on the centre of the burners.

Position pans so the handles cannot be accidentally knocked or overhang the appliance.

Lift pans on and off the pan supports.

Do not slide them across the hob.

Do not leave accidental spillage on the hob or removable parts. The spillage should be wiped up and the parts washed and carefully dried as soon as the hob, pan supports and burner parts are cool enough to touch.

A flat based Wok will stand stable on the pan supports. If you use a round Wok with a collar support, the collar must be the open wirework type otherwise the performance of the burner will be affected.

Take care to avoid burns and scalds when reaching across the hotplate.

Things to note

If you are having any difficulty lighting a hob burner turn all the hob controls off and make sure the burner parts have been replaced correctly.

Hints and tips

Do not overfill pans or they will boil over.

Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip.

9

Take extra care when deep fat frying, do not cover the pan with a lid. Do not leave a pan unattended. If the pan catches fire, leave it where it is and turn off all controls. Place a damp cloth or a fitting lid over the pan to smother the flames. Never put water on the fire. Leave to cool for 30 minutes.

The grill

CAUTION – Accessible parts may be hot when the grill is in use. Young children should be kept away.

When you first operate the grill you may hear some sounds as the burner heats up, this is quite normal and is not a fault on the appliance.

Using the grill

Push in and hold the control knob, turn to the large flame symbol (highest setting) and press the ignition button immediately. Keep the control knob depressed for up to 5 seconds, but no longer than 10 seconds. After this time release the controls. The flame should remain alight. If after 10 seconds the burner has not lit, stop operating the appliance and wait at least 1 min before attempting a further ignition of the burner.

Things to note

Some smoke from fat splashes may be evident as the grill cleans itself.

Never cover the grill pan or grid with foil as this can lead to grill fires.

The grill pan and handle

The grill pan requires assembly before use (see Fig. 1).

Ensure the handle is correctly located.

Fig.1

AEG L51MBN, L51MWL, L51MBL, L51MWN Manual

NOTE: Taptite screws are used to secure the handle. These are thread forming screws and sufficient pressure must be applied to allow the screws to produce a thread in the plunged holes.

The grill pan is designed so that you can pull it forward but it will stay supported. To remove the pan push it back as far as possible and lift it off. Replace it in reverse order.

Place the grill pan on the shelf so that the pan is positioned centrally beneath the grill.

Hints and tips

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.

Adjust the grid to allow for different thicknesses of food.

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.

Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid when grilling meats.

When toasting bread, use the grid in the high position.

Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few minutes before sealing steaks or toasting. Adjust the heat setting as necessary during cooking.

The food should be turned over during cooking as required.
