As responsible manufacturers we take care to make sure
that our products are designed and constructed to meet the
required safety standards when properly installed and used.
Your AGA 60 is a compact cooker which combines the design
values and cooking principles of the traditional AGA with the
exibility to turn each cooking area o and on as you require,
thereby tting into your lifestyle beautifully.
The AGA 60 has been designed to have all the attributes of a
larger AGA within a small space.
Refer to the diagram in the Overview chapter to familiarise
yourself with the product and refer to the relevant sections
for upper oven, lower oven, grill, etc.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: PLEASE READ THE
ACCOMPANYING WARRANTY.
Any alteration that is not approved by AGA could invalidate
the approval of the appliance, operation of the warranty and
could aect your statutory rights.
In the interests of safety and eective use, please read the
following before using your new AGA appliance.
Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural
ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation
device (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for
additional ventilation, for example, opening of a window, or
more eective ventilation, for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
Installation must be to local and national wiring regulations
and carried out by a qualied engineer.
A little smoke and some odour may be emitted when rst
switched on. This is normal and harmless (from oven lagging
and starch binder on the element insulation) and will cease
after a short period of use.

Control panel
When switching on the AGA cooker for the rst few times,
there are two things you may notice, neither of which should
cause concern.
The AGA cooker will emit an odour for a short while, this is
simply due to the protective oil we put on the hotplate and
ovens burning o. Due to the newness in the rst couple of
hours, it is advisable to open the kitchen window while this
takes place.
Condensation may occur on the top and front plate whilst the
AGA cooker is heating up, caused by the insulation lagging
and starch binder on the element insulation drying out. The
condensation should be wiped away as soon as possible to
prevent staining the enamel.
Your AGA 60 has the external appearance of a classic AGA
heat storage enamelled cast iron cooker. However, it’s
exibility is almost unbounded because in place of a single
heat source each cooking zone has its own electrically heated
cast iron element (s). The separation of cooking zones, allows
a choice of control. You are able to select only the zones that
you want, or need, to use.
Cooker hoods and oven venting
It is recommended that this AGA is tted with a cooker hood
above it. The AGA venting system is located on top of the
AGA and is designed for venting the moisture from the ovens.
The cooker hood should be positioned not less than the
minimum height as recommended by the manufacturer, from
the top of the AGA.
The AGA 60 ovens are manufactured from cast iron, over a
period of time they will become individually seasoned.
However, the ovens will rust if high moisture content foods
are not covered (especially in the simmering oven) or
spillages are not cleaned up.
It is also not advisable to leave a full or partially lled
saucepan/utensils with high moisture content food in the
ovens when they are not in use.
To season the ovens a light vegetable oil is ideal (corn oil is
best), spray oil is recommended. Any stubborn stains can be
removed with the wire brush supplied.
Cleaning details can be found on “Cleaning & caring for
your cooker” on page 18.

