Before using the appliance

Rating plate

This is situated on the 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.

Preparing to use your appliance

Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft cloth using hot soapy water. 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.

The cooling fan for the controls

The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill is switched on and after a short time when the oven is 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.

Always allow the cooling fan to cool the appliance down before switching off at the wall prior to carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work.

Control panel indicator neon(s)

The indicator neon will operate when the grill (where applicable) or oven(s) is switched on. The indicator neon will glow. It may turn on and off during use to show that the setting is being maintained. If the neon does 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.

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. This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and foodstuff from surfaces.

AEG-Electrolux EOU41000, EOU41000W, EOU41000X User Manual

Things to note

When setting shorter periods of time (30 minutes or less) you should set a longer period to be timed initially.

Your oven is equiped with a mechanical minute minder.

To set the minute minder turn the control clockwise to the required time.

Once the end time has been reached you will hear an acoustic alarm.

You should then wind the control back to the required time.

This will improve the accuracy of your timer for shorter periods of time.

The longer the set time duration, the longer the acoustic alarm will sound

The grill

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

The top oven is ideal for use as a warming compartment. It can be used to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use the lowest setting on the top oven temperature control.

Using the top oven

Turn the top oven/grill setting control to the required setting.

Things to note

Do not place dishes, tins and trays directly on the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.

To fit the top oven shelf

The shelf should be fitted with the straight rods uppermost on the frame and the forms towards the back of the oven.
