Introduction
Your new AGA City60 gives you everything you love
about the classic AGA cooker, but with the added
convenience of the ability to turn each cooking zone on
and off, as and when you want it.
Made in the heart of Shropshire, your AGA cooker like
the generations of cookers before it, has been
manufactured from cast iron at the Coalbrookdale
Foundry. Traditional iron-making skills combined with
industrial strength elements enable the ovens and
hotplate to heat up rapidly, so you can have them all on,
or just one on, depending on the time of day or the size
of your army.
The cooking excellence of the AGA cooker 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 just better.
So grab a cup of tea, have a read, and prepare to dig
into some of the tastiest dishes you’re ever likely to
make.

A Brief Description - AGA City60
Hotplate
The hotplate has two different heat settings, the boiling
plate setting being the hottest of the two, and the
simmering plate setting at a lower heat.
Boiling Plate Setting
The boiling plate setting is used for making toast, boiling
a kettle, stir-frying and cooking at a higher heat.
Simmering Plate Setting
The simmering plate setting is for slower cooking, such
as sauces, simmering pans and can also be used to
cook directly on for toasted sandwiches, drop scones,
non-fat fried eggs and quesadillas.
Top Oven (Roasting Oven Setting)
The hottest oven setting for high temperature cooking;
pastries, breads, roasting of meat, vegetables and
poultry, grilling at the top of the oven and frying on the
floor grid on the base of the oven. The ovens are vented
into the room, so some cooking smells will be present.
Top Oven (Baking Oven Setting)
A moderate oven setting for cooking cakes and biscuits,
baking fish, lasagne or shepherd’s pie, plus roasting
meat and poultry at a medium heat. Cooking sweet and
savoury together is no problem as the flavours do not
mix.
Simmering Oven
Long, slow cooking in the simmering oven develops
flavours 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.

Equipment supplied with your
AGA City60
Large Size Roasting Tin with Grill 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 grill rack, in its high position, for
grilling at the top of the roasting oven. It can be used for
roasting meat, or poultry with or without the grill rack.
Large quantities of roast potatoes can be cooked in this
tin. The roasting tin can also be employed for making
large traybakes or cakes. The grill 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 Grill 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 grill rack, in its high position, for
grilling at the top of the roasting oven. It can be used for
roasting smaller joints of meat, or poultry with or without
the grill rack. Roast potatoes can be cooked in this tin.
The roasting tin can also be employed for making
traybakes or cakes. The grill rack is useful on its own as
a cake cooling rack. Can be used in any oven but not
recommended for hotplate use.
7
2 Floor Grids
These grids are used on
the base of the ovens, to
protect food from the
heat of the base element.
2 Oven Grid Shelves
These are for inserting in
each oven to provide a
surface for dishes and
tins which do not fit
directly onto the oven
runners. They can be
used in any oven, as
required. See page 17 on
how to locate the oven
shelves correctly.
1 Cold Plain Shelf
This has two uses one
as a large baking sheet
for scones, biscuits,
pastry items and
meringues and the other
use as a heat deflector to
cut off the top heat if
food is overbrowning
before it is cooked
through.
DO NOT STORE IN THE
OVENS WHEN NOT IN
USE.

Wire Brush
This is for cleaning the
raw cast iron surfaces,
keeping them clear of
crumbs and burnt on
debris – which would
otherwise affect the
boiling performance of
pans and the kettle. Use
on the hotplate and the
ovens. Take care not to
touch the enamel
surfaces as the wire
brush will scratch the
finish.
Resting plate lifting tool
To aid removal of the
cast iron resting plates
for cleaning.
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 Utensils and Accessories
To get the very best performance from your cooker
we recommend AGA 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
Specialist or online at www.agacookshop.co.uk
Getting to know your AGA
If you have not already seen a demonstration, ask
your AGA Specialist for details. A 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 utensils and accessories being
used. Please take a look at www.agaliving.com.

How To Use Your AGA City60
9
Getting started
When switching on the AGA cooker for the first few
times, there are two things you may notice, neither of
which should cause concern.
The AGA cooker will emit an odour for a short
while, this is simply due to the protective oil we put
on the hotplate and ovens burning off. Due to the
newness in the first couple of hours, it is advisable
to open the kitchen window while this takes place.
Condensation may occur on the top and front plate
whilst the AGA cooker is heating up, caused by the
insulation lagging and starch binder on the element
insulation drying out. The condensation should be
wiped away as soon as possible to prevent staining
the enamel.
Your AGA City60 has the external appearance of a
classic AGA heat storage enamelled cast iron cooker.
However, it’s flexibility is almost unbounded because in
place of a single heat source each cooking zone has its
own electrically heated cast iron element (s). The
separation of cooking zones, allows a choice of control.
You are able to select only the zones that you want, or
need, to use.

