2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

2.1 Installation

WARNING!
Only a qualified person must install this appliance.
• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
• Obey the installation instruction supplied with the appliance.
• Keep the minimum distance from the other appliances and units.
• Always be careful when you move the appliance because it is heavy. Always wear safety gloves.
• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to prevent moisture to cause swelling.
• Protect the bottom of the appliance from steam and moisture.
• Do not install the appliance adjacent to a door or under a window. This prevents hot cookware to fall from the appliance when the door or the window is opened.
• If the appliance is installed above drawers make sure that the space, between the bottom of the appliance and the upper drawer, is sufficient for air circulation.
• The bottom of the appliance can get hot. Make sure to install a non­combustile separation panel under the appliance to prevent access to the bottom.
• Make sure that the ventilation space of 2 mm, between the worktop and the front of the below unit, is free. The warranty does not cover damages caused by the lack of an adequate ventilation space.

2.2 Electrical Connection

WARNING!
Risk of fire and electrical shock.
• All electrical connections should be made by a qualified electrician.
• The appliance must be earthed.
• Before carrying out any operation make sure that the appliance is disconnected from the power supply.
• Make sure that the electrical information on the rating plate agrees with the power supply. If not, contact an electrician.

5. HINTS AND TIPS

ENGLISH
11
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.

5.1 Cookware

For induction cooking zones a strong electro-magnetic field creates the heat in the cookware very quickly.
Use the induction cooking zones with correct cookware.
Cookware material
correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless steel, the bottom made of multi-layer (with correct mark from a manufacturer).
not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction hob if:
• some water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware must be as thick and flat as possible.
Cookware dimensions
Induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the bottom of the cookware automatically to some limit.
The cooking zone efficiency is related to the diameter of the cookware. The cookware with a smaller diameter than the minimum receives only a part of the power generated by the cooking zone.
Refer to “Technical information” chapter.

5.2 The noises during operation

If you can hear:
• crack noise: cookware is made of different materials (sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you the cooking zone with high power level and the cookware is made of different materials (sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power level.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer to hob malfunction.

5.3 Öko Timer (Eco Timer)

To save energy, the heater of the cooking zone deactivates before the count down timer sounds. The difference in the operation time depends on the heat setting level and the length of the cooking operation.
www.electrolux.com12

5.4 Examples of cooking applications

The relation between the heat setting and the cooking zone consumption of power is not linear. When you increase the heat setting, it is not proportional to the
increase of the cooking zone consumption of power. It means that the cooking zone with the medium heat setting uses less than a half of its power.

6. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.

6.1 General information

• Clean the hob after each use.
• Always use cookware with clean bottom.
• Scratches or dark stains on the surface have no effect on how the hob operates.
• Use a special cleaner applicable for the surface of the hob.
• Use a special scraper for the glass.

6.2 Cleaning the hob

Remove immediately: melted plastic, plastic foil, and food with sugar. If not, the dirt can cause damage to the hob. Put the special scraper on the glass surface at an acute angle and move the blade on the surface.
