Safety
Cooker development has progressed rapidly. You cannot always use your new cooker in the same way as your old one. For this reason, you should read the instructions carefully and familiarise yourself with your new cooker and what it can do. The cooker is intended for normal household use. Please let us know if you have views or questions about your cooker and its use. You can find our address and telephone number in the “Service” chapter.
Text marked with a WARNING
TRIANGLE concerns safety. READ THIS TEXT VERY CAREFULLY, so that you do
not injure yourself or others, or damage the cooker.
Unpacking
Check that the cooker is in perfect condition and not damaged. You must notify the dealer immediately of any damage that has occurred during transport. For direct deliveries, any transport damage must be notified to Customer Services within seven days according to the freight note.
The packaging can be recycled. Contact your local authority if you do not know where you can deposit it.
Do not forget to remove packing material from inside the oven before it is used.
Installation
Any work required on the cooker must be carried out by a QUALIFIED EXPERT. Any work carried out by non-qualified people can mean poorer cooker performance and result in personal injury and/or damage to property.
For cookers with a plug: Make sure that the plug is completely pushed into the mains socket.
The cooker is heavy. Edges and corners with which you do not normally come into contact, can be sharp. Use gloves when moving the cooker.
THE ANTI-TIP GUARD must be fitted
so that you avoid the cooker tipping when subjected to abnormal loading.
Important! Do not place the cooker on an extra plinth or other heightincreasing unit. This means more risk that the cooker will tip over!
Children and the cooker
Children are by nature curious and interested in most things, even cookers. In the interests of safety, we should like to mention a few things that you should think about if you have children or children come to visit:
There must be a clear surface of at least 40 cm on both sides of the cooker.
If you have a HEATING PLATE GUARD
for your cooker, then this must be fitted.
4
THE DOOR LOCK must also function properly.
Never allow children to use the bladescraper.
Let children help you at the cooker, but teach them that pots and pans, hobs and ovens become very hot and retain heat for some time after use.
TOUCHING THEM CAN RESULT IN BURNS.
For people with pacemakers
Electrolux has examined the way in which induction hobs affect different types of pace-makers. The result shows that there is no risk whatsoever for people with pacemakers to use induction hobs, as long as they
respect A SAFETY DISTANCE OF 30 CM (12") FROM THE HOB.
If you have a pacemaker, we suggest however that you CONTACT YOUR DOCTOR for advice. If there is any doubt whatsoever, we recommend that you DO NOT use products fitted with induction hobs.
How to use
The appliance becomes hot during use. Do not touch the hob or the heating elements inside the oven when the appliance is in use. Never use a cracked ceramic glass plate. Liquids could, if they boil over, or during cleaning, penetrate down into the live electrical components. Switch off the power supply to the cooker and contact Service for repairs.
Never place metal objects such as lids, knives and spoons on the hob. They become hot if a heating zone is switched on by mistake.
Never leave a deep fat fryer, melting fat, paraffin or other easily flammable substance unattended. In the event of fire, turn off the cooker knobs and switch off the fan.
EXTINGUISH THE FIRE WITH A POT LID, never use water.
Use only pans intended for use with an induction hob or oven.
Check the bottoms of pots and pans. Pans which bulge outwards tend to swivel easily on the ceramic glass hob.
Check that the cooker is switched off when not in use. All the knobs should be turned to zero.
Warning! Alcohol and similar substances, which can form explosive gases, or other substances that can cause a fire or explosion must not be used in the oven.
The ceramic glass plate must be used with the greatest care. For example, flaming with brandy or other forms of alcohol can result in traces of fat in the fan igniting and causing serious fires. Similarly, flames and burning fat spills can cause injury to people.
Do not keep chemicals or cleaning agents in the storage drawer.
Cleaning
Keep the ceramic glass hob and oven clean. Fat and spilled material can cause much smoke when heated and are also a possible fire hazard.
Immediately after use (while the plate is still hot) clean with the blade scraper to remove sugar and spills with a high sugar content, such as marmalade, and also any melted plastic or foil, in order to avoid damage to the hob. Be careful, the blade scraper is extremely sharp.
Maintenance and service
Turn all knobs to zero before replacing a defective oven light bulb.
Service and repairs should only be carried out by a repair company approved by the supplier. Use only genuine spare

Heat the oven emty
Keep children under supervision! The cooker becomes very hot.
Do not forget to remove all packing material from inside the oven.
