INCORRECT USE OF THIS RANGE CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCKS OR

INJURY TO PERSONS.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS TO REDUCE THESE RISKS.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or

mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or

instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ALWAYS

Always make sure children are never left alone or unsupervised when the range is on.

Always be aware that range surfaces will be hot during and after use and can cause burns.

Always teach children that the range and utensils can be hot.

Always allow heavy and hot utensils to cool in a safe place and out of reach of small children.

Always be aware hot grease is flammable. Wipe off any grease deposits on the range top and front.

In the event of a grease fire, do not remove the pan, cover the pan to extinguish the flame.

Always turn utensil handles inwards but not cover adjacent heated surfaces, to prevent accidental spillage

and burns.

Always when opening an oven door, allow hot air and steam to escape.

Always use dry pot holders. Moist pot holder will cause steam burns. Do not use towels or other cloths

near the heated plates.

Always clean ventilation hoods frequently. grease should not be allowed to accumulate in hood and filters.

Always make sure cabinet and work surface are capable of supporting heavy cooking utensils used on

your range.

Always make sure cooking utensils are suitable for range top service. Only certain types of glass, glass

ceramic earthenware/glazed utensils with stand sudden temperature changes without breaking.

Always make sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.

Always make sure your appliance is serviced by a qualified technician.

NEVER

Never store items of interest to children above the range.

Never allow children to climb on, sit or stand on any part of the range.

Never allow children to play with the controls or any part of the range.

Never wear loose fitting clothing or other flammable materials that could contact hot surfaces on the range.

Never leave boiling pans unattended, boil over causes smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite.

Never store gasoline or other volatile liquids in the range or in cabinets above or near the range, which can

catch fire or explode.

Never use water on grease fires. Smother fire or flame or use a dry chemical or foam type extinguisher.

Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

Never repair or replace any part of the appliance unless recommended in this manual. All other servicing

should be carried out by a qualified technician.

Never cover or restrict the air flow to the controls compartment.

Never install cabinets (shelves) or similar above the range with a depth greater than 13” (330mm).

Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure build-up may cause the container to burst and cause

injury.

Never reach directly into a hot oven to add or remove cooking utensils. Instead pull the grid shelf out to its

maximum projection.

Never use a steam cleaner to clean your range.

Never use a power spray or oven cleaners on the control panel.

Never use caustic cleaners, abrasive pads or metal scrapers to clean enamel surfaces.

Serial Number

Make a note of your AGA Dual Control Serial Number

when it is being installed. The serial number can be

found behind the magnetic plinth.

Health & Safety

Consumer Protection

As a responsible manufacturer, we take care to make

sure that our products are designed and constructed

to meet the required safety standards when properly

installed and used.

Deep Fat Frying

IMPORTANT

• Use a deep pan.

• Never fill the pan more than one-third full of fat or oil.

• Never use a lid on the pan.

• Important: Oil is a fire risk, do not leave pans

containing oil unattended.

• In the event of a fire, cover the pan with a lid and turn

OFF the appliance.

Smother the flames on the hob preferably with a fire

blanket, rather than attempting to remove the pan to the

outside.

Burns and injuries are caused almost invariably by

picking up the burning pan to carry it outside.

• Do not hang clothes on the left hand side of the

AGA hand-rail. The electrical controls are behind

the top left hand door, blocking the air vent can

cause excessive control temperatures, and will

prevent easy access to the controls.

When the oven(s) are on DO NOT leave any oven

door open for long periods, this will affect the

temperature of the oven and may allow controls to

become hot.

A little smoke and some odor may be emitted

when the range is 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.

Introduction

Made in the heart of Shropshire in the United Kingdom,

your AGA range, like the generations of ranges

before it, has been manufactured from cast iron at the

Coalbrookdale Foundry. Traditional iron-making skills

combined with industrial strength hotplate elements

enable the hotplates to heat up rapidly, so you can have

them both on, or just one on, depending on the time of

day or the size of your family.

