The Register

Prompt an Google-Suche: 'AEG BSS575021M schaltet sich von selbst "ein"'

#AIoverview sagt: "Wenn Ihr #AEG BSS575021M #Backofen sich von selbst einschaltet, könnte die Kindersicherung aktiviert sein. Dies kann durch versehentliches Betätigen der Tasten oder eine fehlerhafte Sensorsteuerung verursacht werden. Auch ein technischer Defekt, wie z.B. ein Fehler in der Stromversorgung, kann die Ursache sein."

We have it documented at https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/7042828?hl=en#zippy=%2Cai-overviews (on the bottom). Basically an AIO counts as a block, so it's all one position. It can be first position, if the block is shown first, but I don't know if AIO is always shown first.
