direct contact with the floor of the
oven.

• When cleaning the oven, proceed

with care: never spray anything onto
the grease filter (if fitted), the heating
elements and the thermostat sensor.

• If is dangerous to make

modifications of any kind to this
appliance or to its specifications.

• During the baking, roasting and

grilling process, the oven window
and the other parts of the appliance
get hot, so children should be kept
away from the appliance. Take care,
if connecting electrical appliances
to sockets near the oven, that
cables do not come into contact with
hot rings or get caught in the oven
door.

• Always use oven gloves to take hot

ovenproof dishes or pots out of the
oven.

• Regular cleaning prevents the

surface material from deteriorating.

• Before cleaning the oven, either turn

the power off or pull the mains plug
out.

Thermostat Control Indicator

The thermostat control indicator will come
on when the thermostat control knob is
turned. The indicator will remain on until
the correct temperature is reached. It will
then cycle on and off to show the tempe­rature is being maintained.

Safety Thermostat

To prevent dangerous overheating
(through incorrect use of the appliance or
defective components), the oven is fitted
with a safety thermostat, which interrupts
the power supply. The oven switches
back on again automatically, when the
temperature drops.

Should the safety thermostat trigger due

to incorrect use of the appliance, it is
enough to remedy the error after the oven
has cooled down; if on the other hand, the
thermostat triggers because of a defective
component, please contact Customer
Service.

The cooling fan

The oven is provided with a cooling fan,
meant to keep the front panel, the knobs
and the oven door handle cool.The fan
switches on automatically when the oven
is activated. Warm air is blown out
through the aperture near the oven door
handle. The fan switches off when, after
cooking, the oven function control knob

is set to OFF position

Before using the oven for the first time

Remove all packaging, both
inside and outside the oven, before
using the oven.

Before using for the first time, the oven
should be heated up without food.

During this time, an unpleasant odour
may be emitted. This is absolutely
normal. It is caused by manufacturing
residues.

Ensure the room is well ventilated.

1. Switch the oven function con-

)

trol knob to conventional cook-

Then let the oven cool down. Then
dampen a soft cloth with warm
water and a little mild washing­up liquid and use this to clean the
oven cavity.

Before using for the first time,
carefully wash the oven
accessories as well.

2. Set the thermostat control
knob to 250° C.

4. Open a window for ventilation.

5. Allow the oven to run empty
for approximately 45 minutes.

This procedure should be repeated with

the full grill function for approximately
5-10 minutes.

To open the oven door, always
hold the handle in the centre.

10 electrolux

Using the oven

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.

Attention! - Do not place objects
on the oven base and do not cover
any part of the oven with aluminium
foil while cooking, as this could
cause a heat build-up which
would affect the baking results and
damage the oven enamel. Always
place pans, heat-resisting pans
and aluminium trays on the shelf
which has been inserted in the
shelf runners.When food is heated,
steam is created, like in a kettle.
When the steam comes into
contact with the glass in the oven
door, it condenses and creates
water droplets.

To reduce condensation, always
preheat the empty oven for 10
minutes.

We recommend you wipe the water
droplets away after every cooking
process.

Always cook with the oven
door closed. Stand clear when

opening the drop down oven door.
Do not allow it to fall open ­support the door using the door
handle, until it is fully open.

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 these shelves
are correctly positioned as shown
in the diagram.
Do not place cookware directly on
the oven base.

Conventional Cooking

- The middle shelf position allows for
the best heat distribution. To increase
base browning simply lower the shelf
position. To increase top browning,
raise the shelf position.

- The material and finish of the baking
trays and dishes used will affect base
browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy
or non-stick utensils increase base
browning, while oven glassware,
shiny aluminium or polished steel trays

electrolux 11

reflect the heat away and give less
base browning.

- Always place dishes centrally on the
shelf to ensure even browning.

