Using the hob correctly
Practical hints
The burners
To ensure maximum burner
efficiency, you should only use pots and
pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used.
Rapid/Triple Crown Burner
diameter 18-26 cm
Front Semi-rapid Burner
diameter 12-18 cm
Rear Semi-rapid Burner
diameter 12-22 cm
Auxiliary Burner
diameter 8-16 cm
• For easier lighting, proceed before
putting a pan on the pan support.
• Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.
• Take care when frying food in hot
oil or fat, as the overheated
splashes could easily ignite.
• If you use a saucepan which is smaller
than the recommended size, the flame
will spread beyond the bottom of the
vessel, causing the handle to overheat.
• Prolonged cooking with
potstones, earthenware pans or
cast-iron plates is inadvisable.
Also, do not use aluminium foil to
protect the top during use.
• Make sure pots do not protrude over
the edges of the cooktop and that they
are centrally positioned on the rings in
order to obtain lower gas
consumption.
• Do not place unstable or deformed
pots on the rings: they could tip over or
spill their contents, causing accidents.
• Pots must not enter the control zone.
• If the control knobs become difficult to
turn, please contact your local Service
Force Centre.

cleaned with steam or with a
steam cleaning machine.
The burners
" The burner caps and crowns can be
removed for cleaning.
" Wash the burners taps and crowns
using hot soapy water, and remove
marks with a mild paste cleaner. A
well moistened soap impregnated
steel wool pad can be used with
caution, if the marks are particularly
difficult to remove.
" After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry
with a soft cloth.
" Frequently wash the "caps" and the
"crowns" with hot soapy water,
carefully taking away any built-up of
food.
YES
The pan supports
" After cleaning, make sure that the
pan supports are correctly
positioned.
" To make burners work properly,
ensure that pan supports are placed
in a way that the arms are centred
upon the burner as shown in the
picture.
" Pay attention when replacing the
pan supports in order to avoid
damaging the hob top.
NO
The Hob Top
" Regularly wipe over the hob top
using a soft cloth well wrung out in
warm water to which a little wasing
up liquid has been added. Avoid the
use of the following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for
non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
" Should the hob top become heavily
soiled, the following products are
recommended:
- For stainless steel hobs use a

Gas Connection
It is indispensible that the connection
to the gas mains are carried out by
means of an AGB tap. Choose fixed
connections or use a flexible pipe in AGB
(stainless steel).
If using flexible metallic pipes, be
careful they do not come in contact with
mobile parts or they are not squeezed.
Use the same attention when the hob is
combinated with an oven.
This hob can be operated by
Slochteren gas (G25) with a nominal
pressure of 25 mbar or by natural gas
with nominal pressure of 20 mbar. No
regulation is required for use by these
two types of gas. Before fitting the
appliance ensure that the installation has
the correct voltage for the appliance. At
full capacity, the drop in pressure must
electrolux 35
36 electrolux
not exceed 5%. Such a drop in pressure
is caused by the following parameters:
- maximum capacity of meter;
- diameter and lenght of the tube in
front and behind the meter;
- section of transit of variuos tubes
positioned on the circuit;
- diameter of eventual connections.
To ensure a correct operation, a
saving of energy and the long-life of the
appliance, the voltage pressure of the
appliance must correspond to the
recommended values.
The adjustable connection is fixed to
the comprehensive ramp by means of a
threaded nut G 1/2". All the components
shown in the figure have already been
assembled in the factory.
The appliance, before leaving the
factory, has been tested in order to give
you the best results.
Important
When the final connection has been
made, it is essential that a thorough leak
test is carried out on the hob and
installation. Use some soapy water,
never a flame.

!!
• Remove the pan supports.
• Remove the burner's caps and
crowns.
• With a socket spanner 7 unscrew
and remove the injectors (Fig. 1), and
replace them with the ones required
for the type of gas in use.
• Reassemble the parts, following the
same procedure backwards.
• Replace the rating label (placed near
the gas supply pipe) with the relevant
one for the new type of gas supply.
You can find this label in the package
of the injectors supplied with the
appliance.
Should the feeding gas pressure be
different or variable compared with
the required pressure, an
appropriate pressure adjuster must
be fitted on the gas supply pipe, in
compliance with the rules in force.
B. Adjustment of

minimum level
To adjust the minimum level of the
burners, proceed as follows:
• Light the burner.
• Turn the knob on the minimum
position.
• Remove the knob.
• With a thin screwdriver, adjust the
by-pass screw (Fig. 2). If changing
from natural gas to LPG, completely
tighten clockwise the screw, until a
small regular flame is obtained.
• Finally check the flame does not go
out when quickly turning the knob
from the maximum position to the
minimum position.
This procedure can easily be carried
out, anyhow the hob has been
positioned or built in the working top.

Electrical Connection
The appliance is designed to be
connected to 230 V monophase
electricity supply.
The connection must be carried out
in compliance with the laws and
regulations in force.
Before the appliance is connected:
1) check that the main fuse and the
domestic installation can support the
load (see the rating label);
2) check that the power supply is
properly earthed in compliance with the
current rules;
3) check the socket or the double
pole switch used for the electrical
connection can be easily reached with
the appliance built in the forniture unit.
The appliance is supplied with a
connection cable. This has to be
provided with a proper plug, able to
support the load marked on the
identification plate. To connect the plug
to the cable, follow the recommendation
given in Fig. 3a. The plug has to be fitted
in a proper socket.
If connecting the appliance directly
to the electric system, it is necessary
that you install a double pole switch
between the appliance and the
electricity supply, with a minimum gap
of 3 mm. between the switch contacts
and of a type suitable for the required
load in compliance with the current
rules.
The connection cable has to be
placed in order that, in each part, it
cannot reach a temperature 50°C
higher than room temperature.
The brown coloured phase cable
(fitted in the terminal block contact
marked with "L") must always be
connected to the network phase.

10. Appliances that are easy to transport may be delivered or sent to the consu-
mer services department. Home repairs are only anticipated for bulky
appliances or built-in appliances.
11. If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or suspended in such a way that
removing and replacing them in the place where they are fitted takes more than
44 electrolux
half an hour, the costs that result therefrom will be charged for. Connected
damage caused by these removal and replacement operations will be the
responsibility of the user.
12. If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same defect repeatedly is not con-
clusive, or if the repair costs are considered disproportionate, in agreement with
the consumer, the defective appliance may be replaced with another appliance
of the same value.
In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a financial contribution calculated
according to the length of time it has been used.
13. A repair under guarantee does not mean that the normal guarantee period will
be extended nor that a new guarantee period begins.
14. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs, limited to the same defect.
15. Except in the event where liability is legally imposed, this declaration of
guarantee terms excludes any compensation for damage outside the appliance
for which the consumer wishes to assert his rights. In the event of legally
admitted liability, compensation will not exceed the purchase price paid for the
appliance.
These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances purchased and used in
Belgium. For exported appliances, the user must first make sure that they satisfy the
technical conditions (e.g.: voltage, frequency, installation instructions, etc.) for the
country concerned and that they can withstand the local climatic and environmental
conditions. For appliances purchased abroad, the user must first ensure that they meet
the qualifications required in Belgium. Non-essential or requested adjustments are not
covered by the guarantee and are not possible in all cases.
Our consumer services department is always at your disposal, even after the
guarantee period has expired.
