AEG OVEN MCD_274 - Manual (Page 20)

Kitchen timer
The kitchen timer can also be used as a general purpose
reminder. For example you could use it to set the time it
takes to boil the egg that you are cooking on the hob.
Microwave only
In this mode, microwaves generate heat directly in the food.
This mode is highly suitable for warming, for example, ready
cooked food and drinks, the defrosting of meat or
vegetables, and for cooking food like fish and vegetables.
Grilling
Heat is generated by a grilling element set in the roof of the
oven. This is particularly suitable for toasting and grilling e.g.
steaks and sausages.
Microwave and Grill cooking
The microwave mode can be used together with grilling.
Dishes will be cooked more quickly, whilst being crisp and
brown at the same time.
Auto Defrost and Autocook programmes
Automatic programmes for defrosting and cooking a range of
popular foods are available. Select the programme (enter the
weight for autodefrost programmes) and the rest of the
programming is done automatically.
Child Safety Lock
This appliance has a safety feature which prevents the
accidental running of the oven by a child.
Manual Defrosting using 180W
For manual defrosting (without using Autodefrost features)
use 180W. To speed up the defrosting of dense foods over
450g (1lb), the appliance may start on full power for 1 - 3
minutes, then be reduced to 180W until defrosting is
complete.
