Safety information ........................................................................................ 5
The cooker is designed for normal
Danish household use. If used in
any other way there is a risk of
accident.
Children
Keep children under supervision
when the cooker is in use.
Saucepans, cooking zones and oven
get very hot in use and will remain
hot for a period after switching off.
Never let children touch or play
with the controls or the oven door.
Check that the anti-tilt device and
the saucepan guard (extra
equipment) have been correctly
installed, and make sure the child
safety devices have been activated.
Use
Never use a cracked ceramic hob.
Spillages or cleaning water could
penetrate into voltage-bearing
parts. Switch off the power to the
cooker and contact Service.
Never put aluminium foil, paper,
plastic etc. on the ceramic hob. A
hot cooking zone could cause them
to burn or melt.
Never leave the stove unattended
while deep-frying food or melting
fat, paraffin wax or any other easily
flammable substance. In case of
fire, switch off all controls and turn
off any cooker hood.
Stifle the flames with a lid and
never use water.
Use only pots and pans designed
for ceramic cooking zones. Check
that bases are flat. Pans with an
uneven base give poor heat contact
and can easily rotate on the ceramic
surface.
Use only oven-proof dishes in the
oven.
Check that the cooker is switched
off when not in use.
All controls must point to zero.
Cleaning and maintenance
For hygiene and safety reasons,
cooking zones and the oven must
be kept clean. Particles of fat and
food remnants will fume when
heated and in the worst case could
cause a fire.
Make sure the electric cable is
never caught when the cooker is
moved for cleaning.
Switch off the cooker at the main
switch when replacing oven light
bulbs.
5
Service
Service and repairs must be carried out
by Electrolux Service force or by a
servicing organisation approved by
them. Only spare parts supplied by
the above may be used.
Unpacking
The whole packaging can be recycled.
Wooden packaging is made from
untreated wood and plastic and corner
reinforcements are marked with the
method of disposal. Contact your
Local Authority if unsure where to
take the packaging. Remove the
transport protection from the drawer
before use.
Installation
Your cooker may only be installed by
an authorised electrical installation
engineer or a person authorised by the
manufacturer. Work carried out by
non-experts could lead to injury to
persons and/or damage to property, as
well as ruining the cooker. The
cooker may not be placed on an extra
plinth as this will deactivate the antitilt mechanism. Do mount the anti-tilt
mechanism. Take care that the
electric cable does not become caught

indicators
Ceramic hob
The ceramic hob has four cooking
zones. When a cooking zone is
switched on, its glow will turn on
and off at different intervals,
depending on the chosen heat
setting. Even at the highest setting
the cooking zone will switch off
from time to time, to prevent the
hob from overheating.
The ceramic material is tough and
hardened against heat, cold and
temperature shocks, but like all
glass-based materials, it is
to impact. Do not stand on the
ceramic hob as it is unable to
withstand abnormal strains.
sensitive
Cooking zones
The two rear cooking zones are
single zones. The two front
cooking zones are double zones.
CHEC control
Information on how to use CHEC
is given in the section “How to
use”. CHEC control is the name of
the electronic control system
governing the cooking zones.
CHEC control gives you accurate
heat adjustment, so you do not need
to turn the heat up or down. CHEC
provides the cooking zones with the
following functions:
Automatic cut-out of “forgotten”
cooking zones.
QUICKSTART on all heat settings.
Activation of the large zone on the
double cooking zones
Child safety mechanism for the
cooking zones.
Residual heat indicator
When you turn off a cooking zone,
an “H” will appear on the display to
indicate that the zone is still hot.
The residual heat indicator will stay
lit until the cooking zone reaches
around 80˚C.
Cooling fan
The cooker has a cooling fan to
keep the temperature down on
surfaces and electronics. When the
cooker is in use, the thermostatactivated cooling fan switches on
whenever the temperature rises
above a certain point. The fan may
therefore continue to operate after
the cooker has been turned off.
9
Oven
Instructions on how to use the oven are
given in the section:
“How to use”.
You can select from the following
oven functions:
The sides, ceiling and rear wall of the
oven are coated in catalytic enamel,
which is partly self-cleaning. The
oven base is coated in smooth and
easily-cleaned enamel.
The oven door has triple-glazed lowheat glass to ensure a lower external
temperature. The oven door can be
taken apart for cleaning.
Plinth
The plinth is adjustable to give
working heights from 85 cm to 93.5
cm.
Pre-heating times for the oven are:
Conventional oven: approx. 13 mins.
to 200˚C
Fan oven: approx. 7 mins. to 200˚C
Storage drawer
Information on how to use the storage
drawer is given in the section: “How to
use”.