The oven must be burnt off before it is used for the first time. This is done as follows:
Heat up one oven at a time!
1.Open the oven door and remove all the accessories from the oven cavity.
2.Switch on the oven 
. Select hot air 
by using 
or 
. Select a temperature of 200oC. The temperature can be
changed by using 
and 
. The oven door must be closed.
3.Leave the oven at this setting for about one hour.
4.Move over to the Max. grill
function 
by using 
or 
.
Select a temperature of 200oC. The temperature can be
changed by using 
and 
. The oven door must be closed.
5.Leave the oven at this setting for about 30 minutes.
6.Switch off the cooker 
.
7.Then leave the oven door open for about two hours and air out the kitchen.
8.Clean the oven, the door and the oven-step units with hot water and washing-up liquid. Dry the oven.
The first time an oven is used, there may still be a slight smell. This will not affect the food in any way and is not a health-hazard.
The cooling fan
The cooker is fitted with a cooling fan. The purpose of the fan is to keep the appliance cool.
The cooling fan starts automatically when the oven is used. When only the hob is used, the fan has a delayed start.
When the cooker is switched off, the fan stops automatically when oven
temperature has decreased to 120oC.
Accessories
•Super Clean roasting pan and tray, with dirt-repellent coating.
•Oven shelf
•Razor blade scraper
•Telescopic runners
•Non-tip device
•Instruction book
Clean the accessories
Wash the shelves, roasting pan, etc. in hot water and washing-up liquid. Rinse and dry.
Telescopic runners
To prevent scratches during transport, the detachable shelf rails are covered with a protective coating when delivered. This coating must be removed from the rails before they are used, otherwise it can burn fast and damage the rails.
8
Note! Make sure that the cooker anti-tip guard is fitted, see page 51
The removable slide-out shelf rails replace the ordinary oven step units that are fitted in the cooker when it is delivered. They consist of two rails that can be pulled out. The shelves, the roasting pan and the grid are laid on top of the rails. A locating pin keeps the shelf in position (see the illustration).
Use of the removable rails facilitates cooking. For example, when steak or chips are to be basted, the roasting pan is easily pulled out on the rails.
Fitting the rails
First remove the oven step units that are fitted (see page 47). When fitting, the rails are first inserted in the inner hole (1) and then in the outer (2).
Push into position.
Make sure that the locating pin is turned outwards towards the oven door.
The rails must be pushed in when the oven door is closed.
Using grids, baking plates and roasting pan
It is important for the oven grid, the shelves and the roasting pan to be fixed between the stops in the front and rear edges of the rails to prevent them from falling off the rails. Place the baking plate/roasting pan/grid in the rear edge and fix against the front edge. The locating pin fits into a slot under the edge of the baking plate/ roasting pan, which means that the baking plate/roasting pan is held in position.The rails must be in their pushed-in position when the grid/ baking plate/roasting pan is inserted. For the best shelf stability, make sure that the bevelled edge is inwards in the oven. Pull the accessories carefully when using them so that the plate/pan/grid does not fall off the rails. Maximum load 20kg.
Using the oven grid
The locating pin is not needed when using the grid. The oven grid shelf has a mark on its upper surface. This marking must be at the front (towards the oven door) when in use. Make sure that food placed on the grid is positioned behind the marking. Otherwise there is a risk that it will not be cooked properly at the front. The grid can be placed in the roasting pan. The maximum weight to be placed on the grid is 10kg.
9
NOTE! Make sure that the locating pin hooks in under the baking plate edge/ roasting pan and that the baking plate/roasting pan rests on the rails, otherwise it can fall off the rails in the pulled-out position. When the baking plate/roasting pan is removed in the pulled-out position, the rails must be pushed back again so that the oven door can be closed. Use oven gloves because the rails are hot.
Function lock

Using the induction hob
The top oven and rear heating zones share the same energy source (the same electric phase) when they are used simultaneously.
The power applied to the rear heating zones will vary according to how much energy the top oven needs. The more power that is used for the oven (e.g. fast-start, over-/ underheating, gratination or maxgrill) the less power will be available for the rear heating zones.
When a zone cannot be used fully, the display for the selected zone will flash between the maximum available power and the set value.
When the oven is switched off, the zone will automatically return to the set value.
The hob has four heating zones. They are heated with the aid of a magnetic field, i.e.
