THE AGA COOKER The appliance is a heat storage cooker with a 13 amp element which will keep the temperature of the cooker constant when not in use and return it to constant temperature after use, or in accordance with preset AIMS programme. The AGA is also supplied with the following accessories: 1 Large roasting tin with grill rack 1 Half size roasting tin with grill rack 2 Oven grid shelves 1 Plain shelf 1 Toaster 1 AGA book 1 Wire brush A full description of cooking with the AGA is given in the AGA book.
OPERATING THE AGA Controls:- located behind the top left hand door Fig. 14 DESN 515283 Switch on the AGA’s electricity supply. Turn the right hand control knob from the OFF setting to the Normal manual control setting.The cooker will heat up until it reaches its Normal operating temperature which is set by the temperature control knob. (Turn clockwise to increase temperature). To obtain the required Normal roasting oven temperature, the control knob will need to be set just above halfway.
We recommend that the cooker is run on the Normal manual setting for two days. During cooking the indicator will drop back below the band. This is normal and the heat will be automatically restored, this could take up to 2 hours depending on the amount of use. Also during AIMS ‘LOW’ and ‘SLUMBER’ setting, the indicator will drop back outside of the black band. After the AGA has been Installed When first switched on, the AGA will emit an odour for a short while.

(Refer to Fig. 14) REMEMBER: SWITCH THE FAN OFF WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED COOKING.
AIMS CONTROL HANDSET What is AIMS? The AIMS program is flexible. In short, it means the AGA can sleep when you sleep and only operate at normal when you need it. The technology is simple to use and can result in significant fuel savings. The AIMS program can be pre-set, with one or two active periods each day.
NOTE: If the AIMS handset is unused for an extended period of time, the display screen will automatically turn off to conserve battery power. REMEMBER: The handset is designed to be operated within the kitchen area. Press firmly any button to turn the display back on, and the Information (Main Menu) screen is automatically displayed. The AIMS Controller handset has four display screens:1. The Information (Main Menu) screen 2. The Date/Time Setting screen 3. The AIMS Programme screen 4.