Safety devices
The cooker has anti-tilt protection
preventing it tipping over under
abnormal load, e.g. if a child sits
on top of the open oven door.
The anti-tilt protection must
be mounted and only works
when the cooker is pushed
into position and the screw is
fitted.
The oven door has child
protection, making it more difficult
for children to open the door. The
cooking zones have child
protection, with two knobs having
to be turned simultaneously to
operate the cooking zones. The
oven functions can be locked
when the oven is not in use.
The child safety devices only
work when activated.

17
How to use
The ceramic hob
Never use a cracked ceramic
hob. Spillages or cleaning
water could penetrate into
voltage-bearing parts. Cut
off the power supply to the
appliance and contact
Service.
Never put aluminium foil,
paper, plastic etc. on the
ceramic hob. A hot cooking
zone could cause them to
burn or melt.
Never leave the stove
unattended while deep-frying
food or melting fat, paraffin
wax or any other easily
flammable substance. In
case of fire, switch off all
controls and turn off any
cooker hood.
Stifle the flames with a lid
and never use water.
Never place wet pans on the
ceramic hob.
Make sure pans have no sand, sugar
or salt adhering to them. Sand can
scratch the surface and sugar and
salt damage it.
Always dry pans before placing
them on the ceramic hob.
The hob’s coloured decoration may
become worn and scratched from
use.
If you wish to use the hob to put
things on, the ceramic hob must be
cold. If one or more of the cooking
zones is turned on while items are
resting on the hob, there is a risk of
fire or melting. A heated hob
which is used for putting things on
is a danger to the user and
surroundings and may itself be
ruined. Any objects placed on the
hob must have a flat base/surface
such that the hob is not abnormally
loaded and does not become
fractured or scratched.
In case of spillage, scrape it immediately off the hot hob
with the razor. Spillages of
sugar or sugar-containing
foods (jams, syrup etc.) or
melted plastic and aluminium
foil could damage the hob.
18
The cooking zones
The operating knobs can be turned
continuously from levels one to nine,
nine being the highest setting. There is
QUICKSTART on all levels, so you
can turn the zone to the required heat
setting from the start. See heat settings
table. The 14 and 18 cm cooking
zones are suitable for heating up and
cooking-on small and medium-sized
quantities. The 21 cm cooking zone is
suitable for frying and for heating and
cooking-on large quantities. The 12
cm cooking zone is not suitable for
heating up, but is ideal for melting,
keeping hot and preparing sauces etc.
which must not be allowed to separate.
Level Function
0 Cooking zone off
1-2 Melting, keeping hot
3-4-5 Boiling
3-4-5 Frying, gentle
6-7 Frying/fritters
8-9 Deep frying
This table is for guidance only. Heat settings depend on pans,
quantities and contents. You will soon learn to select the right
setting. See also section “Advice and tips on using the
cooking zones”.

