•Upon ignition regulate the flame as
required.
•If after a few attempts the burner does
not ignite, check that the baffle and its
cap are correctly positioned.
•To interrupt the supply of gas, turn the
knob in a clockwise direction to the
position " z ".
During cooking, when using fats
or oils, take particular care as
they can, when over-heated,
self-ignite.

In the absence of electricity,
ignition can occur without the
electrical device; in this case
approach the burner with a flame,
push the relevant knob down and
turn it anti-clockwise until it
reaches the "maximum" position.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency,
you should only use pots and pans with
a flat bottom fitting the size of the burner
used (see table).

Recommended pottery
Remember that a wide-bottomed pan
allows a faster cooking than a narrow
one. Always use pots which properly fit
what you have to cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans are
not too small for liquids, since these
could easily overflow.
Moreover, the pans should not be too
large for a faster cooking. In fact, grease
and juices may spread on the bottom
and burn easily.
It is better to use non-openable moulds
for baking cakes. In fact, an openable
mould lets juices and sugar leak
through, falling on the bottom of the oven
and consequently burning on the bottom
of the baking tray, making cleaning
difficult.
Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the
oven as they are not heat-proof.
You should use oans with the right
diameter to fit the burner, in order to
make the most out of it, thus reducing
gas consumption.
It is also advisable to cover any boiling
casserole and, as soon as the liquid
starts boiling, lower the flame enough
to keep the boiling point.
Pots must not enter the control
zone.
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.

When using the oven for the first
time
Before using the appliance, remove
all packaging, both inside and
outside the appliance, including the
advertising labels and any protective
film..
When using the oven for the first time:
a) Ignite the gas oven burner and set
the gas oven control knob to "8".
b) allow the oven to run empty for
approximately 45 minutes;
c) open a window for ventilation.
During this time, an unpleasant odour
may be emitted. This is absolutely
normal, and is caused by residues of
manufacturing.
Once this operation is carried out, let
the oven cool down, then clean the oven
cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm
soapy water.
This procedure should be repeated with
the grill function for approximately
5-10 minutes.
Before cooking for the first time, carefully
wash the oven accessories.
To open the oven door, always
catch the handle in its central
part.

The oven has four shelf levels, and
is supplied with one shelf.
The shelf positions are counted
from the bottom of the oven as
shown in the diagram.
It is important that the shelf is
correctly positioned.
Do not place cookware directly
on the oven base.
When cooking with the oven or
grill, the cover must be kept
open to avoid overheating.

Shelf supports
Shelf level 2 is fitted with telescopic
shelf supports to allow en easier operation
when inserting or removing the shelves.
1. Pull the right and left hand telescopic
shelf supports completely out, as
shown in the picture.
2. Place the shelf or the grill pan on the
telescopic shelf supports, then gently
push them all inside the oven (see the
picture).
Do not attempt to close the oven
door if the telescopic shelf
supports are not completely
inside the oven. This could
damage the door enamel and
glass.