INDUCTION. This means that
•cooking takes place faster compared with a normal glass hob
•the zone responds “directly” to a change in the heating setting.
Note that the induction zones can still be hot after use.
The glass in the hob tolerates, heat, cold and temperature shocks, but is sensitive to impact. A spice jar or
grinder falling onto the plate could crack it. Never use the hob to stand on, off-load materials onto or use as a storage area.
Never use a cracked plate or an oven with a cracked timer glass.
Liquids could, if they boil over, or during cleaning, penetrate down into the live electrical components. Turn off the power supply to the cooker and contact Service for repairs. Never lay metal objects such as lids, knives and spoons on the hob. They become hot if a heating zone is switched on by mistake.
Immediately after use (while the hob is still hot) clean with the blade scraper to remove sugar and spills with a high sugar content, such as marmalade, and also any melted plastic or foil, in order to avoid damage to the plate.
Never leave a deep fat fryer, melting fat, paraffin or other easily flammable substance unattended. In the event of fire, turn off the cooker knobs and switch off the
cooling fan. EXTINGUISH A FIRE WITH A
POT LID, never use water.
Make sure that there is no sand, sugar or salt on pots and pans. Sand can cause scratches, while sugar and salt can ruin the ceramic glass plate. Always dry pots and pans before placing them on the ceramic glass plate. The coloured decor on the ceramic glass plate can become worn and scratched as it is used.
12
The induction zones
The induction zones have settings from 0 to 9 (can be seen in the hob), where 9 provides the greatest heat. Do this when you want to use the hob:
1Place a pan or frying-pan on the heating zone.
Check that
•the pan or frying-pan has a magnetic bottom.
•the pan or frying-pan is not too
small.
2Turn the knob to the desired setting. Remember that the pan heats up much faster than on an ordinary hob.
3Turn the knob to zero after use.
The zones share the heating effect
NOTE that when the two rear or the two front induction zones are switched on at the same time, they share the heating effect. This is shown by a clicking sound from the hob and the fact that cooking may possibly increase and decrease.
The reason is that they share the same energy source. In order to utilise the maximum top effect (booster) on a zone, then the effect of the other zones must be reduced (this is done automatically).
It is possible to use both zones at the same time, even with one set on booster. BUT REMEMBER that one zone has a reduced effect, which means a longer cooking time. In the case of other settings, you will not notice any great difference, no zone has priority over the others.
A certain sound can occur when using certain pans.
A simple induction principle
When a current passes through a coil, it creates a magnetic field. Under a heating zone there is a coil fitted with ferrite rods. When a pan (with a magnetic bottom) is placed on the zone, the coil and rods create an almost closed magnetic system. The energy produced heats up the pan and its contents.
Choice of cooking utensils
Use only pans that are intended for use with a ceramic glass hob and oven.
When choosing a pan or frying-pan for the hob, remember that the pan bottom:
•must be magnetic.
•does not need to be completely adapted to the zone size, but a small pan on a large zone means longer cooking time.
•must be smooth or finely patterned.
We recommend the following minimum dimensions for the pan bottom diameter;

It is naturally best for the zone and the pan bottom to be the same size.
Save energy!
•Use a lid and you halve energy consumption (compared with using without a lid).
•Steaming and pressure cooking also save energy.
Safety switch-off of the cooking zones
If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after a certain time or the heating setting is not changed, the cooking zone concerned is switched off automatically.
Residual heating is shown by 
(“hot”) in the digital display for the cooking zone concerned.
The cooking zones are switched off automatically in accordance with the following timetable:

If one or more of the cooking zones should shut off before the expiration of the stated time, see the chapter “Problems and remedies”
Safety switch-off for other reasons
Any liquid that boils over and finishes up on the touch panel, activates immediate switching-off of all the cooking zones and their settings. The same effect occurs if a wet cloth is placed on the touch panel. In order to be able to use the hob again, in both cases it must be switched off
, after the liquid or cloth has been removed.
Residual heat warner
After one or more cooking zones have been switched off, the digital display shows the remaining residual heat
(“Hot”) for the respective cooking zone.
Even after the hob has been switched off, the display does not go out until the cooking zones have cooled down.
•The residual heat can be used to melt foodstuffs or to hold food warm.
•Note! There is risk of burns as long as the residual heat warner is alight.
•Note! In the event of a power
cut, the symbol 
goes out and thereby the residual heat warning. There is still the risk of burns. Burns can be avoided by being observant.
