General Information - AGA COMPANION Owner's Manual

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.
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 gas 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 a Qualified
Engineer, from an authorised distributor.
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.
Your appliance has a gas hob, electric grill and two electric ovens. The upper oven is an electric
conventional oven with zoned heating, an electric grill is also incorporated in the roof of the oven.
The lower oven has an electric fan.The fan behind the rear panel ensures an even distribution
of heat within the cavity during cooking, ie temperature at lowest shelf position is the same as
the temperature at the highest shelf position.
Refer to the diagram (See Fig. 4) to familiarise yourself with the product and refer to the relevant
sections for upper oven, lower oven, grill, gas hotplate, etc.
The appliance, is fitted with a cooling fan, which functions during the use of the grill or top oven
(occasionally with the lower oven). The fan will continue to run after the grill/oven has been
