This document describes the AEG HK955070XB hob, a built-in electric cooking appliance designed for household use. It features five radiant heating cooking zones and a comprehensive control panel for various functions.

Function Description

The hob is operated via a touch-sensitive control panel. Key functions include:

Activating and Deactivating: The hob can be turned on or off by touching the ON/OFF sensor field for 1 second.
Heat Setting: Heat settings from 1 to 14 can be selected by touching or sliding a finger along the control bar.
Automatic Switch Off: This safety feature automatically deactivates the hob if all cooking zones are off, no heat setting is selected after activation, an object is placed on the control panel for more than 10 seconds, or a cooking zone is left operating for an extended period without changes. The deactivation time varies based on the heat setting (e.g., 6 hours for settings 1-3, 1.5 hours for settings 10-14).
Activating and Deactivating Outer Rings: For multi-zone cooking areas, the outer rings can be activated or deactivated to adjust the cooking surface to cookware dimensions. This is done by repeatedly touching the dedicated sensor field until the desired indicator lights up or goes out.
Automatic Heat Up: This function allows for faster heating by initially setting the cooking zone to the highest heat setting for a short period, then reducing it to the selected heat setting. It can only be activated when the cooking zone is cold.
Count Down Timer: This timer allows users to set a specific cooking duration for individual cooking zones (00-99 minutes). Once the time elapses, an acoustic signal sounds, and the cooking zone deactivates.
CountUp Timer: This function monitors and displays the elapsed operating time of a cooking zone.
Minute Minder: This can be used as a standalone timer when cooking zones are not active. An acoustic signal sounds when the set time ends.
STOP+GO Function: This feature sets all active cooking zones to the lowest heat setting, pausing cooking. While active, heat settings cannot be changed.
Lock Function: This allows users to lock the control panel while cooking zones are operating, preventing accidental changes to heat settings. The timer remains active.
Child Safety Device: This function prevents accidental operation of the hob. It can be activated and deactivated through a specific sequence of touches on the control panel.
OffSound Control: This feature allows users to deactivate or activate the acoustic signals of the hob.
Öko Timer (Eco Timer): To save energy, the cooking zone heater deactivates before the count-down timer sounds. The duration of this early deactivation depends on the heat setting and the total cooking time.
OptiHeat Control (3-step Residual Heat Indicator): This indicator shows the level of residual heat in the cooking zones, signaling whether the zone is hot enough to continue cooking, keep food warm, or if there is only residual heat.

- Ensure cookware bottom matches the cooking zone size.
- Use smaller cookware on smaller cooking zones.
- Center cookware on the cooking zone.
- Heat only the necessary amount of water.
- Use lids on cookware whenever possible.
- Utilize residual heat to keep food warm or melt ingredients.
Cooking Examples: The manual provides a table with suggested heat settings, times, and hints for various cooking tasks, from keeping food warm to boiling water and deep-frying.
