The safety aspects of this appliance comply with accepted technical
standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, as manufacturers we also believe it is our responsibility to familiarise you with the
following safety instructions.
Electrical Safety
• The installation and connection of the new appliance must only be
carried out by qualified personnel.
• Repairs to the appliance are only to be carried out by approved service engineers. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause
injury or serious malfunctioning. If your appliance needs repairing,
please contact your local AEG Service Force Centre or your dealer.
Please follow these instructions, otherwise the warranty is void in the
3
event of damages.
• Flush-mounted appliances may only be operated following installation in suitable installation cabinets and workplaces which conform
to the relevant standards. This ensures sufficient protection against
contact for electrical units as required by the VDE [Association of
German Electrical Engineers].
• If your appliance malfunctions or if fractures, cracks or splits appear:
– switch off all cooking zones,
– disconnect the hob from the electricity supply.
Child Safety
The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always
keep small children away from the appliance.
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 electric appliances into mains sockets near
the hob. Connection leads must not come into contact with the hot
surface.

Operating Instructions
• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise
cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).
• Switch off the cooking zones after use.
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.
To Avoid damaging your appliance
• Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.
• Do not operate the cooking zones when there is no pan or the pans
are empty.
• Glass ceramic is insensitve to temperature shock and very robust;
however it is not unbreakable. Especially sharp and hard objects that
fall on the cooking surface can damage it.
• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged
base. Scratching may occur if the pans are slid across the surface.
• Do not place any pans on the hob frame. Scratching and damage to
the paint may occur.
• Make sure that no acidic liquids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or descaling
agents, are spilt onto the hob frame, since these cause dull spots.
• If sugar or a preparation with sugar comes into contact with the hot
cooking zone and melts there it must be cleaned off immediately
with a scraper while it is still hot. If it cools, the surface may be damaged when it is removed.
• Keep all items and materials that can melt away from the glass
ceramic surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil, or oven foils. If something of this nature should melt onto the glass ceramic surface, it
must also be removed immediately using the scraper.

polyurethane parts are appropriately identified. Please dispose of
packaging material and, if appropriate, your old appliance properly.
• Please follow the national and regional regulations and material
identification (material separation, refuse collection, waste disposal
sites).
Information on disposal
• The appliance must not be disposed of with household rubbish.
• You can obtain information about collection dates or public refuse
disposal sites from your local refuse department or council.
• Warning! Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable.
Remove the mains lead.

Operating Instructions
The Key Features of Your Appliance
• Glass ceramic cooking surface: The appliance has a glass ceramic
cooking surface and 4 rapid response cooking zones. The particularly
powerful radiant heater elements significantly shorten the amount of
time taken for the zones to heat up.
• Sensor fields: Your appliance is operated using TOUCH CONTROL
sensor fields.
• Cleaning: The advantage of the glass ceramic cooking surface and
the sensor fields is their accessibility for cleaning. The flat surface is
easy to clean (see section: “Cleaning and Care”)
• On/Off sensor field: In addition to the sensor field “On/Off” switch,
the appliance has a separate mains switch with which the mains supply to the appliance can be completely switched on and off with one
touch.
• Displays: Digital displays show information about selected heat set-
tings, functions activated and any possible residual heat in the appropriate cooking zone.
• Safety cut-out: A safety cut-out ensures that all cooking zones
switch off automatically after a period of time if the setting has not
been changed.
• Keep warm setting: ! is the setting for keeping foods warm.
• Residual heat indicator: An h for residual heat is shown in the dis-
play if the cooking zone becomes so hot that there is a risk of burning.
• Timer: All rings can be automatically switched off using the inte-
grated timer. When the end of the cooking time has been reached,
the cooking zone switches off.

The four display fields that are assigned to the four cooking zones display:
– j, after being switched on and when the safety function causes an
automatic cut-out,
– = when a cooking zone is selected,
– ! to ), depending on the selected heat setting,
– a during automatic warm up,
– h when there is residual heat,
– f when there is a fault.
Cooking Zone Safety Cut-out

If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after a certain time or if
the heat setting is not changed, the corresponding cooking zone
switches itself off automatically.
h appears in the ring display for all rings that are switched on, and j
after they have cooled down.
The rings are switched off at:
• Heat setting1 - 2after 6 hours
• Heat setting3 - 4after 5 hours
• Heat setting5after 4 hours
• Heat setting6 - 9after 1.5 hours

n sensor field. After this the
Switching Off for Other Reasons
Liquids that boil over onto the control panel cause all cooking zones to
switch off immediately.
If you place a wet cloth on the control panel it has the same effect. In
both cases the appliance has to be switched on again using the mains
switch
n after removing the liquid or cloth.
Operating Instructions
Before using for the first time
Initial Cleaning
