INSTALLATION

Any gas installation must be carried out by a registered CORGI

installer, and in accordance with existing rules and regulations.

The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of this

manual.

Please, ensure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily accessible for

the engineer in the event of a breakdown.

WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any

protective materials, which were put on in the factory.

Operation

HOB BURNERS

To light a burner, turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to the

maximum position ( ), then push it down to ignite the burner.

Upon, ignition, adjust the flame as required.

If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, and try

again.

When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is

quite normal for the spark generator to be activated automatically.

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and

pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

Burner minimum maximum

diameter diameter

Double-crown 180 mm. 260 mm. Large (rapid) 180 mm. 260 mm. Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm. 220 mm. Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm.

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will

barely keep the liquid simmering.

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size,

the flame will spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the

handle to overheat.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated

splashes could easily ignite

If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local

AEG Service Force Centre.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must

DISCONNECT the hob from the electricity supply.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be

removed more easily than if it is left to cool.

The Hob Top

Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in

warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added. Avoid

the use of the following:

- household detergent and bleaches;

- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;

- steel wool pads;

- bath/sink stain removers.

Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is recommended that a

cleaning product such as Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.

Pan Supports

When washing the pan supports by hand, take care when drying them

as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary,

remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.

The Burners

The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.

Wash the burner caps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove

marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated

steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly

difficult to remove.

After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