General advice
Food should not be placed into any oven until it is up to
normal operating heat.
The oven doors should not be left open for long periods of
time during cooking and heating up.
Store the cold plain shelf outside the cooker. Use it cold in
the roasting oven to deect heat from the top of the oven,
creating a more moderate oven temperature underneath. It
can also be used as a baking sheet.
Warm up times
As the AGA works on the principle of storing heat, time is
required to gather that heat from the electric elements to
saturate the castings. We recommend to allow an hour heat
up time. The optional programmer is a great asset as it can
be set to get the top oven to its working heat, ready for you
to cook when you walk through the door.
The principle of heat storage means that the ovens and
hotplate are at a pre-set heat, the cooking areas are named
after their function rather than temperatures.
Using the zones of the AGA 60
The dierent zones of the AGA 60 cooker are described
individually, in the following pages.
The traditional AGA heat storage cooker is famous for the
gentle warmth it emits, with the AGA 60 you will get warmth
only when the cooker is on or warmth to a lesser degree
when only parts of it are on.
The hotplate
The cast iron hotplate is operated manually and is machined
at to give the best all-over contact with the AGA saucepans,
grill pan, frying pan and kettle.
The boiling plate setting is the hottest with the simmering
plate setting being cooler. It has electric elements embedded
into the cast iron which heat up in approximately 11 and 8
minutes respectively. The hotplate can be used completely
independently from the ovens.
The whole hotplate area can be used for cooking and several
pans can be accommodated on the plate at any one time. The
hotplate is set very slightly above the top plate to minimise
scratching as the pans are pulled to one side to simmer.
The chrome insulated cover is brought down over the
hotplate when it is heating up or not in use. When the
hotplate is ‘ON’ the insulated cover will be warm. We strongly
advise not to put anything such as kettles, saucepans or
baking tins directly onto the insulated cover because it will
show any scratches - invest in a chef’s pad to protect the
surface if the cover is to be used as a resting place!
Keep the hotplate clear of any burnt on food or crumbs
by brushing with the wire brush, supplied with your AGA.
Cleaning details can be found on “Cleaning & caring for
your cooker” on page 18.
Hotplate control
To operate the boiling plate setting turn the control knob to
the position and similarly to the for the simmer plate
setting.
The boiling plate setting
The hottest setting, the boiling plate setting is used for
boiling, grilling, stir-frying, making toast - indeed anything
that requires a high heat. Green vegetables keep their
colour when boiled quickly here, or use a steamer over the
saucepans to cook more than one vegetable at once.
When stir-frying or cooking anything that is inclined to splash
we would recommend using an AGA Splash Shield which will
protect the insulated cover from splatter, making cleaning
a doddle! Just wash the Splash Shield in hot soapy water or
place in a dishwasher between two dinner plates.
Please be advised the boiling plate setting is too hot to cook
food directly on it.
The simmering plate setting
The simmering plate setting is the cooler of the two settings
and so is used for recipes that require a lower heat such as,
making sauces, scrambling eggs, heating milk, slow frying,
simmering soups and root vegetables. In addition, it can
be used to cook on directly as a form of griddle - invaluable
for toasted sandwiches, quesadillas, drop scones, searing
scallops and even a non-fat fried egg! Slow cooked toast can
be made on the simmering plate setting, no need to use the
AGA toaster here.

The resting plates
The resting plates are useful when you wish to move a pan o
boil or to a lower temperature.
Take care when removing and replacing the cast iron
resting plates, as they are heavy. Ensure they are cold before
removing.
Removing resting plates
Insert lifting tool in recess at rear of resting plate. Lift up at
rear, the slide out carefully from the side, Fig. 3.2.
Replacement of resting plates
Replace resting plates carefully, as shown in Fig. 3.3.
The ovens
Your AGA 60 has two ovens which are pre-set at a dierent
heat, just like the traditional AGA heat storage cooker. The top
oven has two temperature settings one for the roasting and
one for baking.
Top Oven
• The roasting oven setting for high temperature cooking
• The baking oven setting for moderate temperature
cooking
• The simmering oven for long. slow cooking.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE DOORS
OPEN, SINCE THIS CAN CAUSE A LOCK-OUT.
Each oven has the same capacity, (able to t a 13kg (28lb)
turkey) and the traditional AGA heat-storage cooker
techniques can be used, such as stacking saucepans in
the simmering oven. This enables the steaming of root
vegetables, rice, steamed pudding, casserole, poaching fruit
all in the same oven leaving the hotplate free.
You can have one or two ovens on at their pre-set heat.
The ovens are made from cast iron, which cooks by a radiant
heat and this is the secret of the cooking excellence for which
the AGA cooker is renowned. An indirect radiant heat does
not dry food out, so it retains its natural moisture and avour.

4. AGA accessories
To get the very best performance from your range we
recommend AGA saucepans with the thick tri-core bases and
stacking lids so that the maximum use of oven space is made
and an AGA kettle for boiling water. AGA Accessories can be
viewed at your AGA Specialist or online at www.agacookshop.

Getting to know your AGA
If you have not already seen a demonstration, ask your AGA
Specialist for details. A demonstration will show you how
to get the best from your new AGA and will give you hints
and tips. You will also see a selection of AGA utensils and
accessories being used.
Large Size Roasting Tin with Grill Rack (Fig. 4.1)
This is designed to slide onto the oven runners without the
need for it to sit on an oven grid shelf. The roasting tin can be
used with the grill rack, in its high position, for grilling at the
top of the roasting oven. It can be used for roasting meat, or
poultry with or without the grill rack. Large quantities of roast
potatoes can be cooked in this tin. The roasting tin can also
be employed for making large traybakes or cakes. The grill
rack is useful on its own as a cake cooling rack. Can be used in
any oven but not recommended for hotplate use.
Half Size Roasting Tin and Grill Rack (Fig. 4.2)
This tin can be slid onto the oven runners width-ways or can
sit on an oven grid shelf. The half size roasting tin can be
used with the grill rack, in its high position, for grilling at the
top of the roasting oven. It can be used for roasting smaller
joints of meat, or poultry with or without the grill rack. Roast
potatoes can be cooked in this tin. The roasting tin can also
be employed for making traybakes or cakes. The grill rack is
useful on its own as a cake cooling rack. Can be used in any
oven but not recommended for hotplate use.
2 Floor Grid (Fig. 4.3)
This grid is used on the oor of the ovens, in particular the
roasting and simmering ovens to protect food needing over
30 minutes cooking from the intensity of the heat from the
base element.
2 Oven Grid Shelves (Fig. 4.4)
These are for inserting in each oven to provide a surface for
dishes and tins which do not t direct onto the oven runners.
They can be used in any oven, as required.

