Range Hoods and Oven Venting General Advice
10
The use of a gas cooking range results in the production
of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed.
Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated, keep the
natural ventilation holes open or install a range hood.
It is recommended that this AGA is fitted with a range
hood above it. The AGA venting system is located on
top of the AGA and is designed for venting the moisture
from the ovens. The range hood should be positioned
not less than the minimum height as recommended by
the manufacturer, from the top of the AGA.
The AGA City24 ovens are manufactured from cast
iron, over a period of time they will become individually
seasoned. However, the ovens will rust if high moisture
content foods are not covered (especially in the slow
cook oven) or spillages are not cleaned up.
It is also not advisable to leave a full or partially filled
saucepan/utensils with high moisture content food in the
ovens when they are not in use.
To season the ovens a light vegetable oil is ideal (corn
oil is best). A spray oil is recommended. Any stubborn
stains can be removed with the wire brush supplied.
Please refer to Page 21, for Cleaning of Ovens.
Food SHOULD NOT be placed into any oven until the
oven is up to normal operating heat.
The oven doors should not be left open for long periods
of time during cooking and heating up.
Store the cold plain shelf outside the range. Use it cold
in the roasting oven to deflect heat from the top of the
oven, creating a more moderate oven temperature
underneath. It can also be used as a baking sheet.
Warm up times
As the AGA works on the principle of storing heat, time
is required to gather that heat from the electric elements
to saturate the castings. We recommend to allow an
hour heat up time. The optional programmer is a great
asset as it can be set to get the top of the oven to its
working heat, ready for you to cook when you walk
through the door.
The principle of heat storage means that the ovens are
at a pre-set heat, the cooking areas are named after
their function rather than temperatures.
Using the Zones of the
AGA City24
The different zones of the AGA City24 range are
described individually, in the following pages.
The traditional AGA heat storage range is famous for the
gentle warmth it emits, with the AGA City24 you will get
warmth only when the cooker is on or warmth to a lesser
degree when only parts of it are on.