activated the display will show:
21
To switch on a cooking zone, you
must now turn the two operating
buttons to the left and hold them for
two seconds. You must then turn on
one of the cooking zones within ten
seconds.
22
Choice of pans
A ceramic hob requires a more careful
selection of cooking pans than
traditional cookers with elements.
Please note the following:
- Aluminium has good heat
conductivity but may leave
silver-coloured marks on the hob.
The marks can be removed with the
cleaning agent supplied with the
cooker if this is rubbed in well with
kitchen paper.
- Pots and pans of glass or with a
coarsely patterned enamel base create
more wear on the hob than other
materials.
- Avoid pans with painted bases.
Small flakes of paint may burn hard
onto the hob.
Cooking pans used on the ceramic hob
must:
- cover the whole cooking zone, and
preferably be slightly larger.
- have a flat base or one curved
slightly inwards (max. 1 mm), as the
base will curve outwards when
heated up.
- have a thick base:
- aluminium pans, min 3.5 mm
thickness
- steel pans, min 5 mm thickness
- frying pans, min. 5-7 min thickness.
- have a totally smooth base, or one
which has only a fine pattern.
23
Check the flatness of the base by
placing the pan upside down on a
work surface and holding a ruler
over the base. A curved base,
whether inwards or outwards, will
lengthen cooking times and
increase energy consumption. If
the base diameter is too small,
energy consumption will go up and
any spilled food will burn hard onto
the hot cooking zone.
Cooking pans with very smooth or
light-coloured bases will give
slightly longer cooking times than
pans with a matt or dark surface.
24
Advice and tips on using the
cooking zones
Following the advice below
can help you save energy and
make cleaning easier.
Use 1 dl water on the 14 cm
cooking zone.
Use 2 dl water on the 18 cm
cooking zone
Use 3 dl water on the 21 cm
cooking zone
Set the cooking zones to the
correct temperature. Set the
cooking zone to maximum until the
food comes up to heat and then turn
down as far as possible without
letting the food go off the boil. With
thermostatically controlled zones, set
the control to the lower temperature
from the start. These cooking zones
control their own heat output.
Use flat pans. An uneven
pan can increase electricity
consumption by 50%.
The pan must fit the
cooking zone – or be slightly
larger. Remember you can
use large pans for small
portions.
Use tight-fitting lids.
Without a lid the pan will use
over three times as much
electricity.
Cover the pan with a tight-fitting
lid. Bring to the boil at the
maximum level and then turn down
to the lowest possible level when
steam starts pouring out under the
lid. Calculate cooking times from
when you turn the heat down and
only check the potatoes or
vegetables when the cooking time
is over.
Boil 1-8 eggs in ½ dl water. Put
the eggs and water in the pan.
Cover with a close-fitting lid. Turn
up to the maximum level. Turn off
the zone when steam starts pouring
out under the lid. Calculate the
boiling time from when you turn
off the heat and let the eggs cook
on in the zone’s residual heat. This
method can be used on the 12 and
14 cm cooking zones.
Save water. Boil potatoes
and vegetables in 1, 2 or 3 dl
water.

34
The oven
Never put aluminium foil, a
baking sheet or a roasting
dish directly on the floor of
the oven. The enamel could
be damaged through
overheating. The oven gets
hot during use, so keep
children under supervision.
Conventional oven
The oven has heating elements in
the ceiling and floor which cook
the food directly by radiated heat.
Use only one shelf at a time for
baking and roasting.
Fan oven
A fan behind the oven’s hot-air
screen blows air out through air
channels in the sides of the screen.
The conventional oven elements
plus a heating element surrounding
the fan heat up the air which
circulates round the oven before
being drawn in through the grating
in the centre of the screen.
35
When using the fan oven, two shelves
can be used simultaneously. The
shelves must be placed on rails 2 and 5
or 1 and 4. When using the fan oven,
cooking temperatures should be
reduced by 15-20% in comparison with
a conventional oven.
Combination oven
The combination oven combines a fan
oven and a grill. The fan circulates air
round the oven while the grill element
heats the air to the desired temperature
and maintains it there. When cooking
with the combination oven,
temperatures should be 15-20% lower
than with a conventional oven. Use
only one shelf when using the
combination oven.
Pizza/quiche programme
This programme is a combination of
fan oven and base heat. The ring
element and the base element provide
the heat. The base heat ensures a crisp
base for your pizza or quiche. The
circulating hot air cooks the filling and
gives it a golden colour. When baking
puff pastry tarts it is unnecessary to
pre-bake the tart base before adding the
filling.
The temperature is pre-set at 220˚C,
but this can be altered by turning .
36
Best results are obtained by preheating the oven.
The pre-heating time for 220˚C is
approximately 15 min.
Use the temperature and time
indicated in the recipe. Place the
food to be cooked on shelf 3.
Slow-roasting programme
This function is well-suited to
roasting lean and red meat
weighing up to 2500 g and uses the
top and base elements. The oven
heats up to 130˚C in order to close
the meat’s pores, after which the
temperature falls back
automatically to 90˚C. The meat
can then be left to roast at low
temperature for a long period. This
ensures a very tender end-product.
The temperatures are pre-set and
cannot be changed. With this
programme you always start with a
cold oven. For roasting smaller
pieces of meat weighing up to 800
g, it is recommended that the meat
is browned on the hob before
roasting. Always use the electronic
roasting thermometer for whole
pieces of meat. It is difficult to
give a precise roasting time for
different cuts as this will depend on
their shape. The slow-roasting
cooking guide shows the
approximate times.
Defrosting
The ring element and oven fan are
used. This function ensures gentle
thawing of frozen products. You can
defrost on the grid or on several
shelves at once if there is a great deal
to be thawed up. It is impossible to
give times, as these will vary with
the quantity and type of food, but use
a skewer for testing. Defrosting is
pre-set to a temperature of 40˚C and
this cannot be changed.
Baking and other cooking
Temperature differences and/or
uneven distribution of food on
baking sheets may cause distortion in
the latter. This particularly applies to
frozen pizza, chips etc.
Insert a skewer in soft cakes
about 5 min. before the
expected finish time, so you
can shorten or lengthen the
baking time as required. The
result may be affected by the
recipe or by the material,
colour, shape and size of the
cake tin.
If using light-coloured metal tins or
china or glass moulds, place them on
a baking sheet. When using darkcoloured metal tins, they must be
placed on the grid.
37
In a conventional oven, the whole
surface will develop a uniform
colour.
In a fan oven baking and cooking is
more rational, but the colour will be
more uneven. To achieve the best
results arrange the food so as not to
block air flow. For instance, rolls
must be arranged in straight rows.
Rectangular items such as baguettes,
oblong cakes etc. must be arranged
with their narrow ends towards the
rear wall of the oven and the door.
The fan oven is less suitable for
baking items with a high sugar
content which need a high
temperature for a short period. So,
for instance, biscuits will come out
better in a conventional oven.
In a fan oven several dishes can be
prepared simultaneously, e.g. first
course, main course and dessert.
You just need to make sure they are
dishes which cook at the same
temperature.
The combination oven is suitable
for gratins and other dishes which
need a golden surface, e.g. pommes
dauphinoises, roast potatoes etc.
The combination oven is not
suitable for baking.