Cooker Hoods and Oven Venting
It is recommended that this AGA is fitted with a cooker
hood above it. The AGA venting system is located on top
of the AGA and is designed for venting the moisture from
the ovens. The cooker hood should be positioned not
less than the minimum height as recommended by the
manufacturer, from the top of the AGA.
The AGA City60 ovens are manufactured from cast iron,
over a period of time they will become individually
seasoned.
However, the ovens will rust if high moisture content
foods are not covered (especially in the simmering oven)
or spillages are not cleaned up.
It is also not advisable to leave a full or partially filled
saucepan/utensils with high moisture content food in the
ovens when they are not in use.
To season the ovens a light vegetable oil is ideal (corn
oil is best), spray oil is recommended. Any stubborn
stains can be removed with the wire brush supplied.
Please refer to Page 18, for Cleaning of Ovens.
Food SHOULD NOT be placed into any oven until it is
up to normal operating heat.
The oven doors should not be left open for long periods
of time during cooking and heating up.
Store the cold plain shelf outside the cooker. Use it cold
in the roasting oven to deflect heat from the top of the
oven, creating a more moderate oven temperature
underneath. It can also be used as a baking sheet.
Warm up times
As the AGA works on the principle of storing heat, time
is required to gather that heat from the electric elements
to saturate the castings. We recommend to allow an
hour heat up time. The optional programmer is a great
asset as it can be set to get the top oven to its working
heat, ready for you to cook when you walk through the
door.
The principle of heat storage means that the ovens and
hotplate are at a pre-set heat, the cooking areas are
named after their function rather than temperatures.
General Advice
10

Using the Zones of the
AGA City60
The different zones of the AGA City60 cooker are
described individually, in the following pages.
The traditional AGA heat storage cooker is famous for
the gentle warmth it emits, with the AGA City60 you will
get warmth only when the cooker is on or warmth to a
lesser degree when only parts of it are on.
The Hotplate
The cast iron hotplate is operated manually and is
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 18.
The boiling plate setting is the hottest with the
simmering plate setting being cooler. It has electric
elements embedded into the cast iron which heat up in
approximately 11 and 8 minutes respectively. The
hotplate can be used completely independently from the
ovens.
The whole hotplate area can be used for cooking and
several pans can be accommodated on the plate at any
one time. The hotplate is set very slightly above the top
plate to minimise scratching as the pans are pulled to
one side to simmer.
The chrome insulated cover is brought down over the
hotplate when it is heating up or not in use. When the
hotplate is ‘ON’ the insulated cover will be warm. We
strongly advise not to put anything such as kettles,
saucepans or baking tins directly onto the insulated
cover because it will show any scratches - invest in a
chef’s pad to protect the surface if the cover is to be
used as a resting place!
Keep the hotplate 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 18.
11
Hotplate Control
To operate the boiling plate setting turn the control knob
to the position and similarly to the for the simmer
plate setting.
The Boiling Plate Setting
The hottest setting, the boiling plate setting 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 saucepans 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 a doddle! Just wash the Splash
Shield in hot soapy water or place in a dishwasher
between two dinner plates.
Please be advised the boiling plate setting is too hot to
cook food directly on it.
The Simmering Plate Setting
The simmering plate setting is the cooler of the two
settings 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 setting, no need to use the AGA
toaster here.

The Ovens
Your AGA City60 has two ovens which are pre-set at a
different heat, just like the traditional AGA heat storage
cooker. The top oven has two temperature settings one
for the roasting and one for baking.
Top Oven
The Roasting Oven Setting
for high temperature cooking
The Baking Oven Setting
for moderate temperature cooking
The Simmering Oven
for long. slow cooking.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE
DOORS OPEN, SINCE THIS CAN CAUSE A LOCK-
OUT.
Each oven has the same capacity, (able to fit a 13kg
(28lb) turkey) and the traditional AGA heat-storage
cooker techniques can be used, such as stacking
saucepans in the simmering oven. This enables the
steaming of root vegetables, rice, steamed pudding,
casserole, poaching fruit all in the same oven leaving
the hotplate free.
You can have one or two ovens on at their pre-set heat.
The ovens are made from cast iron, which cooks by a
radiant heat and this is the secret of the cooking
excellence for which the AGA cooker is renowned. An
indirect radiant heat does not dry food out, so it retains
its natural moisture and flavour.

