Operation
Hob burners
To light a burner:
F
lturn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to the maximum position, then push it down to
ignite the burner. Upon, ignition, adjust the flame as required.
lIf 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).
Burnerminimummaximum
diameterdiameter
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
The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing them 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.

Something Not Working?
If the hob is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before contacting
your local Service Force Centre.
SYMPTOM
n There is no spark when lighting the gas
SOLUTION
u Check that the unit is plugged in and the
electrical supply is switched on
u Check that the RCCB has not tripped (if
fitted)
u Check the mains fuse has not blown
u Check the burner cap and crown have
been replaced correctly, e.g. after
cleaning.
n The gas ring burns unevenly
u Check the main jet is not blocked and the
burner crown is clear of food particles.
u Check the burner cap and crown have
been replaced correctly, e.g. after
cleaning.
If after all these checks, your hob still does not operate correctly, contact your local Service
Force Centre.
Please note that it will be necessary to provide proof of purchase for any in-guarantee
service calls.
In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks have been made as the
engineer will make a charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical breakdown.