** Oven times for poached or baked fish depend on the thickness of the fish.
The thicker the fish, the longer the cooking time. Fish is ready when the flesh is
white and opaque. Test near the backbone with a fork. If the flesh falls away,
the fish is ready.These settings are for guidance only. See also section “Advice

Roasting
Max 5 dl vand
This oven is well insulated. That
means that humidity in the oven will
be relatively high and consequently
no water should be added when
roasting. If you want stock for
making gravy, place the joint in a
suitably sized oven-proof dish and
add max. 5 dl water. No further
water should be added during
cooking.
If you use too much water in the
oven, condensation will form which
may spill out onto the floor. You
will also use excessive energy.
The conventional oven, fan oven,
combination oven and slowroasting programme are suitable
for roasting. The combination oven
is particularly suitable for items
which need a crisp skin such as
chicken, roast pork, leg of lamb etc.
However, be aware that when using
the fan oven or combination oven,
the oven will need much more
cleaning, due to the distribution of
fat particles by the circulating air.
Max. 5 dl water
If you want to use a roasting
bag, cut off one corner before
placing it in the oven. In this
way you will avoid burning
yourself on hot steam when
you open the bag.
41
Max 5 dl vand
Use of the roasting
j
j
thermometer
To achieve the best results, the tip
of the roasting thermometer must
be buried in the thickest part of the
oint. It must not rest in fat or
against a bone, as this will give a
false reading. The whole of the
sensor pin must be inside the meat,
as otherwise the heat from the oven
will affect the thermometer. When
the desired temperature is reached,
take the joint out, cover it with
aluminium foil and let it rest for
about 20 min. The joint will then
be easier to carve and less meat
uice will be wasted.
Remember that the plastic
parts of the roasting
thermometer must be at least
4 cm from the heating
elements.

Grilling
For grilling the temperature should
be 250˚C. If you wish to grill more
gently you may choose a lower
temperature.
Wipe the item to the grilled with
kitchen paper as otherwise moist
items will steam rather than grill.
Allow the grill to warm up for five
minutes before putting in the food.
Arrange the food on the grid on the
rail recommended on the settings
table.
Cover the roasting dish with
aluminium foil and place below the
grid to catch dripping fat etc., as
this will make cleaning easier.
The oven door must be closed
during grilling.
Keep a constant watch on the
grilling process
Grilling for too long will make the
food dry and tasteless, and in the
worst case, burnt.
Turn the items at least once during
grilling.

