Tips on Cooking and Frying
3 Information on acrylamides
According to the latest scientific knowledge, intensive browning of food, especially in products containing starch, can
constitute a health risk due to acrylamides. Therefore we recommend cooking at the lowest possible temperatures
and not browning foods too much.
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
2 Always place cookware on the cooking
zone before it is switched on.
electrolux 9
2 If possible, always place lids on the
pans.
2 Switch cooking zones off before the end
of the cooking time, to take advantage
of residual heat.
2 Bottom of pans and cooking zones
should be the same size.

Installation Instructions
1 Safety instructions
Warning! This must be read!
The laws, ordinances, directives and standards in force in the country of use are to be
followed (safety regulations, proper recycling
in accordance with the regulations, etc.)
Installation may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
The minimum distances to other appliances
and units are to be observed.
Anti-shock protection must be provided by
the installation, for example drawers may
only be installed with a protective floor directly underneath the appliance.
The cut surfaces of the worktop are to be
protected against moisture using a suitable
sealant.
The sealant seals the appliance to the work
top with no gap.
Avoid installing the appliance next to doors
and under windows. Otherwise hot cookware may be knocked off the rings when
doors and windows are opened.
z Risk of injury from electrical cur-
rent.
• The electrical mains terminal is live.
• Make electrical mains terminal free of
voltage.
• Follow connection schematic.
• Observe electrical safety rules.
• Ensure anti-shock protection by install-
ing correctly.
• The appliance must be connected to the
electrical supply by a qualified electrician.
z Risk of injury from electrical cur-
rent.
• Loose and inappropriate plug and socket connections can make the terminal
overheat.
• Have the clamping connections correctly installed by a qualified electrician.
• Use strain relief clamp on cable.
• In the event of single-phase or two-
phase connection, the appropriate
mains cable of type H05BB-F Tmax
90°C(or higher) or an equivalent type
must be used.
• If this appliance’s mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a special
cable (type H05BB-F Tmax 90°C; or
higher) or an equivalent type. The latter
is available from the Customer Care Department.
A device must be provided in the electrical
installation which allows the appliance to be
disconnected from the mains at all poles with
a contact opening width of at least 3 mm.
Suitable isolation devices include line protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses are
to be removed from the holder), earth leakage trips and contactors.
Sticking on the seal
• Clean the worktop around the cut-out
area.
• Stick the single-sided adhesive sealing
tape provided on the underside of the
hob around the outside edge ensuring
that it is not stretched. The two ends of
the tape should join in the middle of one
side. After trimming the tape (allow it to
overlap by 2-3 mm), press the two ends
to
ether.
