Anleitung Zusammenfassung
This ensures that the legal requirements and the connection regulations of your electricity supply authority applicable in your locality are complied with. ■ To maintain the safety of your appliance you should only have repairs, especially on live parts, carried out by a trained electrician. In the event of a fault, you should therefore approach your retailer or our AEG Service Department direct. ■ During cooking, the hotplates become hot. You should therefore keep small children well away. ■ Overheated fats and oils rapidly ignite on hot hobs! Preparation of dishes with fats and oils (eg chipped potatoes) must always be supervised. ■ Please make sure that the connection leads of other appliances (eg small appliances) do not come into contact with the hot hotplates. Important Never use this appliance for heating purposes! This appliance must never be operated without supervision! 6 Using the. hotplates The correct utensils Always use pans with a flat base. Uneven pots and pans do not absorb the heat from the cooking zone properly, thus prolonging cooking times and causing permanent discolouration of the hob. For the same reason you should not use pans which are too small, but ones which are the same size as the cooking zone. Always make sure the pan is placed on top of the cooking zone marks. This is the correct pan. It has a thick, flat base which efficiently absorbs heat from the cooking zone and therefore protects it from overheating. It is larger than the cooking zone and protects it, like an umbrella, from spillage. Do not put wet pans or steaming lids on cooking zones that are not in use. Water and steam inevitably produce calcareous deposits. The more suitable the utensil the more satisfactory the results will be. It is false economy to buy cheap utensils. Good quality utensils save power as they permit lower settings. The important consideration in the quality of the pan in relation to hotplates is the pan base Additional information concerning the Halogen hotplates When using the Halogen plates avoid pans with shiny bases as they reflect the heat. This will result in the plate cycling on and off fairly frequently, extending cooking times. This pan is too small and wastes heat. Moreover, any spillage burns on the hob surface and is then very difficult to remove. Never use pans with a thin, distorted base. They cause the cooking zone to overheat. The ideal pans have thick, flat bottomed bases. and not - as is frequently assumed - the material from which the pan is made. The pan base should be as thick and as flat as possible. Ideal are sandwich bases (triple layer) which conduct the heat best. Hints for cooking on the hotplates ■ The ceramic glass is extremely resistant and strong, capable of withstanding light or moderate impacts without damage - but not unbreakable. Pointed and hard objects falling on the cooking area may damage it. 7 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. Simmering and frying on the hotplates Simmering To heat up, select setting 3 and turn back to 1 for simmering; use the higher or lower setting as required. Control knob Setting Suitable for: 3 Rapid heating of fat and water 2-3 Fast frying of meat, fish 2 Slow frying, making a roux 1-2 Boiling large quantities of food, stews and soups 1 Simmering potatoes, soups 0-1 Simmering vegetables, fish in its own juice 0 Residual heat and OFF position Frying Heat the frying pan on setting 3, then add the food to be fried and turn back to setting 2; use higher or lower settings as required. 8 Operation of the hotplates Roaster plate Switch on the small diameter hotplate (14.5 cm) as described under “Simmering and frying”. The roaster plate is activated by means of touch control CD (figure 4/F). The symbol CD glows with a red control light. The small...