Fig. 4.5
1 Cold Plain Shelf (Fig. 4.5)
This has two uses one as large baking sheet for scones,
biscuits, pastry items and meringues and the other use as a
heat deector to cut o the top heat if food is overbrowning
before it is cooked through.
DO NOT STORE IN THE OVENS WHEN NOT IN USE.
Toaster (Fig. 4.6)
This is for toasting bread on the boiling plate. AGA toast is
renowned for its excellence, crisp on the outside and soft in
the centre. Take thick slices of bread and place in the AGA
toaster - if the bread is very moist or very fresh, heat the
toaster beforehand to prevent sticking - lift the boiling plate
insulated cover and place the toaster direct onto the plate
with the handle at an angle from the handle of the cover.
Close the cover and wait for the bread to toast one side this will take 1-2 minutes dependent upon the variety of
bread - open the cover and turn the toaster over and repeat
the process to toast the other side. The toaster can also be
used for heating pitta bread, toasting teacakes and as a cake
cooling rack.
Wire Brush (Fig. 4.7)
This is for cleaning the raw cast iron surfaces, keeping them
clear of crumbs and burnt on debris – which would otherwise
aect the boiling performance of pans and the kettle. Use
on the hotplates and the ovens. Take care not to touch the
enamel surfaces as the wire brush will scratch the nish.
Resting plate lifting tool (Fig. 4.8)
To aid removal of the cast iron resting plates for cleaning.

