    OVEN COOKING GUIDE Cooking Hints Both ovens must be pre-heated until the light extinguishes. The guidelines are for cooking after the oven(s) have reached the desired temperature. Larger items may benefit from being turned. Shelf positions are counted from the top. Put dishes in the centre of the shelf.

In most cases this means that food requires a lower temperature when cooked in this oven, by approximately 10 - 20ºC.

  • Page 17: Cleaning And Care For Your Cooker

    Surfaces that require cleaning are: Enamelled Top and Front Plate The easiest way to clean the Aga top plate and front plate is to mop up spills as they happen. Baked on food is more difficult to clean but can usually be removed with proprietary vitreous enamel cleaners or mild cream cleaners using a cloth, or if necessary, a nylon scouring pad.
  • Page 18 DO NOT use oven cleaners, scouring pads and abrasive powder for cleaning the plastic knobs. A wipe with a damp cloth should be sufficient. TIP: Clean your hob regularly, Preferably every time you use it. IMPORTANT: Aga recommend Vitreous Enamel Association approved cleaners for cleaning the vitreous enamelled surfaces of this product.
  • Page 19: Servicing

    SERVICING In the event of requiring maintenance, call your distributor. Your cooker must only be serviced by a Qualified Engineer from authorised distributor. Do not alter or modify the cooker. Only the spares specified by the manufacturer, (stocked by your dealer) are to be fitted.
