Using the hotplates

Important

If the surface is cracked or fractured, the hob

must not be used. The hob should be

switched off at the mains supply and AEG

Service Department called immediately.

■ After switching on the hob you will hear a

faint hum. Do not be concerned. This noise

is simply a feature of the radiant heating

system and does not effect the operation of

the hob.

■ Your hob has four heat residual warning

lights - these remain “lit” even when the

cooking zone has been switched off, so

long as the temperature of the ceramic

surface is still dangerously high. The light

goes out only when the temperature has

.fallen to a safe level.

Do not leave articles standing on the hob.

Do not prepare dishes in aluminium foil or

plastic containers on heated cooking zones.

Keep the hotplates clean at all times - dirty

plates waste energy and could result in

permanent discolouration of the glass.

Take advantage of the residual heat: turn

the hotplates off 5-10 minutes before the

end of the cooking time.

Operation of the hotplates

General

The hotplate is OFF when the “0” is next to the

dot.

The output can be varied by turning the control

knobs clockwise or anticlockwise.
