OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Safety

The safety aspects of this appliance comply with the accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, we also consider it our obligation as a manufacturer to make you aware of the following safety information.

Electrical Safety

• The new appliance may only be installed and connected up by qualified personnel, according to the manufacturer’s instructions and to the relavant British Standards. Please observe this instruction, otherwise the warranty will not cover any damage that may occur.

• Repairs to the appliance should only be carried out by approved service engineers. Improper repairs can cause injury or significant malfunction. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact your local AEG Service Force Centre.

• If your appliance malfunctions, or fractures, cracks or splits appear: – switch off all cooking zones, – disconnect the hob from the electricity supply.

Safety

Child Safety

The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always keep small children away. The hob is designed to be operated by adults. Do not allow children to play near or with the hob.

Safety During Use

• This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.

• Do not use the hob to heat the room.

• Take care when plugging electrical appliances into mains sockets near

the hob. Connecting leads must not come into contact with the hot surface.

• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).

• Switch the cooking zones off after use.

Page 6

Safety

Safety When Cleaning

• For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high pressure cleaner.

• Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions in this manual.

How to Avoid Damage to Your Appliance

• Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.

• Do not use the cooking zones with empty pans, or without pans.

• Ceramic glass is insensitive to temperature shock and very robust,

however it is not unbreakable. Hard and sharp objects, in particular, can damage the cooking surface if they fall on it.

• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with damaged bases that are rough or burred. Scratching may occur when the pans are slid.

• Do not place any pans on the hob frame. Scratching may occur or the paint damaged.

• Ensure that liquids containing acids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or scale remover do not come into contact with the hob frame, otherwise matt spots will appear.

• If sugar or a dish containing sugar comes into contact with a hot cooking zone and then melts, remove the soiling immediately whilst still hot using a scraper. If it cools, damage to the surface may occur on removal.

• Keep all items and materials that can melt away from the ceramic glass surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil, or oven foils. If something of this nature should melt onto the ceramic glass surface, it must also be removed immediately using the scraper.

• If you wish to use special types of pan (e.g. a pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc.), please observe the manufacturer's instructions.

• Avoid boiling pans dry. The bases could be irreparably damaged in the process and the glass ceramic cooking surface also damaged.

To operate the TOUCH CONTROL sensor buttons, place your finger flat on the desired button until the corresponding indicator illuminates, or extinguishes, or the desired function is performed.

For quicker adjustment leave your finger on the button until the desired value is reached.

All entries are confirmed by an acoustic signal.

Switching on the appliance

Switch on the appliance using the main “On/Off“ button. The “Heat Setting/Residual Heat“ display fields indicate j.

After the main “On/Off“ button has been operated to switch on your

Switching off the appliance

Operate the main “On/Off“ button to completely switch off the appliance.

After the individual cooking zones or the entire cooking surface have

been switched off, the presence of residual heat is indicated by h (as in “Hot“) in the “Heat Setting/Residual Heat“ display fields of the respective cooking zones.

If all cooking zones are switched off, the appliance switches off automatically after a period of time.

Operation of the Cooking Surface

If you select a higher setting when the automatic function is in opera-

tion, e.g. from § to %, the previous warm up time is taken into account. If you select a lower setting, then the automatic warm up function is brought to an immediate end. If you start cooking again on a cooking zone that is still warm, the automatic warm up function uses the residual heat. This saves time and energy.

Switching off a cooking zone

Select the desired cooking zone using the cooking zone buttons.

Press the + and - buttons simultaneously to switch off.

Cooking without the automatic warm up function

If you want to use the cooking zone without the automatic warm up function, then select the desired heat setting with the - button.

Select a high setting for warming up. As soon as steam starts to form or the oil is hot, turn back to the heat setting necessary for further cooking.

Switch on the appliance and select the desired cooking zone using the

cooking zone selection buttons. The decimal point in the associated display field illuminates. Press the - button to set the required heat setting ! to ).

The “Heat Setting/Residual Heat“ display field for the corresponding cooking zone indicates the current setting.

Press the + and - buttons simultaneously to switch off.

If you want to switch on again a cooking zone on which there is food

that is already hot, you should always choose the required heat setting using the - button. In this way you will avoid the food being overcooked by the automatic warm up function.

Tables and Tips

Pans

The better the pan, the better the results.

• You can recognise good quality pans by the base of the pan.

• The base should be as thick and flat as possible. Rough bases (e.g. on

cast iron pans) will scratch the cooking surface when slid.

• Use

high sided pans for dishes with a lot of liquid, so that nothing

boils over

• Ensure that the pan is in the centre of the cooking zone and covers

the heated/marked area.

Avoid pans boiling dry. The base could be damaged and

• Dirty cooking zones and pan bases damage the glass ceramic cooking

Tips for cooking with and without the automatic warm up function

The automatic warm up function is suitable for:

• dishes that start off cold, are heated up at a high setting and do not

need to be continually watched when cooking,

• dishes that are put in a hot frying pan.

The automatic warm up function is not suitable for:

• goulash and similar braised dishes that need continual turning until

browned correctly, liquid adding and then braising until cooked,

• dumplings, pasta dishes with large amounts of liquid,

• cooking with pressure cookers,

• very large quantities of soup/stew with more than 2 litres of liquid.

General notes:

• When cooking without the automatic warm up function, we recom-

mend the use of a high heat setting to warm up the food (using the

button) and then leaving the dish to finish cooking at an appro-

priate lower heat setting.

• You can use the ! heat setting for keeping food warm.

• Take note of the results when you initially use the appliance. You can

then decide which heat setting is the best for "your dishes" in the "quantities you are accustomed to preparing" with "your pans". You will then rapidly come to value the merits of the automatic function and will feel at ease with you new cooking surface.

Cleaning and Care

Ceramic glass cooking surface

It is important to clean the cooking surface after each use.

Important!

scouring cleaners or pan cleaners that scratch. Always clean the cooking surface after each use. Use a damp cloth and

a little washing up liquid. Then rub the cooking surface dry with a clean cloth. No residues of cleaner must be left on the surface.

Clean the entire cooking surface thoroughly once a week. For cleaning

use “Stahl-Fix“or “Vitroclen“. Then rinse the entire cooking surface with plain water and rub it dry

with a clean cloth. Ensure that no remnants of cleaner are left on the surface! Otherwise the cooking surface will be damaged! Only use the recommended cleaners.

Never use aggressive cleaners such as, for example, coarse
