FAQs

What type of cookware is compatible with the AEG Bridge Induction Hob?

You must use cookware with a magnetic base. You can test this by holding a magnet to the bottom of your pans. If the magnet sticks, it is induction compatible.

How do I use the Bridge function?

Place a large pan over two adjacent cooking zones. Press the Bridge button. Adjust the temperature and timer settings, which will apply to both zones.

How do I activate PowerBoost?

Select the cooking zone you want to use. Press the PowerBoost button (usually indicated with a "P" symbol). The hob will then provide an instant burst of heat.

How do I clean the hob?

Allow the hob to cool. Wipe up any spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners and steel wool.

What is Hob2Hood?

Hob2Hood is a feature that automatically controls your compatible cooker hood, adjusting the fan speed based on the heat from your hob. This allows for hands-free operation.

What should I do if the hob is not working properly?

Consult the troubleshooting section of this guide. If the problem persists, disconnect the hob from the power supply and contact AEG customer support or a qualified technician.

Troubleshooting

Hob won't turn on.

Check the power supply. Ensure the hob is correctly plugged in and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. Check the child lock.

Cooking zones not heating.

Ensure you are using induction-compatible cookware. Make sure the pan is centered on the cooking zone. Check the power settings.

Hob is making unusual noises.

Some noises are normal for induction hobs. However, loud or persistent noises may indicate a problem. Consult the user manual or contact customer support.

Touch controls are unresponsive.

Ensure your fingers are dry when using the touch controls. Clean the control panel. Try resetting the hob by turning off the power for a few minutes.
