Usage, Tables, Tips
Pans
The better the pan, the better the results.
• You can recognise good pans by their bases. The base should be thick
and as flat as possible.
• Pans with aluminium or copper bases can leave
metal discoloration on the glass ceramic surface
that is very difficult or impossible to remove.
• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with damaged
bases that are rough or burred. Permanent
scratching may occur when the pans are slid.
• When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly
inwards (concave). They should under no circumstances be bowed outwards (convex).
Tips on Saving Energy
2
You will save valuable energy if you observe the following tips:
• Always place pans on the cooking zone before switching on.
• Soiled cooking zones and pan bases increase the
electricity consumption.
• If possible, always fit pans with a lid.
• Switch off the cooking zones before the end of
cooking to make use of the residual heat, e.g. to
keep food warm or for melting.
• The pan base and cooking zone should be the
same size.
When purchasing pans, pay attention to the
diameter of the base. Manufacturers often state
the diameter of the top of the pan
• Cooking times are reduced by up to 50% when a
pressure cooker is used.

Cleaning and Care
Ceramic Glass
Important: Cleaners must not come into contact with the ceramic
1
glass when hot! All cleaners must be removed with plenty of clean
water after cleaning as they may have a caustic effect when the rings
are next heated!
Do not use any aggressive cleaners, such as e.g. grill or oven sprays,
coarse scouring cleaners or pan cleaners that cause scratches.
Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is hand warm or
3
cold. By this means you will avoid soiling becoming burnt on.
Remove scale and water marks, fat spots and metallic shimmering discoloration with a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless steel
cleaner, e.g. with “Stahl-Fix“ or “Vitroclen“.
Light Soilage
1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and a little washing
up liquid.
2. Then rub dry with a clean cloth. No residues of cleaner must be left on
the surface.
3. Once a week, thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass surface with a
commercially available ceramic glass cleaner such as “Vitroclen“.
4. Then wipe the ceramic glass surface with plenty of clean water and rub
dry with a clean fluff-free cloth.
Stubborn Soilage
0 1. To remove food that has boiled over or
burnt on spots, use a glass scraper.
2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the
glass ceramic surface.
3. Remove soiling by sliding the scraper.
You can obtain glass scrapers and
3
ceramic glass cleaners from your specialist retailers.
33
Operating Instructions
1 Burnt on Soilage
0 1. Remove burnt on sugar, melted plastic,
aluminium foil or other melted materials
immediately, while the hob is still hot,
using a glass scraper.
Important: When using the glass scraper
1
on the hot cooking zone, there is a risk of
burns!
2. Clean the cooking surface as normal once
it is cold.
If the cooking zone has cooled down
3
already prior to the soilage being removed, warm it up again for cleaning.
Scratches or dark marks on the ceramic glass surface, which have been
caused by a pan base with sharp edges, cannot be removed. However,
they do not impair the function of the cooking surface.
The Hob Frame
Important! Do not put vinegar, lemons or scale removers on the hob
1
frame, otherwise mat spots will appear.
0 1. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid.
2. Soften dried dirt with a wet cloth. Then wipe off and rub dry.
34
What to do, if ...
... the cooking zones do not work?
0Check whether
• the corresponding cooking zone is switched on.
• the switch is set to the correct heat setting.
• in the case of multi-ring cooking zones: the required heating circuit
is switched on.
• the mains fuse (fuse box) has blown.
If this information does not provide you with the necessary assistance, please seek specialist advice.
Warning: Repairs to the appliance may only be carried out by approved
1
service engineers. Improper repairs can cause injury or serious malfunction. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact your local AEG