The cooking excellence of the AGA range has been

famous since it’s inception in the 1920’s and is

renowned due to the indirect radiant heat that its cast

iron emits rather than just air temperature. And, if you

haven’t found out already, you’ll soon discover that food

that is cooked this way retains its natural flavour and

succulence, and simply just tastes better.

So grab a cup of tea or coffee, have a read and prepare

to dig into some of the tastiest dishes you’re ever likely

to make.

A Brief Description - AGA DC3

The AGA Dual Control has traditional cast iron ovens

with independently controlled hotplates.

Hotplates

The two hotplates are at different temperatures;

the boiling plate being the hottest of the two and

the simmering plate is a lower heat. Each plate is

individually controlled.

Boiling Plate

The boiling plate is used for making toast, boiling a

kettle, stir-frying and cooking at a higher heat.

Simmering Plate

The simmering plate is for slower cooking, such as

sauces, simmering pans and can also be used like a

griddle for toasted sandwiches, drop scones, no-fat fried

eggs and quesadillas.

Simmering plate

Control door

Roasting oven

Baking oven

Slow cook oven

Roasting Oven

The hottest oven for high temperature cooking; pastries,

breads, roasting of meat, vegetables and poultry, broiling

at the top of the oven and frying on the floor.

Baking Oven

A moderate oven for cooking cakes and biscuits, baking

fish, lasagne or shepherds pie, plus roasting meat and

poultry at a medium heat. Cooking sweets and savoury

together is no problem as the flavors do not mix.

Slow Cook Oven

Long, slow cooking in the simmering oven develops

flavors and makes the toughest meat tender. It’s large

capacity means several pans can be stacked here; soup,

casserole, steamed rice, steamed carrots and poached

pears all cooking simultaneously, without any danger of

burning.

NOTE: From cold the roasting, baking or slow cook

ovens will take several hours to achieve normal

operating temperature.

Equipment supplied with your

AGA Dual Control

Large Size Roasting Tin with Broiling Rack

This is designed to slide onto the oven runners without

the need for it to sit on an oven grid shelf. The roasting

tin can be used with the broiling rack, in its high position,

for broiling at the top of the roasting oven. It can be

used for roasting meat, or poultry with or without the

broiling rack. Large quantities of roast potatoes can be

cooked in this tin. The roasting tin can also be used for

making large brownies or cakes. The broiling rack is

useful on its own as a cake cooling rack. Can be used in

any oven but not recommended for hotplate use.

Half Size Roasting Tin and Broiling Rack

This tin can be slid onto the oven runners width-ways or

can sit on an oven grid shelf. The half size roasting tin

can be used with the broiling rack, in its high position,

for broiling at the top of the roasting oven. It can be

used for roasting smaller joints of meat, or poultry with

or without the broiling rack. Roast potatoes can be

cooked in this tin. The roasting tin can also be used for

making brownies or cakes. The broiling rack is useful in

its own as a cake cooling rack. Can be used in any oven

but not recommended for hotplate use.

3 Oven Grid Shelves

These are for inserting in each

oven to provide a surface for dishes

and tins which do not fit direct onto

the oven runners. They can be

used in any oven as required. See

Page 18 on how to locate the oven

shelves correctly.

1 Cold Plain Shelf

It is recommended this shelf

should be kept out of the ovens

when not in use. It has two use’s,

one as a large baking sheet for

scones, biscuits, pastry items and

meringues and the other as a heat

deflector to cut off the top heat if

food is overbrowning before it is

cooked through.

Baking Oven Baffle

A baking oven baffle is positioned

at the top of the oven, in order to

optimize cooking performance. For

best results, please ensure it is in

place at all times, while the oven

is in operation. The Installation

Engineer will fit this in place. This

can also be removed for cleaning.

Wire Brush

This is for cleaning the raw cast iron surfaces, keeping

them clear of crumbs and burnt on debris. Use on the

hotplates and the ovens. Take care not to touch the

enamel surfaces as the wire brush will scratch the finish.