The Resting Plates

Fig. 2
DESN 516888
Insert lifting tool in recess at rear of resting plate. Lift up
at rear, the slide out carefully from the side, See Fig. 1.
The resting plates are useful when you wish to move a
pan off boil or to a lower temperature.
Take care when removing and replacing the cast iron
resting plates, as they are heavy. Ensure they are cold
before removing.
Removing resting plates
Replacement of resting plates
Replace resting plates carefully, as shown in Fig. 2.

13
The roasting oven setting is indirectly heated by two
elements, one in the base of the oven and the other in
the roof. These elements heat the air and the cast iron
within to provide cooking results consistent with the
traditional AGA heat-storage cooker, with the flexibility of
being able to turn the off when not in use.
The roasting oven setting can be used for ‘grilling’ at the
top and ‘shallow frying’ on the oven floor.
When cooking on the base of the roasting oven, place
the floor grid on the base before putting the food into the
oven. This lifts the food away from the base element to
ensure best cooking results are achieved.
The roasting oven setting 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 base of the oven can be used as another cooking
surface, indeed it is often called a hidden hotplate use
the floor grid for protection so food does not overbrown.
The beauty of the roasting oven setting is that any fat is
burnt off when the oven is at full heat, just brush out
occasionally to remove the carbon deposits.
The roasting oven setting is excellent for bread and
pastries. Quiches in ceramic or pies in Pyrex dishes
need not be baked blind as when they are in placed on
the floor grid on the base 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 flat tins
conduct heat quicker than ceramic may need less
cooking time.
The Roasting Oven Setting
The specially designed roasting tins and bakeware slide
directly onto the runners, so almost every available
square centimetre 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 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.

14
The oven is indirectly heated by two elements, one in
the base of the oven and the other in the roof. These
elements heat the air and the cast iron within to provide
cooking results consistent with traditional AGA heat
storage cookers, with the flexibility of being able to turn
it off when not in use.
This setting is a moderate heat, so is ideal for cakes,
biscuits, also anything that requires medium heat
cooking such as fish pie, lasagne, soufflés, crumble and
roulades. Meat and poultry can be cooked here indeed
most things that can be cooked on the roasting oven
setting can be cooked on the baking oven setting but for
a longer time.
For the best results when cooking cakes do allow at
least the one hour heat up time. Cook 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 heat.
As with the roasting oven setting, the specially designed
roasting tins and bakeware slide directly onto the
runners, so almost every available square centimetre 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 heat.
NOTE: When baking it is always best to start from
cold, otherwise if baking after using the roasting
setting the oven will take a considerable amount of
time to cool.
NOTE: Always remove the cold plain shelf and
roasting tins on completion of cooking, if left in the
oven it will affect the oven temperature.
The Baking Oven Setting

15
The simmering oven is indirectly heated by one element
in the base of the oven.
This element heats the air and the cast iron within it to
provide cooking results consistent with the traditional
simmering oven of the traditional AGA heat-storage
cooker, with the flexibility of being able to turn it off when
not required.
The floor grid is used here to protect items placed on
the base of the oven such as vegetables for steaming,
keeping sauces warm or casseroles cooked for a long
time. Always ensure this is in place, before putting food
into the oven.
The simmering oven can be described as a continuation
oven, it continues to cook food that has been brought up
to heat elsewhere on the cooker with the exception of
meringues which are dried out rather than ‘cooked’.
The Simmering Oven The Simmering Oven
User Guidance
• Allow the oven to heat fully, the longer the oven is on
the better, we recommend one hour.
• To get the very best performance, we recommend to
use AGA cookware with thick bases and stacking
lids.
• Do not place dishes directly on to the oven base.
Always place onto either a shelf or the floor grid.
• Joints of meat and poultry should be brought up to
heat ideally on the roasting oven setting for 30-45
minutes, then transfered to the simmering oven.
(This method is unsuitable for stuffed meat and
stuffed poultry).
• Make sure that pork and poultry reach an internal
temperature of at least 75°C.
• Always bring soups, casseroles and liquids to the boil
before putting in the simmering oven.
• Always thaw frozen food completely before cooking.
• Root vegetables will cook better if cut into small
pieces.
• Adjust seasoning and thickenings at the end of the
cooking time.
• Many dried pulses 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.

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 cooker, 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 cooker
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.
Resting plates - Can be removed for cleaning as Page
12.
Enamelled cookware
Enamelled roasting tins - supplied with the AGA City60
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 hotplate
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.
Hotplate - is made from cast iron, and is easy to care
for. Regular maintenance will ensure long-life. They will
rust if surface moisture is left on them
Should the hotplate 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 hotplate 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 cover (lid) - this is 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
Specialist.
Lining of the insulated cover (lid interior) - the use of
an AGA splash shield is recommended to keep the lining
free of fat splashes, (obtainable from your AGA
Specialist or on-line at www.agacookshop.co.uk).
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.
