Operating Instructions
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1 Safety
The safety aspects of this appliance comply with the accepted technical
standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. However, we also
consider it our obligation as a manufacturer to make you aware of the
following safety information.
Electrical Safety
• The new appliance may only be installed and connected up by qualified personnel, according to the manufacturers instructions and to
the relevant country standards.
Please observe this instruction, otherwise the warranty will not cover
any damage that may occur.
• Repairs to the appliance should only be carried out by approved service engineers. Improper repairs can cause injury or significant malfunction. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact your local
AEG Service Force Centre.
• If your appliance malfunctions or fractures and 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 the hob is in use. Therefore,
always keep small children away.
The hob is designed to be operated by adults. Do not allow children to
play near or with the hob
Safety Whilst Using
• This appliance may only be used for boiling and frying food in the
home.
• Take care when connecting electric appliances to sockets nearby.
Connection cables must not be able to touch hot cooking zones.
• Overheated fat and oil will catch fire quickly. You should supervise
cooking when preparing food in fat or oil (e.g. chips).
• Switch off the cooking zones after use.
73
Operating Instructions
Special Notes on Induction Cooking Zones
• Scientific studies have shown that patients who are fitted with
implanted pacemakers are not normally affected or put at risk by our
induction cooking zones.
The distance between the body and the cooking zone should, however, never be less than 30 cm!
• Electromagnetic fields can affect electronic circuits and interfere
with portable transistor radios.
• Do not put magnetically rechargeable objects (e.g., credit cards,
cassettes) on the glass ceramic surface while one or more induction
cooking zones are in use!
• Do not put any metallic objects (e.g., spoons, pan lids) on the induction surface as they can be warmed up when the induction surface is
in use.
Some cookware can produce noises when used on induction cooking
3
zones. This is not a fault in the hob and its function will not be impaired in any way as a result.
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.
74
Operating Instructions
How to Avoid Damaging your Appliance
• Do not use the cooking surface as a work surface or for storage.
• Do not use the cooking zones with empty pots and pans.
• Glass ceramic is insensitive 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 pans with damaged bases that are rough and have burrs.
Scratching may occur when the pans are slid.
• Do not place any pans on the cooking surface frame. Scratching may
occur or the paint damaged.
• Make sure that no acidic liquids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or descaling
agents are spilt onto the frame of the cooking surface, since these
cause matt 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, damage to the surface
may occur on removal.
• 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.
• Avoid boiling pans dry. The bases could be irreparably damaged in the
process and the glass ceramic cooking surface also damaged.

Operating Instructions
2 Disposal
Disposing of Packaging Materials
• All packaging can be recycled, sheet and hard foam parts are appropriately marked. Please dispose of packaging material and any old
appliance with due regard to safety and the environment.
Information on disposal
• The appliance must not be disposed of in the household rubbish.
• You can obtain information about collection dates or public tips from
your local Council or Environmental Health Office.
• Warning! Before disposing of old appliances make them inoperable.
Cut off the mains cable.
Appliance Description
Function and the Way the Induction Cooking Zone Works
A copper wire induction coil is beneath the glass ceramic cooking surface. This generates electromagnetic fields, which act directly on the
base of the pots and pans and not, as with other heating up methods,
first heat up the glass ceramic. This means that the base of the pan is
immediately heated up, which saves time and energy.
Since the heat required for cooking is generated directly in the base of
the pan the cooking zone itself hardly warms up. It only receives the
reflected heat from the pan base.
76
Note:
If there is no pot or pan on the cooking zone there is no energy
transfer (heating up) and therefore gives protection against the
cooking zones being switched on accidentally.
A cooling fan is an integral part of this hob and comes on automati-
3
cally depending on the temperature of the induction cooking zone. The
cooling fan will continue to run for a short period after the cooking
zone has been switched off.

zone has cooled down. This display appears only if the cooking
zone is switched off.
a = Automatic heating-up (possible for all cooking zones)

(remains lit until the automatic feature switches over to the set
continued cooking stage).
- = Lights up when the automatic switch-off function has been
activated (also see “What to do if ...?”).
f = Error display

Operating Instructions
Cooking Zone Safety Switch
1
If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after a certain time or if
the cooking stage is not changed, the corresponding cooking zone
switches itself off automatically.
j appears in the display of the relevant cooking zone.
The cooking zones switch themselves off at:
• Cooking stage 1 - 2 after 6 hours
• Cooking stage 3 - 4 after 5 hours
• Cooking stage 4 - 5 after 4 hours
• Cooking stage 5 - 9 after 1.5 hours
Resetting the Safety Cut-Off
0 To cancel the active safety switch-off function of the relevant cooking
zones, switch off the unit with the “On/Off” sensor field n and then
switch it back on again. The cooking zones are then ready for use again.
h appears in the display of the cooking zone if there is still residual
3
heat.

Operating Instructions
Suitable Kitchenware for Induction Cooking Zones
Pots and Pans
• In principle all pots and pans with magnetic bases are suitable. These
are steel, steel-enamel as well as cast-iron pots and pans.
• High grade steel pans with a mixed metal base (sandwich base, e.g.
Tefal with an aluminium/copper base) are suitable for induction only
if the manufacturer has expressly marked them as such. In that case
they have a ferromagnetic percentage in the base.
• If you wish to use a special type of pan (e.g. a pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc.), please observe the manufacturer's instructions.
• Aluminium, copper, brass, stainless steel pots and pans (unless specifically designated as suitable for induction), glass, ceramic or porcelain are not suitable for induction cooking zones. The cooking zone
reacts as if it were being used without a pot or pan:
Error code f.
Look for the label: Suitable for induction!
Suitability Test
If you are not sure if a pot or pan is suitable for cooking or frying on
the induction cooking zone you can check this as follows:
• Place a pot filled with a little water (3-5 mm filling height) on the
cooking zone.
Switch the cooking zone to full power (switch setting 9).
Caution: The pan base of suitable kitchenware heats up within a
few seconds!
• You can also check this with a magnet. If it remains fixed to the base
the pan is suitable for induction cooking zones.