Advice and tips on using
the oven
Use the following advice to
save energy and make
cleaning easier.
Put food in a cold oven and
use residual heat. Food and
baking with a cooking time
of over 20 minutes can be put
into a cold oven. Set the
time and temperature as
shown. Turn off the oven
and let the food or baking
remain in the oven for a
further 15-20 mins.
Fill the shelf up. You can
easily bake and roast at the
same time if the dishes cook
at the same temperature.
They will not take on the
flavour of the other items.
Don’t roast at too high a
temperature. Meat contains about
70% water. To get the juiciest
meat, slow-roast it. The roasting
time will be slightly longer and you
will use slightly more energy at the
lower temperature, but the result
will be better. At the same time
your oven will be easier to clean
because fat droplets will not burn
on so hard.
No bain-marie. A bain-
marie uses lots of energy.
The food’s own moisture is
enough to prevent it drying
out.
Bake cakes in a low-sided mould rather than a high sided one. This will shorten
cooking times and save
energy.
47
Ventilation position
Each time you finish using your
oven, put it in ventilation position.
Otherwise there is a risk of
humidity in the oven causing rust.
What to do:
1. Open the oven door and lift the
two stop catches.
2. Close the oven door until the
stop catches engage with the side
of the oven.
Allow the oven door to remain
open until the oven has cooled
down.
The storage drawer
The storage drawer is designed for
storage of oven equipment.
The storage drawer must not be
used for storing food for lengthy
periods, as moisture from the food
could cause rust in and around the
storage drawer.
48
Cleaning and maintenance of
The anti-tilt mechanism will
only work when the cooker is
pushed back into position and
the screw has been mounted.
Please remember this when
moving the cooker to clean
behind it. For hygienic and
safety reasons the ceramic hob
and oven must be kept clean.
Fat droplets and food remnants
will fume when heated up and
in the worst case could cause a
fire.
Steel surfaces
Carry out daily cleaning with a well
wrung-out cloth. For more stubborn
marks use a cloth or a soft plastic
sponge and washing-up liquid or
universal cleaner.
Never use scouring pads, wire wool,
hard plastic sponges, scouring powder
or other abrasive cleaning agents.
Over time steel surfaces will take on a
flamelike appearance. You can
restore their original appearance by
rubbing them with a thin coating of
food oil or by polishing them with
“Original Steel Polish”. This product
can be ordered from Electrolux
Hvidvarer-Service, see Tel. no. at the
back of these instructions.
The oven valve
Remove the valve and wash in hot
water and washing-up liquid.
The ceramic hob
Scrape off spillages of sugar, sugarcontaining foods (jam, syrup etc.),
melted plastic and aluminium foil
immediately from the hot hob. If the
hob is allowed to cool down it may
suffer damage. A dirty hob will
impair heat conduction between the
cooking zones and the pans. After
use, wipe down the cooking zones
with a damp cloth and washing-up
liquid. In the case of severe soiling,
try the following:
1. Remove food etc. with the razor.
2. Ensure the hob has cooled down.
Use the cleaning fluid supplied.
Shake the bottle and squeeze a
couple of thin lines of product onto
the hob.
3. Wipe the hob clean with a damp
cloth or kitchen paper. Remove
stubborn stains by rubbing hard
with kitchen paper.
4. Wipe off excess cleaning fluid with
a damp cloth.
5. If necessary, wipe with a dry cloth.
Make sure the hob is dry before
heating up again. A damp hob may
take on rainbow-like stripes when
heated up.
49
The oven
When cleaning the oven it is
convenient to remove the door and
shelf rails.
The sides, ceiling and rear wall of
the oven are of catalytic enamel
which is partly self-cleaning at
temperatures over 200˚C.
After cooking at low temperatures
and or where the oven is covered
with fat, the oven must be heatcleaned.
Keep children away from the
cooker while the oven is
being heat-cleaned, as the
front of the cooker will get
hotter than normal.
Spillages and fat droplets must
always be removed before cleaning
the oven.
What to do:
1. Remove stubborn stains as far as
possible by scraping with a
wooden kitchen tool.
2. Smear the sides and back of the
oven with a strong solution of
washing-up liquid and hot water.
Use a sponge or brush and scrub
well.
3. Let the oven stand for about 1
hour.
50
4. Set the oven to heat-clean.
Switch on at . Turn the knob
to . Select temperature 300˚C
by turning knob .
5. Leave the oven at this setting for
1½ hours. The oven's
AUTOSTOP function means the
oven will automatically turn off
after 1½ hours.
6. If you want the oven to self-clean
for longer than 1½ hours you will
need to program an automatic
stop. See program instructions,
"How to use - Automatic oven
stop"
When cleaning is complete, there
may be some carbonised powder on
the floor of the oven. This is the
remains of the dirt which has been
burnt off. The easiest way to
remove this is with a damp cloth.
1. Carefully loosen the dirt with a
wooden scraper.
2. Smear the floor with soft soap,
preferably in liquid form, using a
sponge.
3. Close the oven door and switch
on the oven at 100˚C for 10
minutes.
4. Wash the oven with clean water
when cool. It may be necessary to
carefully go over it again with a
white scouring sponge. Wipe clean.
You may also use an oven cleaner.
Follow the instructions on the
product.
Do not use oven cleaner or
sharp objects on the catalytic
enamel.
The oven floor
The oven floor is made from easyto-clean smooth enamel. Wipe the
floor after each use of the oven.
Use a damp cloth, preferably with a
few drops of washing-up liquid.
In case of heavy soiling, try the
following:
51
The oven fan
The fan may get dirty from fat
droplets from roasting.
Check the fan every four months