Toaster

This is for toasting bread on the boiling plate. AGA toast

is renowned for its excellence, crisp on the outside and

soft in the centre. Take thick slices of bread and place

in the AGA toaster - if the bread is very moist or very

fresh, heat the toaster beforehand to prevent sticking -

lift the boiling plate insulated cover and place the toaster

direct onto the plate with the handle at an angle from the

handle of the cover.

Close the cover and wait for the bread to toast one

side - this will take 1-2 minutes dependent upon the

variety of bread - open the cover and turn the toaster

over and repeat the process to toast the other side. The

toaster can also be used for heating pitta bread, toasting

teacakes and as a cake cooling rack.

AGA Cookware and Accessories

To get the very best performance from your range

we recommend AGA stainless steel saucepans with

the thick tri-core bases and stacking lids so that the

maximum use of oven space is made and an AGA kettle

for boiling water. AGA Accessories can be viewed at

your AGA Dealer or online at www.aga-ranges.com.

Getting to know your AGA

If you have not already seen a demonstration, contact

AGA Kitchen Concierge or your local AGA Ambassador

for details on (800) 525-5601. A cooking demonstration

will show you how to get the best from your new AGA

and will give you hints and tips. You will also see a

selection of AGA cookware and accessories being used.

Operating the AGA Dual Control

Hotplates control knob

Oven control

knob

Oven heat

indicator

Thermostat Control - Oven

Your AGA Dual Control has three ovens, each of which

has pre-set temperature ranges. They are as follows:

The Roasting Oven

for high temperature cooking 425 ºF - 475 ºF

The Baking Oven

for moderate temperature cooking 325 ºF - 375 ºF

The Slow Cook Oven

for long, slow cooking 225 ºF - 255 ºF

DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE WITH THE

DOORS OPEN.

Each oven has the same capacity, (able to fit a 13kg

(28lb) turkey). The AGA heat storage range techniques

can be used such as stacking of saucepans in the

simmering oven. This enables the steaming of root

vegetables, rice, steamed pudding, casserole, poaching

fruit all in the one oven leaving the hotplates free.

The ovens are made from cast iron, which cook by

radiant heat, and this is the secret of the cooking

excellence for which the AGA range is renowned. An

indirect radiant heat does not dry food out, so it retains

its natural moisture and flavor.

When the ovens are in use the oven control knob should

be in the section.

A second position is available which lowers all oven

heat to reduce energy consumption.

To achieve normal cooking temperature, return the

control knob to section approximately 3 hours before

intended use.

The different zones of the AGA Dual Control range are described in the following pages.

The Heat Indicator

The heat indicator is a guide to the stored heat within the AGA, and does not directly relate to the temperature of the

roasting oven.

An AGA is designed to work at an optimum heat setting by cycling between two fixed temperatures.

The optimum performance is usually achieved when the indicator displays the colour green. For best cooking

performance wait until the AGA contains the full amount of stored heat, which is indicated by the window being

completely filled with the colour green (Fig.1). This may take some time to achieve and can take approximately

2 – 3 hours between use for full recovery.

REMARQUE! À cause du cycle des températures, la bande verte affichera occasionnellement une mesure dans la

section graduée. C’est parfaitement normal (Fig. 2). La cuisson peut débuter pendant la que l’indicateur est dans la

section graduée du cycle, mais ce devrait prendre plus de temps pour obtenir le résultat souhaité.

NOTE! Because of the temperature cycling, the green band will move and display graduated sections at times. This is

perfectly normal (Fig. 2). Cooking can be started during the graduated part of the cycle but it may take longer to achieve

the desired result.

The lower temperature is indicated by the colour amber and cycles in the same way as full power (Fig. 3).

Fig. 1 Full green indicates ‘ready to use’ Fig. 2 Normal movement during cycling

Fig. 3 Amber indicates low

temperature setting.

(Movement will also be

seen with this setting).

The Roasting Oven

The roasting oven can be used for ‘broiling’ at the top

and ‘shallow frying’ on the oven floor.

