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 electrolux 9
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.