Condensation and Steam
The oven is supplied with an exclusive
system which produces a natural
circulation of air and the constant
recycling of steam. This system makes
it possible to cook in a steamy
environment and keep the dishes soft
inside and crusty outside. Moreover, the
cooking time and energy consumption
are reduced to a minimum. During
cooking steam may be produced which
can be released when opening the oven
door. This is absolutely normal.
However, always stand back
from the oven when opening
the oven door during cooking or
at the end of it to allow any build
up of steam or heat to release.
When food is heated, it produces
steam in the same way as a
boiling kettle does. When steam
comes in contact of the oven
door glass, it will condense and
produce water droplets.
To reduce condensation, ensure
the oven is well heated before
placing food in the oven cavity.
A short oven pre-heating (about
10 minutes) will then be
necessary before any cooking.
We recommend you to wipe
away condensation after each
use of the appliance.
electrolux 23
For the cooking of cakes
Pre-heat the oven, unless indicated
differently, for at least 10 minutes before
use. Do not open the oven door when
cooking dishes which must raise (e.g.
raised pastries and soufflés); the jet of
cold air would block the raising process.
To check if cakes are cooked, insert a
toothpick into the mixture; if it comes
out clean the cake is ready. Wait until
at least 3/4 of the cooking time has
passed before doing this check.
As a general rule remember that:
a dish which is well-cooked on the
outside but not sufficiently cooked inside
would have required a lower temperature
and longer cooking time. On the
contrary, a “dry” texture would have
required a shorter time and higher
cooking temperature.
For the cooking of meat
Meat to be cooked in the oven should
weigh at least 1 kilo to avoid its becoming
too dry. If you want roasts with a good
colour, use very little oil. If the piece is
lean, use oil or butter or a little of both.
Butter or oil are on the other hand
unnecessary if the piece has a strip of
fat. If the piece has a strip of fat on one
side only, put it in the oven with this side
upwards; when melting the fat will
grease the lower side sufficiently.
Red meat should be removed from the
fridge one hour before cooking otherwise
the sudden change of temperature could
cause it to become tough. A roast,
especially if of red meat, must not be
salted at the beginning of cooking as
salt causes juices and blood to seep
out of the meat, thus preventing the
formation of a well-browned crust.
It is advisable to salt the outside of the
meat after just over half the cooking time.
Place the roast in the oven in a dish
having a low rim; a deep dish shields
heat.
Meat can be placed on an ovenproof dish
or directly on the grill, under which the
dripping pan will be inserted to collect
juice. Ingredients for gravy should only
be put in the dish immediately if cooking
time is brief, otherwise they should be
added during the last half hour.
Begin cooking rare meat at a high
temperature, reducing the temperature
to finish cooking the inside.
The cooking temperature for white meat
can be moderate throughout.
The degree of cooking can be checked
by pressing the meat with a fork; if it
does not give the meat is cooked.
At the end of cooking it is advisable to
wait at least 15 minutes before cutting
the meat in order that the juices are not
lost.
Before serving plates can be kept warm
in the oven at minimum temperature.
For the cooking of fish
Cook small fish from start to finish at a
high temperature. Cook medium-sized
fish initially at a high temperature and
then gradually lower the temperature.
Cook large fish at a moderate
temperature from start to finish.
Check that baked fish is cooked by
gently lifting one side of the gut; the
meat must be white and opaque
throughout, except in the case of
salmon, trout or similar.
24 electrolux
Grilling
The following types of meat are suitable
for grilling. Mostly meat or offal cut in
slices or pieces of various sizes, but not
usually very thick, poultry cut in half and
flattened, fish, some vegetables (e.g.
courgettes, aubergines, tomatoes, etc.),
skewers of meat or fish and seafood.
Meat and fish to be grilled should be
lightly brushed with oil and always
placed on the grill; meat should be salted
upon completion of cooking; whereas
fish should be salted on the inside before
cooking. The grill should be positioned
in the guides nearest or furthest from the
grill element according to the thickness
of the meat, in order to avoid burning the
surface and cooking the inside
insufficiently.
The formation of smoke caused by drops
of juice and fat can be avoided by pouring
1 or 2 glasses of water into the dripping
pan.
The grill can also be used to brown, toast
bread and grill certain types of fruit, such
as bananas, halved grapefruit, slices of
pineapple, apples, etc. Fruit should not
be placed too near the source of heat.
Cooking times
Cooking times can vary according to the
type of food, its consistency and its
volume. It is advisable to watch when
cooking for the first time and check
results since when preparing the same
dishes, in the same conditions, similar
results are obtained.
The cooking tables relating to cooking
in the oven and by grill are provided as a
guide to prepare dishes accoriding to
suggested times.
Experience will show possible variations
to the values set out in the table.
Nevertheless carefully follow the
indications given in the receipe you
intend to follow.
Attention: do not place any utensils
such as dripping pan, cake tins,
casseroles, pyrex dishes, aluminium foil
or other on the base of the oven when
the oven is in use. A stagnation of heat
would result which would compromise
the results of cooking and could damage
the oven enamel.
Suggestions for gas burners
Start your cooking with a big flame by
turning the knob to the symbol . Then
adjust the flame as necessary.
The outside of the flame is much hotter
than its inside (nucleus). Accordingly ,
the top of the flame should lick the
bottom of the pan. Excessive flames
mean a waste of gas.
In contrast with electric grids, gas
burners do not require flat-bottomed
pans: the flames lick the bottom and
spread the heat all over the surface.
No special pans are required for gas
burners. However, thinwalled pans
transmit the heat to the food more
quickly than thick-walled ones.
Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the
pan's bottom, the food may only be
partially heated. Consequently it is
advisable to stir the food many times.
A thick pan bottom prevents partial
overheating as it allows sufficient thermic
compensation.
Avoid very small pans. Wide and shallow
pans are more suitable than narrow and
deep ones as they allow a faster
heating. Cooking is not quickened by
placing narrow pans on wide burners.
The result is just a waste of gas. For a
proper usage, place small pans on small
burners and large pans on large burners.
Remember to cover pans to reduce gas
consumption.
