From now on, I should like to make cooking and baking more pleasurable for you. Not simply because of my attractive appearance, but also thanks to “intrinsic qualities”. I am economical in terms of energy consumption, easy to operate, and simple to care for. If you carefully read and follow my operating instructions before first use, you are sure to experience a good deal of joy when using me to cook, bake, roast, and grill your food. You must read these instructions prior to using the appliance and retain them for future reference. Printed on recycled paper. AEG - putting words into action.

Contact AEG Service Department as soon as possible. - When you use me to prepare your food, my oven doors and cooking plates become hot. Therefore keep small children well away from me. This especially applies when you are grilling or pyrolytically cleaning my oven (where applicable). - Overheated fat and cooking oil may ignite. Prepare foods requiring fat or oil (chips) only under constant supervision. - Do not use me to heat your room. - Take care when using small electrical appliances near the cooker Connection leads should not come in contact with hot hobs/cooking zones or get trapped in the hot oven door. - Do not line my oven base with aluminium foil or place any other cooking utensil on my base, as this will trap heat resulting in damage to my enamel interior This invalidates my warranty. - The vitreous enamel in your oven is very durable. However vitreous enamel is adversely affected by fruit acids (rhubarb, lemon, etc.) and tea which will discolour and dull the enamel. The performance of the oven is not affected. To prevent spillage 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 resulting in warping and twisting of the pan when next used as a meat or grill pan. - I comply with radio interference suppression specifications EN 55014 (previously EEC Directive 82/499) and as appropriate with EN 60555 relating to the Retroactive Effect of the Mains Supply 4 S11 12/89 GB/UK - SIB2 2/90 GB/UK - SIB12 2/90 GB/UK Appliance description 264 A Push-in cooking method selector, illuminated with electronic display for main oven B Push-in temperature selector,, illuminated with electronic display for main oven C Electronic clock with minute minder, auto-timer and temperature indicator for meat thermometer D Cookmatic (electronic cooking guide) for main oven E Push-in temperature selector for secondary oven, illuminated with electronic display for secondary oven F Push-in coocing method selector, illuminated with with electronic display for secondary oven G Push-in handles to open my oven doors Features 5 First use Operating the control knobs To operate the illuminated control knob press to release the control.
