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.
10
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.
12
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).
13
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.
14
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.
15
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.
16
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.
