Function Description

The AEG KMK365060M is a versatile microwave combi-oven designed for various cooking purposes in a domestic indoor environment. It combines traditional oven heating functions with microwave capabilities, offering a wide range of cooking options.

Heating Functions: The appliance features several heating functions for conventional cooking, baking, and roasting:

• True Fan Cooking: Ideal for baking on up to two shelf positions simultaneously and drying food. It recommends setting the temperature 20-40°C lower than for conventional cooking.
• Conventional Cooking: Suitable for baking and roasting food on a single shelf position.
• Turbo Grilling: Designed for roasting large meat joints or poultry with bones on one shelf position, making gratins, and browning dishes.
• Pizza Function: Specifically for baking pizza, providing intensive browning and a crispy bottom.

Microwave Combi Functions: The oven also integrates microwave power with traditional heating for enhanced cooking flexibility:

• Turbo Grilling + MW: Roasts large pieces of meat on one level, makes gratins, and browns, with a microwave boost (power range: 100-600 W).
• True Fan Cooking + MW: Bakes on one shelf position with a microwave boost (power range: 100-600 W).

Microwave Functions: Dedicated microwave functions are available for specific tasks:

• Defrost: For defrosting meat, fish, and cakes (power range: 100-200 W).
• Reheat: For heating up pre-prepared meals and delicate food (power range: 300-700 W).
• Microwave: General heating up and cooking (power range: 100-1000 W).

Assisted Cooking: The appliance includes an "Assisted Cooking" submenu, which offers a set of additional functions and pre-programmed dishes with recommended heating functions, temperatures, and times. This feature allows for quick preparation of dishes using default settings, which can also be adjusted during cooking. Some dishes may also support "Weight Automatic" cooking.

Clock Functions: The oven is equipped with several clock functions to manage cooking times:

• Minute Minder: A timer that sounds a signal when the set time ends.
• Cooking Time: Stops the heating function when the set time ends.
• Time Delay: Allows postponing the start and/or end of cooking.
• Uptimer: A function that tracks the duration of cooking, which can be turned on or off via the settings menu.

Usage Features

The AEG KMK365060M is designed for intuitive operation with a control panel featuring retractable knobs and a clear display.

Control Panel:

• Retractable Knobs: To use the appliance, press the knobs, and they will pop out.
• Knobs for Heating Functions: Used to select a heating function to turn on the appliance or to turn it off by rotating to the "off" position.
• Control Knob: Used to set temperature, duration, and microwave power, and to navigate menus.
• Display: Shows key functions, temperature, time, and various indicators such as lock, assisted cooking, settings, microwave function, minute minder, end time, time delay, uptimer, and a progress bar.

Setting Functions:

• Heating Functions: Select a heating function using the dedicated knob, then turn the control knob to set the temperature, and press "OK".
• Microwave Functions: Remove all accessories, insert the microwave bottom glass plate, place food on it, select a microwave function, press "OK" to start with default settings, then adjust duration and microwave power using the control knob and "WATT" button, and press "OK". The microwave function pauses if the door is opened and resumes when closed and "OK" is pressed.
• Microwave Combi Functions: Similar to microwave functions, but after selecting the combi function, adjust temperature and microwave power.
• Assisted Cooking: Enter the menu, select "Assisted Cooking", choose a dish, confirm, insert the dish, and confirm again. The display will show "F" and a number for the function, or "P" and a number for the dish.

Accessories: The appliance comes with several accessories:

• Wire Shelf: For cookware, cake tins, and roasts. It should be pushed between the guide bars with the feet pointing down.
• Baking Tray: For cakes and biscuits, pushed between the guide bars.
• Microwave Bottom Glass Plate: Used specifically with microwave functions. Food can be placed directly on it. It is not suitable for combined microwave functions.

Additional Functions:

• Lock: Prevents accidental changes to appliance functions. It can be activated when the appliance is working (cooking continues, control panel locked) or when off (prevents turning on). A signal sounds upon activation.
• Automatic Switch-off: For safety, the appliance turns off after a certain time if no settings are changed during a heating function. This does not apply to "Light" or "Time Delay" functions.
• Cooling Fan: Automatically turns on during operation to keep surfaces cool and may continue to operate after the appliance is turned off until it cools down.

Energy Efficiency: The manual provides tips for energy saving:

• Keep the appliance door closed during operation and avoid opening it too often.
• Ensure the door gasket is clean and properly fixed.
• Use metal cookware for non-microwave functions.
• Avoid preheating the appliance when possible.
• Minimize breaks between baking multiple dishes.
• Use fan-assisted cooking functions to save energy.
• Utilize residual heat to keep food warm or cook further by reducing temperature 3-10 minutes before the end of cooking for durations longer than 30 minutes.
• Turn off the internal lamp during cooking and only turn it on when needed.
