Residual heat indicator
The residual heat indicator lights up, as soon as the corresponding cooking zone is hot.
Danger! Risk of burns from residual heat. After being switched off, the cooking zones need some time to cool down. Look at the residual heat indicator.
Residual heat can be used for melting and keeping food warm.
8 electrolux operating the hob
Operating the hob
You operate the appliance with the combination appliance’s ring switches. The operation and the function of the ring switches is described in the Operating Instructions for the combination appliance.
How to switch the outer ring on and off is also described there.
When a cooking zone is switched on, it may hum briefly. This is a characteristic of all ceramic glass cooking zones and does not impair either the function or the life of the appliance.
Tips on Cooking and Frying
Cookware
•You can recognise good cookware from the bottoms of the pans. The bottom should be as thick and flat as possible.
•Cookware made of enamelled steel or with aluminium or copper bottoms can leave discolorations on the glass ceramic surface which are difficult or impossible to remove.
Energy saving
Always place cookware on the cooking zone before it is switched on.
If possible, always place lids on the pans.
Switch cooking zones off before the end of the cooking time, to take advantage of residual heat.
Bottom of pans and cooking zones should be the same size.