The roasting oven is zoned in heat, meaning it is slightly

hotter towards the top than the centre and the oven grid

shelf set on the oven floor is slightly less hot than the

centre.

The floor of the oven can be used as another cooking

surface, indeed it is often called the hidden hotplate.

The beauty of the roasting oven is that any fat splashes

are burnt off when the oven is at full heat, just brush out

occasionally to get rid of carbon deposits.

The roasting oven is excellent for bread and pastries.

Quiches in ceramic or pies in Pyrex dishes need not be

baked blind as when they are placed on the floor of the

oven the pastry cooks from underneath and the filling will

set and brown from the all-round heat. As you are aware

metal flan tins conduct heat quicker than ceramic so to

avoid over-base browning, you may need to move them

up the oven.

The specially designed roasting tins and bakeware slide

directly onto the runners, so almost every available

square inch of space can be used. Food can be

protected by the use of the cold plain shelf or shielded

by means of the large roasting tin, which means that you

can cook food that requires different temperatures at the

same time. If food is browning too quickly and you do not

want to move it to another oven just slide the cold plain

shelf over the food to reduce the top heat.

The Baking Oven

This oven is set at a moderate heat, so is ideal for cakes,

biscuits and also anything that requires medium heat

cooking such as fish pie, lasagne, soufflés, crumble and

roulades. Meat and poultry can be cooked here in fact

most things that can be cooked in the roasting oven can be

cooked in the baking oven but for a longer time.

Bake cakes together on one shelf, if two shelves are used

interchange the food to achieve even colouration, as you

would with any oven which is zoned in heat.

As with the roasting oven the specially designed roasting

pans and bakeware slide directly onto the runners, so

almost every available square inch of space can be used.

Food can be protected by the use of the cold plain shelf or

shielded by means of the large roasting pan, which means

that you can cook food that requires different temperatures

at the same time.

If food is browning too quickly and you do not want to move

it to another oven just slide the cold plain shelf over the

food to reduce the top heat.

NOTE: ALWAYS REMOVE THE COLD PLAIN SHELF

AND ROASTING PANS ON COMPLETION OF COOKING.

IF LEFT IN THE OVEN IT WILL AFFECT THE OVEN

TEMPERATURE.

When using the roasting oven for a long period of time i.e.

a full meal, the baking oven temperature may rise, it will

therefore be necessary to adjust the cooking procedure, the

following suggestions may prove useful.

1. When placing the food in the baking oven, ensure the

cold plain shelf is set directly above the dish, for the

whole of the cooking time.

2. In addition it may be necessary to lower the shelf

position.

3. When baking food, such as very rich fruit cakes, which

require a long period of cooking time, place the cake on

the fourth grid shelf position of the oven with the cold

plain shelf set directly above for 3/4 hour approximately.

Move the plain shelf to the middle of the slow cook

oven. Transfer the cake to this shelf and bake until

cooked through.

4. Alternatively, allow the baking oven to cool for

approximately 4 hours before using.

The Slow Cook Oven

The slow cook oven can be described as a continuation

oven, it continues to cook food that has been brought

up to heat elsewhere on the range, with the exception of

meringues, which are dried out rather than ‘cooked’.

User Guidance

• To get the very best performance, we recommend the

use of AGA cookware with thick bases and stacking

lids.

• Joints of meat and poultry should be brought up to

heat ideally in the roasting oven for 30 - 45 minutes,

then transfer to the simmering oven.

• This method is unsuitable for stuffed meat and

poultry.

• Make sure that pork and poultry reach an internal

temperature of at least 167°F (75°C).

• Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil

before putting in the oven.

• Always thaw frozen food completely before cooking.

• Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small

pieces.

• Adjust seasonings and thickenings at the end of the

cooking time.

• Many dried legumes and beans for example, dried

red kidney beans must be boiled for a minimum of 10

minutes, after soaking, and before inclusion in any

dish.

