If the appliance is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks
before contacting your local AEG Service Force Centre.
IMPORTANT: If you call out an engineer to a fault caused by incorrect use or
installation, a charge will be made even if the aookuabce is under guarantee.
Problems
The hob doesn’t work.............
The hob gets hot.................
The fuses are constantly blow-
ing.....
The zones make clicking and
other noises
Remedy
Check that the hob is switched on.
Check the HPFI/HFI relay in the
main fuse box. Check the fuses for
the hob.
The hob may get as hot as 60°C.
Possibly, you have too many electri-
cal appliance in use at one go. If
your hob is connected to a 10 Amp
fuse group, there is a high risk of
overload.
During use there will be noise from
the induction coil and the fan. This is
completely normal and has no effect
on cooking performance.
However, some pans can increase the
noise. If the noise becomes a nui-
sance, one option could be to use a
different pan.
At the low heat settings, clicks will
be heard. These occur when the heat
is being switched on and off. This is
completely normal and has no effect
on cooking performance.

High safety levels
The individual zones will only get
hot when a pan with a magnetic base
is placed on them. It is impossible to
turn on an empty zone. When you
remove the pan from a lighted zone,
the zone will turn off even if you do
not switch it off. Remember that
there will still be residual heat in the
ceramic hob. The zone will
remember the last setting for about
20 seconds.
Overheating protection
When a pan is placed on a zone, the
pan will heat up. A sensor under
each zone measures the temperature
of the zone and the pan. If the tem-
perature gets too high, the zone will
automatically switch off.
Quick adjustment
When you turn on a zone, the pan
will become hot very quickly. When
you turn the heat down, the heat
quickly dissipates.
Easy cleaning
Any spills will not burn onto the
ceramic hob as the area to the side
of the pan is not hot.
This makes cleaning
the hob much easier.
Power
The front zone has a facility for
switching in extra heat to give an
even quicker boiling time. When
using Power on the front zone the
rear zone cannot be set at the highest
setting. Information on how to use
Power is given in the Section “How
to use....Power”.
Cooling fan
A fan protects the electronics from
overheating. When you have fin-
ished using the zones, the fan will
continue to run until the electronics
have cooled down.
Electronic control system
The hob has an electronic control
system to ensure precise heat control
of the zones. The electronics have
the following functions:
- Power, extra heat
- AUTOMAX, automatic boiling
- Safety s
witch-off
- Autostop. Automatic turning off
of zones
- Child safety
- Minute minder and timer