Baking oven setting
The oven is indirectly heated by two elements, one in the
base of the oven and the other in the roof. These elements
heat the air and the cast iron within to provide cooking
results consistent with traditional AGA heat storage cookers,
with the exibility of being able to turn it o when not in use.
This setting is a moderate heat, so is ideal for cakes, biscuits,
also anything that requires medium heat cooking such as sh
pie, lasagne, soués, crumble and roulades. Meat and poultry
can be cooked here indeed most things that can be cooked
on the roasting oven setting can be cooked on the baking
oven setting but for a longer time.
For the best results when cooking cakes do allow at least the
one hour heat up time. Cook cakes together on one shelf. If
two shelves are used interchange the food to achieve even
colouration, as you would with any oven which is zoned heat.
As with the roasting oven setting, the specially designed
roasting tins and bakeware slide directly onto the runners,
so almost every available square centimetre of space can be
used. Food can be protected by the use of the cold plain shelf
or shielded by means of the large roasting tin, which means
that you can cook food that requires dierent temperatures
at the same time. If food is browning too quickly and you do
not want to move it to another oven just slide the cold plain
shelf over the food to reduce the heat.
NOTE: When baking it is always best to start from cold,
otherwise if baking after using the roasting setting the oven
will take a considerable amount of time to cool.
NOTE: Always remove the cold plain shelf and roasting tins
on completion of cooking, if left in the oven it will aect the
oven temperature.
Roasting oven setting
The roasting oven setting is indirectly heated by two
elements, one in the base of the oven and the other in the
roof. These elements heat the air and the cast iron within to
provide cooking results consistent with the traditional AGA
heat-storage cooker, with the exibility of being able to turn
the o when not in use.
The roasting oven setting can be used for ‘grilling’ at the top
and ‘shallow frying’ on the oven oor.
When cooking on the base of the roasting oven, place the
oor grid on the base before putting the food into the oven.
This lifts the food away from the base element to ensure best
cooking results are achieved.
The roasting oven setting is zoned in heat, meaning it is
slightly hotter towards the top than the centre and the oven
grid shelf set on the oven oor is slightly less hot than the
centre.
The base of the oven can be used as another cooking surface,
indeed it is often called a hidden hotplate use the oor grid
for protection so food does not overbrown.
The beauty of the roasting oven setting is that any fat is burnt
o when the oven is at full heat, just brush out occasionally to
remove the carbon deposits.
The roasting oven setting is excellent for bread and pastries.
Quiches in ceramic or pies in Pyrex dishes need not be baked
blind as when they are in placed on the oor grid on the base
of the oven the pastry cooks from underneath and the lling
will set and brown from the all-round heat. As you are aware
metal at tins conduct heat quicker than ceramic may need
less cooking time.
The specially designed roasting tins and bakeware slide
directly onto the runners, so almost every available square
centimetre of space can be used. Food can be protected
by the use of the cold plain shelf or shielded by means of
the large roasting tin which means you can cook food that
requires dierent temperatures at the same time. If food is
browning too quickly and you do not want to move it to
another oven just slide the cold plain shelf over the food to
reduce the top heat.
Page 14
10
Simmering oven
The simmering oven is indirectly heated by one element in
the base of the oven.
This element heats the air and the cast iron within it to
provide cooking results consistent with the traditional
simmering oven of the traditional AGA heat-storage cooker,
with the exibility of being able to turn it o when not
required.
The oor grid is used here to protect items placed on the base
of the oven such as vegetables for steaming, keeping sauces
warm or casseroles cooked for a long time. Always ensure this
is in place, before putting food into the oven.
The simmering oven can be described as a continuation oven,
it continues to cook food that has been brought up to heat
elsewhere on the cooker with the exception of meringues
which are dried out rather than ‘cooked’.
User Guidance
• Allow the oven to heat fully, the longer the oven is on
the better, we recommend one hour.
• To get the very best performance, we recommend to
use AGA cookware with thick bases and stacking lids.
• DO NOT place dishes directly on to the oven base.
Always place onto either a shelf or the floor grid.
• Joints of meat and poultry should be brought up to heat
ideally on the roasting oven setting for 30-45 minutes,
then transfered to the simmering oven.
• This method is unsuitable for stuffed meat and stuffed
poultry).
• Make sure that pork and poultry reach an internal
temperature of at least 75°C.
• Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil
before putting in the simmering oven.
• Always thaw frozen food completely before cooking.
• Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small pieces.
• Adjust seasoning and thickenings at the end of the
cooking time.
• Many dried pulses and beans for example, dried red
kidney beans must be boiled for a minimum of 10
minutes, after soaking, and before inclusion in any dish.

Always SWITCH OFF at mains before cleaning.
DO NOT use a steam cleaner to clean this cooker.
When cleaning use as little water as possible.
DO NOT use abrasive pads, oven cleaner or cleaners
containing citric acid on enamelled surfaces.
7. Cleaning & Caring for your Cooker
Enamelled Top and Front Plate
The easiest way to clean the AGA top plate and front plate is
to mop up spills as they happen. VEA approved AGA Enamel
Cleaner can be purchased at www.agacookshop.co.uk.
Baked on food is more dicult to clean but can usually be
removed with proprietary vitreous enamel cleaners or mild
cream cleaners using a cloth, or if necessary, a nylon scouring
pad.
If milk or fruit juice, or anything containing acid is spilt on the
enamel, wipe o immediately.
Clean o any condensation streaks on the front plate around
the oven doors or the vitreous enamel maybe permanently
discoloured.
All that is usually needed to keep the vitreous enamelled
surfaces of your cooker bright and clean is a daily rub over
with a damp, soapy cloth followed immediately with a clean,
dry cloth to avoid streaks.
Remember the top plate will scratch if pans or utensils are
dragged across them.
The Ovens
The fan oven is tted with a back panel which is of self
cleaning enamel and should not be scoured.
All of the remaining surfaces of both ovens are vitreous
enamelled and can be cleaned with proprietary vitreous
enamel cleaners approved by the Vitreous Enamel
Association.
The shelves can be removed and if necessary the shelf
supports may also be removed by taking out the screws.
These items may be washed in the sink with normal oven
cleaners, you may use a ne wool soap pad for removing
stubborn stains from the oven bases and shelf supports.
NOTE: Take care not to damage the thermostat
phials in the ovens when cleaning.
Heat Clean Enamel
Fan oven - back panel only
This special enamel has a continuous cleaning action, which
works best if a pattern of low and high temperature cooking
is followed. By using low temperature roasting, excessive
fat splashes can be avoided. Should any excessive staining
occur, immediately clean the area with hot water containing
detergent, and a nylon washing-up brush. Resistant stains
require the oven to be run at 210°C for 2 hours.
DO NOT use any cleaning materials which may clog the
pores of the special coating e.g. pastes and powders,
soap lled pads, spray cleaners, brush-on oven cleaners,
caustic solutions, metal scrapers/knives, and prevent the
cleaning action.
Page 18
14
Door Liners
May be cleaned with a cream cleaner or soap impregnated
pad.
Lift o the oven doors to allow them to cool a little before
cleaning. DO NOT, however, immerse the doors in water
as they are packed with insulating material which will be
damaged by excessive moisture.
Controls
The enamelled surface under the knobs can be treated as in
the Section ‘Door Liners’. Avoid the use of excessive water.
DO NOT use oven cleaners, scouring pads and abrasive
powder for cleaning the plastic knobs. A wipe with a damp
cloth should be sucient.
TIP: Clean your Module regularly, Preferably every time you
use it.
IMPORTANT: AGA recommend Vitreous Enamel Association
approved cleaners for cleaning the vitreous enamelled
surfaces of this product.
Accessories
Oven furniture such as Roasting Tins, Solid Plain
Shelves, Grid Shelves, and Grill Racks should be
cleaned in hot soapy water, soak if necessary, a
nylon scouring pad can be used.