The Top Plate

The top plate is the enamelled surface surrounding the

hotplates. It will become warm when the AGA Dual

Control hotplates are in use. Although it is not a cooking

surface you can use the warmth for a number of useful

activities, which more often than not saves time and

washing-up! These include warming honey or syrup in

the jar, or melting butter or chocolate in a basin - so

saving on melting over a saucepan - but do please put

the basin on a cork mat or folded piece of kitchen towel

to avoid scratching the enamel. Although it is a durable

and hard-wearing surface vitreous enamel is glass and

will show scratch marks!

The top plate when warm can also be used to rest a cup

of coffee or tea or dry off awkwardly shaped tins, peelers

or food mixer and processor parts.

The Hotplates

The hotplates are operated manually.

The boiling plate is on the left hand side and the

simmering plate is on the right hand side of the AGA

Dual Control. The boiling plate is the hottest with the

simmering plate being the cooler of the two. They

both have electric elements embedded into the cast

iron which heat up in approximately 11 and 8 minutes

respectively. The hotplates can be used completely

independently from the ovens and separate from each

other.

The whole hotplate area can be used for cooking and

several pans can be accommodated on a single plate at

any one time. The hotplates are set very slightly above

the top plate to avoid accidental scratching if the pans

are pulled to one side. Do not drag the utensils from one

plate to another as the enamel will suffer!

The stainless steel insulated covers are brought down

over the hotplates when they are not in use. When the

hotplates are ‘on’ the insulated covers will be warm. We

strongly advise not to put anything such as kettles,

saucepans or baking tins directly onto the insulated

covers because it will scratch – invest in a pair of chef’s

pads to protect the surface if the covers are to be used

as resting places!

Keep the hotplates clear of any burnt on food or crumbs

by brushing with the wire brush, supplied with your AGA.

Cleaning details can be found on Page 19.

Hotplate Control

To operate the boiling plate turn the control knob to

position and similarly to the for the simmer plate.

To turn both plates on turn knob to position.

The Boiling Plate

The hottest hotplate, the boiling plate is used for boiling,

grilling, stir-frying, making toast - indeed anything that

requires a high heat. Green vegetables keep their colour

when boiled quickly here, or use a steamer over the

saucepan to cook more than one vegetable at once.

When stir-frying or cooking anything that is inclined to

splash we would recommend using an AGA Splash

Shield which will protect the insulated cover from

splatter, making cleaning easy! Just wash the Splash

Shield in hot soapy water or place in a dishwasher

between two dinner plates.

The Simmering Plate

The simmering plate is the cooler of the two hotplates

and so is used for recipes that require a lower heat such

as, making sauces, scrambling eggs, heating milk, slow

frying, simmering soups and root vegetables. In addition,

it can be used to cook on directly as a form of griddle

- invaluable for toasted sandwiches, quesadillas, drop

scones, searing scallops and even a non-fat fried egg!

Slow cooked toast can be made on the simmering plate,

no need here to use the AGA toaster.

The same size as the boiling plate, the simmering plate

is also machined flat to give the best all-over contact with

the AGA saucepans, grill pan, frying pan and kettle.

Cleaning details can be found on Page 19.

General Advice

When first switched on, the AGA will emit an odour for

a short while. This is simply due to protective oil burning

off the hotplates. Wipe the inside of the lids whilst

the AGA is heating up to avoid a film of this oil being

deposited on the inside.

The following points are intended to help in adapting to

the AGA style of cooking during the change-over from

a previous non-heat storage cooker. The AGA book

provides a very useful introduction to the cooker.

For the most effective operation of the cooker, the

following points should be carefully observed:

1. Close the insulating covers whenever the hotplates

are not in use.

2. Clean the hotplates regularly with the wire brush.

3. Utensils with flat bases must be used to make perfect

contact with the hotplate.

4. Take care when closing the oven doors, to lift them

onto the catch.

5. Cook as much as possible in the ovens so that heat

is conserved and cooking smells and condensation

are reduced.

