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,

Advice and hints for using the
cooking zones
If you use the advice below
you will save energy and
make your cleaning tasks
easier.
Adjust the cooking zones
correctly.
for the cooking zones until the food is
brought to the boil. Then reduce the
setting as far as possible, without the
food going off the boil.
Use level saucepans. An
uneven saucepan may
increase the electricity
consumption by up to 50 per
cent. Check whether your
saucepans have level bases
by placing the item in question
upside down on a work top and
positioning a ruler on the base.
A curved base, both inwards and
outwards, will prolong the
cooking time and increase the
energy consumption
Select the highest setting
over will burn onto the hot
cooking zone.
Saucepans with very
shiny/bright bases will
prolong the cooking time
slightly compared with
cooking utensils with
matt/dark bases.
Use a tightly fitting lid on the
saucepan. Without a lid you
use more than three times as
much electricity.
The saucepan should match
the cooking zone – or be
slightly larger. Remember
that a large saucepan can also
hold small quantities. If the
diameter of the base is too small,
the energy consumption will
increase, and any food boiling

Cleaning and maintenance of
For reasons of hygiene and
safety, the cooking zones
must be kept clean. Grease
stains and spilled food
generate smoke when heated,
and can even cause fire.
Never use metal wool, metal sponges
or other abrasive cleaning agents.
The ceramic glass hob
Immediately scrape off stains caused
by food which has boiled over using
the scraper supplied with the hob,
spilled sugar, dishes containing sugar
(jam, juice, etc.), melted plastic and
aluminium foil while the ceramic hob
is still hot. If the ceramic hob is
allowed to cool it may become
damaged. A dirty ceramic hob
decreases the heat transfer between
cooking zones and cookware.
3. Wipe the ceramic hob clean with
a damp cloth or kitchen roll.
Tough stains can be removed by
rubbing the stain hard with
kitchen roll.
4. Wipe off remaining cleaning
agent with a damp cloth.
5. Wipe with a dry cloth, if
required.
Make sure that the ceramic hob is dry
when you heat it up again. Ceramic
hobs can develop rainbow-like stripes
if heated while damp.
Stainless steel surfaces
Clean the appliance after use with a
soft cloth well wrung out in warm
water, use a small amount of liquid
detergent for stubborn soiling.
Stainless steel parts may become straw
coloured with use, use a proprietary
stainless steel cleaner to remove this
straw discolouration.
After use the cooking zones should be
wiped with a damp cloth with washing
up liquid. For severe soiling you can
follow these steps:
1. Remove stains etc., with the
ceramic hob scraper.
2. Make sure that the ceramic hob
has cooled down. Use a ceramic
cleaning agent, such as vitroclen.

Tips on the use of the
ceramic hob unit
Do not slide saucepans across the
surface of the hob - always lift the pan
when placing it on, or removing it
from the ceramic surface.
Wipe the bottom surface of the pots
and pans with a clean dry cloth before
placing them on the ceramic surface.
This helps to reduce cleaning and
prevents scratching the hob glass.
Wipe off spills whilst the hob is warm.
Select the highest setting for the
cooking zones until the food is brought
to the boil, then reduce the setting.
Use saucepans with an even base. An
uneven based saucepan may increase
the electricity consumption by up to
50%.
The saucepan should match the
cooking zone or be slightly larger.
Use a tightly fitting lid on the saucepan
to reduce electricity consumption.

The decorative pattern on the ceramic
surface can become scratched and
marred with use, depending upon
maintenance, but does not adversely
affect performance.
Such blemishes are not covered by the
warranty and do not affect the
operation of the hob.
Spills and melts must be removed
immediately, while the surface is still
warm, using the scraper supplied with
the unit. Especially damaging are melted
plastic, aluminum, or any foodstuff
containing sugar, including natural sugar,
as these can create permanent
“pockmarks” and craters on the ceramic
surface. After scraping polish thoroughly
with the cleaning agent supplied with the
unit.
Utensils which have been in contact with
the above-mentioned melted materials
must be cleaned throughly before used
again on the ceramic-top hob unit.
Defects in the ceramic surface which can
be related to the above are not covered
by the warranty.
Warning:
Aluminum foil and plastic utensils are
not to be placed on hot surfaces.
The surface may not be used for storage.
Do not stare at the heating units when
in operation.