carried out by an authorised
electrical installation
engineer or a person
authorised by the
manufacturer.Work carried
out by non-experts may lead
to personal injury or damage
to property, besides ruining
the cooker.
Remove the back panel. Connect
the cooker as shown on the
diagram. Electrical installations
must be carried out in accordance
with the relevant rules in the heavy
current regulations.
The installation must comply with
any special requirements of the
local power supply company. The
cooker must be connected via an
external power switch with a
contact distance of at least 3 mm.
(May be the main switch).
Temperature too low. The baking rises
and then collapses again. Use a higher
temperature.
You have used too little yeast or baking
powder. Check your recipe to see
whether you have used enough.
The fat/liquid mixture was too warm.
The temperature must be 37˚C for fresh
yeast and 45-50˚c for dried yeast.
Temperature too low. The baking
needed too long in the oven before it
was ready. Use a higher temperature.
Too little liquid, too much flour or the
wrong type of flour can result in dry
bread. Remember not to add all the
flour at once, as the quantity of flour

Problems
Remedy
Baking/food turns out too dark or
unevenly baked.............................
Baking/food does not brown
sufficiently.....................................
Wrong temperature. When cooking in
the fan oven, temperatures should be
reduced by 15-20% in comparison with
a conventional oven. Note that a
change of 5˚C can greatly affect the
result.
When the fan oven is in use, the result
will generally be more uneven than in a
conventional oven.
Temperature too low. The baking/food
is ready before it has browned. Use a
higher temperature.
Position in oven too low. The
baking/food has received too little top
heat. Move the baking/food up one
rail.
You have placed a light-coloured tin or
a china/glass dish on the grid.
Use a baking sheet when using lightcoloured tins or a china/glass dishes.
The pores in the enamel are plugged by
burnt-on fat. See section “Cleaning
and maintenance of” for how to remove
the burnt-on fat.

Before calling service – Technical advice
Problems
The cooker/oven does not work
The oven does not heat up quickly
enough
The hob gets hot.
The fuses are constantly blowing.
Remedy
Check that the cooker is switched on.
Check the cooker’s fuses. (NB There
are three fuses).
A conventional oven will heat up to
200˚C in approx. 13 mins. A fan oven
will heat up to 200˚C in approx. 7
mins.
Hob heat will reach 80˚C. However, it
may become hotter if you use pans
which do not have a flat base or which
are too small to cover the cooking
zones.
Maybe too many electrical appliances
are being used at the same time. If the
cooker is connected to a 10 amp fuse
group, there is a high risk of overload.
The cooking zones do not get hot
enough
The pan must be the right size for the
cooking zone. Check that the pan has a
flat bottom, e.g. by holding it against
the edge of a worktop. Boil a litre of
water in a lidded pan, with the cooking
zone set to maximum.
On a 12 cm cooking zone the boiling
time is about 25 mins.
On a 14 cm cooking zone the boiling
time is about 13 mins.
On a 18 cm cooking zone the boiling
time is about 10 mins
On a 21 cm cooking zone the boiling
time is about 8 mins