- Stand dishes on suitably sized baking
trays to prevent spillage onto the base
of the oven and make cleaning easier.
Do notDo not

-

Do not place dishes, tins or baking

Do notDo not
trays directly on the oven base as it
becomes very hot and damage will
occur.When using this setting, heat
comes from both the top and bottom
elements. This allows you to cook on
a single level and is particularly
suitable for dishes which require ex­tra base browning such as quiches
and flans.

Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which
require extra top browning also cook well
in the conventional oven.
How to use the conventional oven

1. Turn the oven function control knob

to the required cooking function .

2. Turn the thermostat control knob to
the required temperature.

Top oven element only

This function is suitable for finishing
cooked dishes, e.g. lasagne, shepherds
pie, cauliflower cheese etc.

Bottom oven element only

This function is particularly useful when
blind-baking pastry. It may also be used
to finish off quiches or flans to ensure the
base pastry is cooked through.

The thermostat control light will
remain on until the correct
temperature is reached. It will then
cycle on and off to show the
temperature is being maintained.

Grilling -

- Most foods should be placed on the
grid in the grill pan to allow maximum
circulation of air and to lift the food
out of the fats and juices. Food such
as fish, liver and kidneys may be
placed directly on the grill pan, if
preferred.

- Food should be thoroughly dried
before grilling to minimise splashing.
Brush lean meats and fish lightly with
a little oil or melted butter to keep
them moist during cooking.

- Accompaniments such as tomatoes
and mushrooms may be placed
underneath the grid when grilling
meats

- When toasting bread, we suggest that
the top runner position is used.

- The food should be turned over during
cooking, as required.

Full Grill Element

1. Turn the oven control function knob

on .

2. Turn the thermostat control knob on
the required temperature.

3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner
position to allow for different
thicknesses of food. Position the food
close to the element for faster cooking
and further away for more gentle
cooking.

Preheat the grill on a full setting for a
few minutes before sealing steaks or
toasting. Adjust the heat setting and the
shelf as necessary, during cooking.
During cooking, the cooling fan and the
thermostat control light will operate in
the same way as described for the fan
oven function.

12 electrolux

Inner Grill Element

The inner grill provides quick direct heat
to the central area of the grill pan. By
using the inner grill element for cooking
small quantities, it can help to save
energy.

1. Turn the oven control function knob

on .

2. Turn the thermostat control knob on
the required temperature.

3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner
position to allow for different
thicknesses of food and follow the
instructions for grilling.

The grill element is controlled by the

thermostat. During cooking, the grill
cycles on and off to prevent overheating.

Hints and Tips

trays directly on the oven base as it
becomes very hot and damage will
occur.

On baking:

Cakes and pastries usually require a
medium temperature (150°C-200°C) and
therefore it is necessary to preheat the
oven for about 10 minutes.
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of
the baking time has elapsed.
Shortcrust pastry is baked in a
springform tin or on a tray for up to 2/3
of the baking time and then garnished
before being fully baked. This further
baking time depends on the type and
amount of topping or filling. Sponge
mixtures must separate with difficulty
from the spoon. The baking time would
be unnecessarily extended by too much
liquid.
If two baking trays with pastries or
biscuits are inserted into the oven at the
same time, a shelf level must be left free
between the trays.
If two baking trays with pastries or
biscuits are inserted into the oven at the
same time, the trays must be swapped
and turned around after about 2/3 of the
baking time.

On Roasting:

Do not roast joints smaller than 1 kg.
Smaller pieces could dry out when
roasting. Dark meat, which is to be well
done on the outside but remain medium
or rare inside, must be roasted at a higher
temperature (200°C-250°C).
White meat, poultry and fish, on the other
hand, require a lower temperature
(150°C-175°C). The ingredients for a
sauce or gravy should only be added to
the roasting pan right at the beginning if
the cooking time is short. Otherwise add
them in the last half hour.
You can use a spoon to test whether the
meat is cooked: if it cannot be

depressed, it is cooked through. Roast
beef and fillet, which is to remain pink
inside, must be roasted at a higher
temperature in a shorter time.
If cooking meat directly on the oven shelf,
insert the roasting pan in the shelf level
below to catch the juices.
Leave the joint to stand for at least 15
minutes, so that the meat juices do not
run out.
To reduce the build up of smoke in the
oven, it is recommended to pour a little
water in the roasting pan. To prevent
condensation forming, add water several
times. The plates can be kept warm in
the oven at minimum temperature until
serving.

