Congratulations from AEG
Dear Customer,
Congratulations with your new Hob.
It is important that you become familiar with the functions and features of the Hob. You should therefore read these operating instructions as they will help you get the most out of your new Hob. Pay extra attention to sections marked . These are warning texts to help you avoid accidents.
Keep the operating instructions. They will come in handy if there is something you are not sure about, and should accompany the Hob if it is transferred to a new owner.
The structure of the operating instructions enables you to use them as a reference manual. The first part of the operating instructions contains a general description of your new product. Then follows a short introduction of the things to do before you use the Hob for the first time. The section “How to use” describes how the Hob is used in everyday life. Use this section until you are familiar with your new Hob. The section “Cleaning and Maintenance” provides information on both daily and more thorough cleaning of the individual components of the Hob. Should problems arise when you use the Hob, you can look in the section “Before calling service”, where there are instructions on how to remedy some practical and technical problems yourself.
Enjoy!
Regards,

Hint and tips
Environmental information
Important to know
The hob unit is intended for ordinary household cooking purposes. Any other use can result in damage to the unit as well as personal injury.
During use
During deep-fat frying, sauteèing, melting of butter, etc., one must always remain near the unit, due to the danger of fire. In the event of fire the unit must be shut off immediately (and the cooker hood as well, if in use).
Make sure that the unit is shut off when not in use - the knob should rest at “0”.
The unit becomes dangerously hot during use, and remain so for a period of time. They should therefore be treated with due respect. Keep children at a distance.
Never place plastic or paper, ect., on the unit. If the unit should be switched on by accident, the paper could burn, plastic melt, etc.
For hygienic and safety reasons the unit must be kept clean. Grease, oil and food spills create unpleasant odours when burnt, and can in some cases result in open flames.
Read - and adhere to - the users instructions, as well as any instructions and warnings printed on the labels of
the cleaning agents used.
The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
Please read the warranty.
Service

The control lamp will light when the fryer is switched on and will switch off when the set temperature is achieved. The light will come on and off in line with the thermostat regulation of the temperature.
Frying
Make sure the heating element is positioned at the bottom. Oil is poured into the frying container. The “Min” mark must be observed. This corresponds to an oil content of 1,5 liters. Maximum amount of oil in the container is 3,5 litres. The heating elements stay turned down and the fryer may be switched on at the desired temperature setting. The lid may be on the fryer to shorten the preheatingtime.

Stainless steel surfaces
Perform daily cleaning with a slightly damp cloth. For more severe soiling, use a liquid scouring cream. Always clean the steel in the direction of the steel finish. To ensure that the steel retains its shine, it is recommended that you use a polishing agent for stainless steel on a regular basis. Always polish in the direction of the steel finish (cross-wise).
Never use steel wool, metal sponges or other abrasive cleaning agents.

Tips on frying
Select the desired temperature and wait for the fryer lamp to go out. The oil is now at the desired temperature.
NB!! Remember that moist foodstuff should be dried before frying (ie. seafood, vegetables, fruit, fish). After frying the basket is lifted out and carefully shaken to remove excess oil (the basket may be hung on the fixing bracket in order to let the oil run off further). In the table the approximate times are given for frying, which may serve as a guide. The times depend on the finished appearance and personal taste.
If you should want to fry large amounts of food at the same time, it is best to take up the basket after 1-2 minutes so that the oil may quickly reach the correct temperature again. The fried food will get more crispy this way. If it does not get crispy enough (even if the temperature is set correctly), or if the oil changes colour to light brown, the oil should be changed.
NB!! Make sure that no naked flames are near the fryer. The oil is hot and ignites easily. Remember to set the temperature dial back to 0 once the frying is finished.

Food residue left in the oil must be removed before the fryer is used again because of fire risk!
If you should want to use both the grill and the fryer, for instance to make a beef steak with french fries, the following method may be used:
1. Prepare the fryer for use by removing the grill grid and box for lava blocks, and turn the grill elements upright. Heat the oil to 190˚C (Approx. 10 minutes). Put the chips into the basket and lower it in the heated oil. Boil the chips almost ready (crispy an light brown). Hang the basket for dripping on the bracket and then place it on kitchen paper. Switch off the fryer.
2. The grill is used as follows: install the lava blocks box, lower the grill elements and lay on the grill grid. Preheat on setting 12 for about 5-8 minutes before laying on the beef steaks. Fry the steaks (10-15 minutes form rare to well done). Switch off the grill.
side and switch on the fryer. After a few minutes the oil is once again hot enough and the chips may be fried until they are crispy.
