Fig. 1 DESN 513946 OPERATING THE AGA The following points are intended to help during the period of change-over from a previous cooker. The Aga book and the new user guide video provide a very useful introduction to the cooker. After the Aga has been assembled When first used the Aga will emit an odour for a short while. This is simply due to the protective oil burning off the hotplates.
THE HEAT INDICATOR BLACK too low SILVER RED BLACK LINE correct amount of stored heat too high The heat indicator is above the Roasting Oven door and has three sections: black, silver and red. When the indicator is on or about the black line in the silver section the cooker is at the correct working temperature. The purpose of the heat indicator is to show whether or not the cooker contains the full amount of stored heat when the cooker is in its normal operational mode.