Caution!
Do not line the oven with alu­minium foil and do not place a
roasting pan or baking tray on
the floor, as otherwise the oven
enamel will be damaged by the
heat build-up.

Cooking times

Cooking times can vary according to the
different composition, ingredients and
amounts of liquid in the individual dishes.
Note the settings of your first cooking or
roasting experiments to gain experience
for later preparation of the same dishes.

Based upon your own experiences you
will be able to alter the values given in
the tables.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Before cleaning switch the
oven off and let it cool down.

The appliance must not be
cleaned with a superheated
steam cleaner or a steam jet
cleaner.

Important:

cleaning operation, the appliance must
be disconnected from the power supply.
To ensure a long life for your appliance,
it is necessary to perform the following
cleaning operations regularly:

- Only perform when the oven has
cooled down.

- Clean the enamelled parts with
soapy water.

- Do not use abrasive cleaners.

- Dry the stainless steel parts and glass
with a soft cloth.

- If there are stubborn stains, use
commercially available for stainless
steel or warm vinegar.

The oven’s enamel is extremely durable
and highly impermeable. The action of
hot fruit acids (from lemons, plums or
similar) can however leave permanent,
dull, rough marks on the surface of the
enamel. However such marks in the
brightly polished surface of the enamel
does not affect the operation of the oven.
Clean the oven thoroughly after every
use. This is the easiest way to clean dirt
off. It prevents dirt being burnt on.

Before carrying out any

Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on
your oven, check that they are suitable
and that their use is recommended by
the manufacturer.

Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT
be used as they may dull the surface
finishes. Harsh abrasives should also be
avoided.

External cleaning

Regularly wipe over the control panel,
oven door and door seal using a soft cloth
well wrung out in warm water to which a
little liquid detergent has been added.

To prevent damaging or weakening the
door glass panels avoid the use of the
following:

• Household detergent and bleaches

• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-

• Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads

• Chemical oven pads or aerosols

• Rust removers

• Bath/Sink stain removers

Clean the outer and inner door glass using
warm soapy water. Should the inner door
glass become heavily soiled it is
recommended that a cleaning product
such as Hob Brite is used. Do not use
paint scrapers to remove soilage.

Oven Cavity

The enamelled base of the oven cavity is
best cleaned whilst the oven is still warm.

Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth
soaked in warm soapy water after each
use. From time to time it will be
necessary to do a more thorough
cleaning, using a proprietary oven
cleaner.

Cleaning the Oven Door

Before cleaning the oven door, we
recommend you to remove it from the
oven.

Proceed as follows:

1. open the oven door completely;

2. find the hinges linking the door to the
oven (Fig. A);

3. unlock and turn the small levers
located on the two hinges (Fig. B);

4. handle the door by its left- and right­hand sides, then slowly turn it towards
the oven until it is half-closed (Fig. C);

5. gently pull the oven door off its site
(Fig. C);

6. place it on a steady plan;

Clean the oven door glass with warm
soapy water and a softh cloth only. Never
use harsh abrasives. Once the cleaning
is carried out, refit the oven door,
following the procedure in reverse.

Stainless steel or aluminium
appliances:

We recommend that the oven door is
only cleaned using a wet sponge and
dried after cleaning with a soft cloth.

Never use steel wool, acids or abrasive
products as they can damage the oven
surface. Clean the oven control panel
following the same precautions.

DO NOT clean the oven door
while the glass panels are
warm. If this precaution is not
observed the glass panel may
shatter.

If the door glass panel becomes chipped
or has deep scratches, the glass will be
weakened and must be replaced to
prevent the possibility of the panel
shattering. Contact your local Service
Centre who will be pleased to advise
further.