6. The oven doors should not be left open for long

periods of time during cooking and heating up.

The roasting oven can also be used for ‘broiling’ and

‘shallow frying’ on the oven floor.

l For optimum cooking performance, use the AGA

utensils and cast iron cookware. They have flat bases

which give the best contact with the hotplates.

l The AGA pans can be stacked in the simmering oven.

This is especially useful for steaming vegetables and

keeping sauces warm.

l Store the plain shelf out of the AGA. Use it cold in the

roasting oven to deflect the heat from the top of the

oven, creating a more moderate oven temperature

underneath. It can also be used as a baking sheet.

Caring and cleaning

Enamelled cast iron

Top plate, front plate, oven doors and resting plates

The easiest way to clean the enamelled cast iron

parts is to mop up spills as soon as they happen. It

maybe useful to keep a damp cloth handy to do this.

Baked on food is more difficult to clean but can usually

be removed with the AGA vitreous enamel cleaner

or mild cream cleaners using a damp cloth, or, if

necessary a nylon scouring pad. If milk or fruit juice or

anything containing acid, is spilt on the range, wipe it up

immediately. Clean off any condensation streaks on the

front plate around the oven doors or the vitreous enamel

maybe permanently discoloured.

To keep the vitreous enamel surfaces of the range bright

and clean, a daily rub over with a damp soapy cloth

followed immediately with a clean, dry cloth to avoid

streaks is all that is required. AGA E-cloths are excellent

for this.

Enamelled cookware

Enamelled roasting pans - supplied with the AGA Dual

Control should be cleaned in hot soapy water, soaking

if necessary. A nylon scouring pad can also be used.

They may also be cleaned in the dishwasher, but with

constant use, the enamelled finish will become dull in

appearance.

Cast iron ovens and hotplates

Ovens - are made from cast iron and keep themselves

clean. They are very durable, but will rust if surface

moisture is left on them. Remember to always switch the

ovens on, to dry them out after cleaning.

Heating up the ovens periodically will help burn off any

cooking deposits to aid cleaning within the ovens.

To season the ovens, a light vegetable spray oil (corn

oil is best) is recommended. Any stubborn stains can be

removed with the wire brush supplied.

Hotplates - are made from cast iron, and are easy to

care for. Regular maintenance will ensure long-life. They

will rust if surface moisture is left on them

Should the hotplates become soiled, use a sponge, cloth,

scouring pad or wire brush to remove burnt-on spills.

Rinse off detergents or cleaning agents thoroughly.

Remember to switch on the hotplates for a few minutes

to dry it after cleaning. Every now and then, apply a

thin coating of vegetable oil (corn oil is best) when the

hotplate is cold.

Lids and oven door/lids linings

The top of the insulated covers (lids) - these are

chrome or stainless steel and can be kept clean by

wiping over with a damp cloth and polished up - the

AGA E-cloths are excellent for this purpose as they

are lint-free and eco-friendly. AGA stainless steel and

chrome cleaner are recommended to keep the insulated

cover clean and shining. These can be purchased from

your local AGA retailer.

Lining of the insulated covers (lids interior) - the use

of an AGA splash shield is recommended to keep the

lining free of fat splashes, (obtainable from your AGA

retailer or on-line at www.agamarvel.com).

If the lining is marked it is best cleaned when the

hotplate is cold. It can be cleaned with hot soapy water

and/or a cream cleanser. If badly marked then a soap

impregnated pad can be used - this should be used in a

circular motion.

The first few times a soap impregnated pad is used you

will see the circular marks, these will become reduced

and the surface of the lining becomes shinier each time

when used. Do not use excessive water and make sure

the lining is dry before closing the cover.

Oven door linings - the linings can be cleaned with hot

soapy water, a cream cleanser or soap impregnated

pad. To deep clean the lining place a towel on the work

surface and carefully lift off the oven door (doors are

heavy) and place it enamel side down on the towel

padding. Clean with a soap impregnated pad to remove

stubborn marks. Dry off before replacing on their hinges.