Clearances for overhead cupboards - Fig. 12.1.
NOTE: When surveying for a appliance installation the actual clearance required for the ‘body’ of the appliance should be
increased overall by 10 mm (⁄) beyond the gures quote above. This allows safe margin to take into account the natural
dimensional variations found in major castings in particular the width across an appliance recess could be critical.

Side Clearances
If you are installing the appliance in a new kitchen or have
the opportunity to set the width between kitchen units, it
is advisable to include an additional small gap each side of
3mm to assist with installation and prevent damage when
moving the product.
A 6mm additional width clearance should also be provided if
the appliance is to go into a brick recess, to allow for the wall
being out of square.
Where it is installed against a side wall protruding in the front
of the appliance a 116mm clearance is required on the left
hand side for the oven door access.
Any side wall above the appliance on either side shall not be
less than 60mm horizontally from the appliance (Fig. 12.1).
Surfaces over the top of the appliance must not be closer
than 650mm.
The vent slot in the back of the top plate must not be
obstructed.
Fitting into a 60cm gap
If you are restricted to a 60cm width space, the AGA 60 will t,
subject to the following guide (Fig. 12.2).
The appliance top plate casting width tapers outwards at its
bottom edge. Consequently adjacent cupboard units should
have a maximum depth of 595mm (including doors). If they
are deeper, bring the appliance forward.
The thickness of adjacent worktops should not exceed 45mm.
Appliance Base or Hearth
It is essential that the base or hearth on which the appliance
stands should be level and be capable of supporting the total
weight of the appliance.
The front plinth cover is removable and must not be
obstructed by ooring or tiles. If necessary the appliance
must be raised by the thickness of the tiles to ensure the
plinth can be removed, and the appliance can be rolled out
for service.
Tiling
When the appliance is to stand in a recess or against a wall
which is to be tiled, in no circumstances should the tiles
overlap the appliance top plate, access to remove the top
plate must be allowed for servicing at a later date.
Option Pre-heat Timer Kit (AE4M231659)
If the optional pre-heat timer kit is tted allowances must be
made for timer location and the cable between the timer and
appliance. Timer cable is 4 metres.

Combustible Rear Walls
Since this appliance can be used continuously, please take
note of the IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS.
Where the rear wall is constructed of combustible materials
(such as all-timber or stud wall partitions and batoned
plasterboard) these will require special wall heat protection
measures.
Non-combustible insulation board as a protective cladding
can be used behind the appliance of at least 15mm thick,
such as Monolux or equivalent. This should be taken up to
hotplate level (Fig. 12.3).
Alternatively the cooker can be spaced away from the wall to
create an air gap, using the 25mm spacer brackets supplied
with the cooker (Fig. 12.4).

The air gap must be left open and NOT blocked o across the
top edge (Fig. 12.5).
SPECIAL NOTE: Ensure that unprotected electric cabling
or plastic services do not pass within or on the outside of
the wall behind or directly above the appliance. This type of
material can age prematurely when exposed to continuous
higher temperature.
Other Clearances
A minimum clearance of 60mm is required above the raised
insulating cover handle.
A minimum clearance of 1000mm must be available at the
front of the appliance to enable it to be serviced.
