Do you have a question about the AEG NCH74B01AB and is the answer not in the manual?
This document describes an AEG NCH74B01AB hob, which is an induction cooking appliance with an integrated hood system. It is designed for domestic use in an indoor environment and combines cooking and ventilation functions in a single unit.
The hob features four induction cooking zones and an integrated hood. The induction cooking zones generate heat directly in the cookware, ensuring efficient and fast cooking. The hood system is designed to extract cooking fumes and odors, contributing to a cleaner kitchen environment.
The appliance can be activated and deactivated by pressing the On/Off sensor field. Individual cooking zones are controlled via a control bar, allowing users to select desired heat settings from 0 to 9, with an additional PowerBoost function (P) for increased power for a limited time. The hob also includes a pot detection feature that activates cooking zones only when suitable cookware is present and deactivates them if cookware is removed for more than 120 seconds.
The integrated hood offers both automatic and manual operation modes. In automatic mode (AUTO), the fan speed adjusts based on the heat setting of the cooking zones, increasing or decreasing as needed. Manual mode allows users to select from three fan speed levels. A Boost function is available for maximum fan speed to quickly clear large amounts of steam or smoke, operating for a maximum of 8 minutes before reverting to speed level 3. The hood also has an Auto Breeze function that continues to run the fan at a minimum speed for up to 20 minutes after cooking to remove lingering smells.
Timer options include a Count Down Timer, which allows users to set a specific operating duration for a cooking zone, and a Minute Minder, which can be used independently of cooking zones to set a general countdown.
The hob incorporates a Power Management function that distributes available power among active cooking zones, especially when multiple zones are in use and the total power consumption approaches the appliance's limit. This helps protect the house installation fuses by automatically reducing power to some zones if necessary, prioritizing the first selected zone.
The control panel is operated using sensor fields, with displays and indicators providing feedback on active functions. Key usage features include:
Regular maintenance is crucial for the appliance's performance and longevity.
The manual also provides troubleshooting steps for common issues, such as the hob not activating, constant beeping, or the hood fan not working correctly, advising users to check connections, clean the control panel, or contact an authorized service center if problems persist.
