Danger! Risk of burns from residual
heat. After being switched off, the
cooking zones need some time to

8 electrolux operating the hob

Operating the hob

You operate the appliance with the
combination appliance’s ring
switches. The operation and the
function of the ring switches is de­scribed in the Operating Instruc­tions for the combination appliance.

When a cooking zone is switched
on, it may hum briefly. This is a char­acteristic of all ceramic glass cook­ing zones and does not impair either
the function or the life of the appli­ance.

Switching the outside ring on and
off

By switching the outside rings on or off,
the effective heating surface can be
matched to the size of the cookware.

Before an outside ring can be
switched on, the inside ring must be
switched on.

Tips on Cooking and Frying

Cookware

• You can recognise good cookware
from the bottoms of the pans. The
bottom should be as thick and flat as
possible.

• Cookware made of enamelled steel
or with aluminium or copper bottoms
can leave discolorations on the glass
ceramic surface which are difficult or
impossible to remove.

Energy saving

Always place cookware on the
cooking zone before it is switched
on.

If possible, always place lids on the
pans.

Switch cooking zones off before the
end of the cooking time, to take ad­vantage of residual heat.

Bottom of pans and cooking zones
should be the same size.
