It is important to know how the hob works, for which reason we would ask you to read these instructions carefully before using it. Only then can we quarantee that "your new kitchen aid" will fully meet your expectations and requirements that you had when you chose your ELECTROLUX system.
Before use: The hot-plates are treated with an anti-rust protection material which must be baked on. This is achieved by turning all the hotplate on full for 3 minuttes without any pots or pans on them.
Sincerely

Important to know
Service and repair may only be performed by the distributor, or by a service organization approved by the distributor. Only repair parts deliverde by the distributor may be used.
Please read the warranty.
Avoid pinching the cable.
The hob unit is intended for ordinary household cooking purposes. Any other use can result in damage to the unit as well as personal injury.
Use only pots and pans with a rigid even contact surface - unever contact surface results not only in poor heat conduction, but also increases the risk of dangerous spills.
During deep-fat frying, sauteèing, the melting of butter, ect., one must always remain near the unit, due to the danger of fire. In the event of fire the unit must be shut off immediately (and the cooker hood as well, if in use).
Make sure that the unit is shut off when not in use - the knob should rest at “0”.
The unit as well as pots and pans become dangerrously hot during use, and remain so for a period of time. They should therfore be treated with
due respect. Keep children at a distance.
Never place plastic or paper, ect., on the unit. If the unit should be switched on by accident, the paper could burn, plastic melt, ect.
For hygienic and safety reasons the unit must be kept clean. Grease, oil and food spills create unpleassant odours when burnt, and can in some cases result in open flames.
Read - and adhere to - the user`s instructions, as well as any instructions and warnings printed on the labels of the cleaning agents used.
Help to avoid accidents; if the hob unit should ever be discarded, render it useless by removing the cable, or by cutting the cable as close to the unit as possible.

Maintenance and cleaning
Use the correct cooking utensils
Extend the life of the hot-plates and use the electricity to maximum effect by using correct, good quality cooking utensils. The cooking utensils should be designated for use on electric cookers. The utensils should have flat bottoms. Ensure theat the hot-plates and the cooking utensils are completely dry before the utensils are placed on the hot-plates.
Cleaning of the operating parts and other surfaces
All surfaces apart from the hot-plates themselves are cleaned normally with warm water containing washingup liquid, liquid Ajax or similar. The hot plates are cleaned as described on page 5.
Never use:
Scouring pads, scouring powder, or other harsh cleaning products on the stainless steel parts
When using
Avoid boiling over. Salt water always causes rust. Use larger saucepans or less water.
6
After use
Daily cleaning is done with a well wrungout cloth. Extra dirty surfaces can be cleaned by using a plastic sponge with a normal cleaning product. After cleaning, the hotplates should be switched on for a moment until they are fully dry. Clean between the bright metal ring and the hot-plate extra carefully. If you use hot-plate covers, both these and the hot-plates should be completely dry before the covers are replaced.
Cleaning of the hot plates
Remove solidified food or other spillage from the plates as soon as possible. A dirty plate reduces the heat transmission between the plate and the cooking utensils.
3. Spillage or stains that remains after the described cleaning (item 1 and
2) can be burnt-off. Clean one plate at a time. 3a. Switch on the plate to maximum heat for 6-8 minutes. For safety reasons only do this when the plate is under control. 3b. Let the plate cool off. Afterwards wipe off the plate with a damp cloth.
If you use hot-plate covers, both these and the hot-plates should be completely dry before the covers are replaced.
1. For normal maintenance, wipe the plates with a damp sponge or cloth. If necessary add some detergent to the water. Subsequently dry the plates by short heat-up.
2. Remove heavily burnt-in spillage with a glass-ceramic scraper, by using the flat blade. Then clean the area with liquid cleaner (ATA, VISS, AJAX, VIM). Rinse the plate with clear water. Dry the plate as described at item 1.

Mounting
The hob unit can be mounted in any type of kitchen with a table surface whose thickness is between 28 mm and 40 mm.
Clearance
The distance between the top side of the tabletop and the carpentry underneath must be at least 45 mm.
Fixing
Screw the fixing brackets out to such an extent that they can be turned in under the table top. Tighten the brackets on to the table top with an ordinary screwdriver.
Cut-out measurements
One rectangular hole is sawn out for the hob combination chosen. The depth of the cut-out for any unit is: 490 mm Length of hole = sum of all units` externally measured lenght, less 20 mm.
Mounting of Reinforcement Beams
A reinforcement Beam, with supporting flanges at each end, is included with each two-burner unit. For unit combinations, a reinforcement beam must be used between each unit. It is not necessary to attach the reinforcement beam to the table surface, as it is held in place by a specially designed moulding, which is incorporated in the hob unit´s flanges.
Minimum distance to wall: 150 mm

Installation of a single unit
When mounting a single unit, be it a half-or full size unit, in a table surface which is thicker than 30 mm, it is necessary to make a special notch in both sides of the cut-out hole, as shown in the adjacent drawing. The purpose of these notches is to create space for the electrical cables.
Glass cover
For units with a glass cover, ensure that the cover always remains open while the unit is operating (operation indicator lamp on).
