As responsible manufacturers we take care to make sure
that our products are designed and constructed to meet the
required safety standards when properly installed and used.
Your AGA is an oil-fired, heat-storage cooker. The burner
operates at either high or low fire and is controlled by the
cooker thermostat which is linked to the oil control box.
In the event of a power failure the burner will automatically
continue to operate on low fire. Should there be a prolonged
power cut the burner can be operated under manual control.
However, for the most effective operation of the cooker the
following points should be carefully observed:
1. Close the insulating lids whenever the hotplates are not
in use.
2. Clean the hotplates regularly with the wire brush.
3. Utensils with ground flat bases must be used to make
perfect contact with the hotplates.
4. Have the cooker serviced at regular intervals a
competent service engineer such as OFTEC approved.
5.
Take care, when closing the oven doors, to lift them
onto the catch.
Refer to the diagram in the

IMPORTANT NOTICE: PLEASE READ THE
ACCOMPANYING WARRANTY.
Any alteration that is not approved by AGA could invalidate
the approval of the appliance, operation of the warranty and
could affect your statutory rights.
In the interests of safety and effective use, please read the
following before using your new AGA appliance.
The use of a oil-fired cooking appliance results in the
production of heat and moisture in the room in which
it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated:
keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for
additional ventilation, for example, opening of a window, or
more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of
mechanical ventilation where present.
Installation must be to local and national wiring regulations
and carried out by an approved Aga engineer. Approved Aga
engineers have been factory trained and always use genuine
Aga spares
A little smoke and some odour may be emitted when first
switched on. This is normal and harmless (from oven lagging
and starch binder on the element insulation) and will cease
after a short period of use.
