4.12  Power management
function
• Cooking zones are grouped according to the location and number
of the phases in the hob. See the illustration.
• Each phase has a maximum electricity loading of 3700 W.
• The function divides the power between cooking zones connected to
the same phase.
• The function activates when the total electricity loading of the cooking
zones connected to a single phase
exceeds 3700 W.
• The function decreases the power to the other cooking zones connected to
the same phase.
• The heat setting display of the reduced zones changes between twolevels.4.13  Hob²Hood
It is an advanced automatic function
which connects the hob to a special
hood. Both the hob and the hood have
an infra — red signal communicator.
Speed of the fan is defined automatically on basis of mode setting and
temperature of the hottest cookware on
the hob. You can also operate the fan
from the hob manually.
For most of the hoods the
remote system is originally
deactivated. Activate it
before you use the function.
For more information refer
to hood user manual.Operating the function automatically
To operate the function automatically set
the automatic mode to H1 – H6. The hob
is originally set to H5. The hood reacts

Refer to Safety chapters.www.aeg.com12               
						

							5.1 CookwareFor induction cooking zones
a strong electro-magnetic
field creates the heat in the
cookware very quickly.Use the induction cooking
zones with correct cookware.
Cookware material
• correct:  cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, the bottom made of multi-layer (with correct mark
from a manufacturer).
• not correct:  aluminium, copper,
brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if:
• some water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick and flat as
possible.
Cookware dimensions
Induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the bottom of the
cookware automatically to some limit.
The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware. The
cookware with a smaller diameter than
the minimum receives only a part of the power generated by the cooking zone.
Refer to “Technical
information” chapter.5.2  The noises during
operation
If you can hear:
• crack noise: cookware is made of different materials (sandwich
construction).
• whistle sound: you use the cooking zone with high power level and the
cookware is made of different
materials (sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power level. • clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to hob malfunction.5.3  Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the
cooking zone deactivates before the count down timer sounds. The differencein the operation time depends on theheat setting level and the length of thecooking operation.
5.4  Examples of cooking
applications
The relation between the heat setting and the cooking zone consumption of
power is not linear. When you increase the heat setting, it is not proportional to
the increase of the cooking zone
consumption of power. It means that the cooking zone with the medium heat
setting uses less than a half of its power.

Hob²Hood function
When you operate the hob with the
function:
• Protect the hood panel from direct sunlight.
• Do not spot halogen light on the hood panel.
• Do not cover the hob panel.
• Do not interrupt the signal between the hob and the hood (for example
with a hand or a cookware handle). See the picture.  Hood in the picture
is only exemplary.It may happen that other
remote controlled
appliances may block the
signal. To avoid it do not
operate the remote of the
appliance and the hob at the
same time.

6.  CARE AND CLEANINGWARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.6.1  General information
• Clean the hob after each use.
• Always use cookware with clean bottom.
• Scratches or dark stains on the surface have no effect on how the hob
operates.
• Use a special cleaner applicable for the surface of the hob.
• Use a special scraper for the glass.
6.2  Cleaning the hob
•Remove immediately:  melted plastic,
plastic foil, sugar and food with sugar.

cool:  limescale rings, water rings, fat
stains, shiny metallic discoloration.
Clean the hob with a moist cloth and
non-abrasive detergent. After
cleaning, wipe the hob dry with a soft
cloth.
• Remove shiny metallic
discoloration:  use a solution of water
with vinegar and clean the glass
surface with a moist cloth.7.  TROUBLESHOOTINGWARNING!
