INSTALLATION
Any gas installation must be carried out by a registered CORGI installer, and
in accordance with existing rules and regulations.
The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of this manual.
Please, ensure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily accessible for the
engineer in the event of a breakdown.
WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED
Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective
materials, which were put on in the factory.

Operation
HOB BURNERS
To light a burner, turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to the maximum
position, then push it down to ignite the burner. Upon, ignition, keep the knob
pushed down about 5 seconds, then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, and try again.
Each control knob is equipped with a pilot light which gradually lights up
according to the heat level that you select with the control knob.
When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is quite
normal for the spark generator to be activated automatically.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans with a
flat bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely
keep the liquid simmering.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the
flame will spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to
overheat.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could
easily ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local AEG
Service Force Centre.
6
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must
DISCONNECT the hob from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be removed
more easily than if it is left to cool.
Pan Supports
To keep the pan supports in the correct
position, they are mounted on metal pins
located in the back of the hob. After
cleaning the hob, ensure the pan
supports are properly placed as shown in
the diagram.
The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If
washing them by hand, take care when
drying them as the enamelling process
occasionally leaves rough edges. If
necessary, remove stubborn stains using
a paste cleaner.
The Hob Top
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm
water to which a little wasing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the
following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the following product s are
recommended:
- for stainless steel hobs use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner;
- for other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend.
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.
Wash the burners taps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove
marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated steel
wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to
remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
7
Something Not Working?
If the hob is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before
contacting your local AEG Service Force Centre.
SYMPTOM
SOLUTION

Electrical connections
Any electrical work required to install this hob should be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person, in accordance with the current regulations.
THIS HOB MUST BE EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed.
This hob is designed to be connected to a 230-240V 50HzAC electrical supply.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that
indicated on the hob rating plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom of the
hob. A copy is attached on the back cover of this book.
The hob is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply cord incorporating a 3amp plug
fitted. In the event of having to change the fuse, a 3ampASTA approved (BS 1362)
fuse must be used.
Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, the wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green andYellow
- Earth
- Neutral
- Live
Blue
Brown
1) Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire
to the terminal in the plug which is marked
with the letter 'E' or the earth symbol
or coloured green and yellow.
2) Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug which is marked with
the letter 'N' or coloured black.
FO 0390
3) Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured red.
Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands of wire present and the cord
clamp must be secure over the outer sheath.
In the event of having to change the fuse, a 3amp ASTA approved (BS 1362) fuse
must be used.
A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard.
Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.
17
Instructions for the Installer
Permanent Connection
In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary that you install a double pole
switch between the hob and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3
mm. between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in
compliance with the current electric regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any point.
Ensure that the hob supply cord does not come into contact with surfaces with
temperatures higher than 50 deg. C.
Replacement of the cable
The connection of the voltage cable to the appliance's terminal block is of type "Y".
This means that its replacement requires the specific equipment of a technician.
In this case, only cable types H05RR-F, H05 V2V2-F (T90) or H05 BB-F must be
used. The cable section must be suitable to the voltage and the working temperatu-
re.
The yellow/green earth wire must be approximately 2 cm. longer than the phase
wires.

Instructions for the Installer
A. EARTH CONTINUITY CHECK
Appliance must be electrically disconnected - meter set on Ω (Ohms) x 1 scale and
adjust zero if necessary.
— Test leads from any appliance earth point to earth pin on plug. Resistance should
be less than 0.1 Ω (Ohm), check all earth wires for continuity and all contacts
are clean and tight.
B. INSULATION CHECK
Appliance electrically disconnected, all switches ON.
a) meter set on Ω (Ohms) x 1 scale.
Test leads from L to N in appliance terminal block. If meter reads «0» then there
is a short circuit.
b) meter set on Ω (Ohm) x 100 scale.
Repeat test with leads from L to E. If meter reads less than ∞ (infinity) there is a
fault.
NOTE - Should it be found that the fuse has failed but no fault is indicated - a detailed
continuity check (i.e. by disconnecting and checking each component) is required to trace
the faulty component.
It is possible that a fault could occur as a result of local burning/arcing but no fault could be
found under test. However a detailed visual inspection should reveal evidence of burning
around the fault.
