cookware.
• To prevent overheating and improve the
performance of the zones, the cookware
must be as thick and flat as possible.
• Ensure cookware bases are clean and dry
before placing on the hob surface.
• Always be careful no to slide or rub the
cookware on the edges and corners of the
glass or the side trim as it may chip or
damage the glass surface.
Cookware material
• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,
stainless steel, multi-layer bottom (with a
correct marking from a manufacturer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is suitable for an induction hob
if:
• water boils very quickly on a zone set to
the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
Cookware dimensions
• Induction cooking zones adapt to the
dimension of the bottom of the cookware
automatically. Refer to "Technical data" >
"Cooking zones specification" for correct
cookware dimensions. Place the cookware
in the centre of the selected cooking zone.
• The efficiency of a cooking zone is related
to the diameter of the cookware. For
optimal heat transfer use cookware with
bottom diameter similar to the size of the
cooking zone (i.e. the maximum cookware
diameter value in "Technical data" >
"Cooking zones specification").
– Cookware with a diameter smaller
than the size of a given cooking zone
receives only part of the power
generated by the cooking zone which
results in slower heating.
– For both safety reasons and optimal
cooking results, do not use cookware
larger than indicated in "Cooking
zones specification". Avoid keeping
cookware close to the control panel
during the cooking session. This might
impact the functioning of the control
ENGLISH 17
panel or accidentally activate hob
functions.
Refer to "Technical data".
7.2 Noises during operation
The noises are normal and do not
indicate any malfunction. Cookware
noises may vary depending on the
cookware material and the power level.
Cookware-related noises:
• cracking noise: cookware is made of
different materials (a sandwich
construction).
• whistling sound: you use a cooking zone
with a high power level and the cookware
is made of different materials (a sandwich
construction).
• humming: you use a high power level.
Hob-related noises:
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
• rhythmic sound: cookware is detected.
7.3 Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the cooking
zone deactivates before the count down timer
sounds. The difference in the operation time
depends on the heat setting level and the
length of the cooking operation.
7.4 Simplified cooking guide
The correlation between the heat setting of a
zone and its consumption of power is not
linear. When you increase the heat setting, it
is not proportional to the increase of the
consumption of power. It means that a
cooking zone with the medium heat setting
uses less than a half of its power.
The data in the table is for guidance only.

7.5 Hints and tips for Hob²Hood
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 control panel.
• Do not interrupt the signal between the
hob and the hood (e.g. with the hand, a
cookware handle or a tall pot). See the
picture.
The hood pictured below is for illustration
purpose only.
Other remotely controlled appliances
may block the signal. Do not use any
such appliances near to the hob while
Hob²Hood is on.
Cooker hoods with the Hob²Hood function
To find the full range of cooker hoods which
work with this function refer to our consumer
website. The AEG cooker hoods that work
with this function must have the symbol

8. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
8.1 General information
• Clean the hob after each use.
• Always use cookware with a clean base.
• For both daily cleaning of the glass
surface and the post-installation cleaning
and removal of any residual glue, use only
a mildly abrasive cleaning milk and an
anti-scratch, delicate sponge. Depending
on the degree of soiling, clean the glass
surface with small circular movements and
moderate pressure. Wipe the glass
surface dry with a microfibre cloth.
ENGLISH 19
WARNING!
Do not use the classic yellow and
green sponge as the aluminium
particles on its hard layer may
damage and discolour the glass.
Using cleaning tools different than the
recommended ones will not be
effective and may damage or
discolour the glass surface.
• Always use a scraper recommended for
hobs with a glass surface. Use the scraper
only as an additional tool for cleaning the
glass after the standard cleaning
procedure.
WARNING!
Do not use knives or any other sharp,
metal tools to clean the glass surface.
• For the metal side trim, use only a
dishwashing detergent with warm water.
Use a cloth to clean and wipe the trim.
WARNING!
Do not use the mildly abrasive
cleaning milk, any polishing
detergents, scrapers, or the hard layer
of a sponge to clean the side trim.
• The gap between the glass surface and
the side trim may gather dirt and small
particles of food. Use a wooden toothpick
to clean the gap between the glass
surface and the side trim.
WARNING!
Do not use any sharp metal tools to
clean the gap as they may widen the
gap and damage the side trim or the
glass surface.
The printing on the flexible induction
cooking area may become dirty or
change its colour as an effect of moving
the cookware. You can clean the area in
the described way.
8.2 Cleaning the glass surface of
the hob
• Remove immediately: melted plastic,
plastic foil, salt, sugar and food with sugar,
otherwise, the dirt can cause damage to
the hob. Take care to avoid burns. Use a
special hob scraper on the glass surface
at an acute angle and move the blade on
the surface.
• Remove when the hob is sufficiently
cool: limescale rings, water rings, fat
stains, shiny metallic discoloration. Clean
the hob with a mildly abrasive cleaning
milk and an anti-scratch, delicate sponge
(see General information). After cleaning,
wipe the hob dry with a microfibre cloth.
• Persistent marks and stains: apply
moderate pressure and scrub the surface
with an anti-scratch, delicate sponge (see
General information) and a mildly abrasive
cleaning milk until the stains are no longer
visible.
