Helpful hints and tips
Using the gas hob
Start your cooking with a big flame by turning
the knob to the symbol
flame as necessary.
The outside of the flame is much hotter than
its inside (nucleus). Accordingly , the top of
the flame should lick the bottom of the pan.
Excessive flames mean a waste of gas.
In contrast with electric grids, gas burners do
not require flat-bottomed pans: the flames
lick the bottom and spread the heat all over
the surface.
No special pans are required for gas
burners. However, thin walled pans
transmit the heat to the food more quickly than thick-walled ones.
Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the
pan's bottom, the food may only be partially
heated. Consequently it is advisable to stir
the food many times.
A thick pan bottom prevents partial overheating as it allows sufficient thermic compensation.
Avoid very small pans. Wide and shallow
pans are more suitable than narrow and
deep ones as they allow a faster heating.
Cooking is not quickened by placing narrow
pans on wide burners. The result is just a
waste of gas. For a proper usage, place small
pans on small burners and large pans on
large burners.
Remember to cover pans to reduce gas
consumption.
Pottery
Remember that a wide-bottomed pan
allows a faster cooking than a narrow
one.
Always use pots which properly fit what
you have to cook.
Particularly make sure that the pans are
not too small for liquids, since these
could easily overflow.
Moreover, the pans should not be too large
for a faster cooking. In fact, grease and juices
may spread on the bottom and burn easily.
It is better to use non open able moulds for
baking cakes. In fact, an open able mould
. Then adjust the
lets juices and sugar leak through, falling on
the bottom of the oven and consequently
burning on the bottom of the baking tray,
making cleaning difficult.
Warning! Avoid putting plastic-handled
pans in the oven as they are not heatproof.
You should use pans with the right diameter
to fit the burner, in order to make the most
out of it, thus reducing gas consumption.
It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and, as soon as the liquid starts boiling, lower the flame enough to keep the boiling point.
Using the oven
Warning! Always cook with the oven
door closed. Stand clear when opening
the drop down oven door. Do not allow
it to fall open - support the door using
the door handle, until it is fully open.
To open the oven door, always hold the
handle in the centre.
The oven has four shelf levels. The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the
oven as shown in the diagram.

It is important that the oven accessories
are correctly positioned.
The second shelf level is fitted with telescopic
shelf supports to allow an easier operation
when inserting or removing the pans.
To use the telescopic runners:
1. Pull the right and left hand telescopic
shelf supports completely out, as shown
on the picture
2. Place the shelf or the grill pan on the telescopic shelf supports, then gently push
them all inside the oven
electrolux 11
Warning! Do not attempt to close the
oven door if the telescopic shelf
supports are not completely inside the
oven. This could damage the door
enamel and glass.
Important! Telescopic shelf supports and
other accessories get very hot! Use oven
gloves or similar.
Warning! Do not place cookware
directly on the oven base.
Warning! When cooking with the oven
or grilling, the cover must be kept open
to avoid overheating.
Warning! Do not place objects and
cookware directly on the oven base and
do not cover any part of the oven with
aluminium foil while cooking, as this
could cause a heat buildup which would
affect the baking results and damage the
oven enamel. Always place pans, heatresisting pans and aluminium trays on
the shelf.
Condensation and steam
The oven is supplied with an exclusive system which produces a natural circulation of
air and the constant recycling of steam. This
system makes it possible to cook in a steamy
environment and keep the dishes soft inside
and crusty outside. Moreover, the cooking
time and energy consumption are reduced to
a minimum. During cooking steam may be
produced which can be released when
12 electrolux
opening the oven door. This is absolutely
normal.
Warning! Always stand back from the
oven when opening the oven door
during cooking or at the end of it to allow
any build up of steam or heat to release.
When food is heated, it produces steam
in the same way as a boiling kettle does.
When steam comes in contact of the
oven door glass, it will condense and
produce water droplets.
To reduce condensation, ensure the oven is
well heated before placing food in the oven
cavity. A short oven pre-heating (about 10
minutes) will then be necessary before any
cooking. We recommend you to wipe away
condensation after each use of the appliance.
Cookware
• Use any oven proof cookware which will
withstand temperatures of 230
°
C.
• Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not
be placed directly against the grid covering
the fan at the back of the oven, or placed
on the oven base.
• Do not use baking trays larger than 30 cm
- 35 cm (12 in - 14 in) as they will restrict
the circulation of heat and may affect performance.
The effects of dishes on cooking results
Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, colour, etc. which affects the way
they transmit heat to the food inside them.
A: Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware
and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and
base browning.
B: Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium,
aluminium with nonstick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.
Cooking fish and meat
You can place meat in oven proof dishes, or
directly on the oven shelf. In this case, remember to place the drip tray in the first position from the bottom with some water in it.
The dripping pan will avoid the falling of melted fat on the oven base.
White meat, poultry and fish in general, need
to be cooked at a medium temperature (be-
tween 150
°
C and 175° C). If you need to
cook red meat (slightly browned on the outside and more gently cooked in the inside), a
°
higher temperature (between 200
°
C) for a short time is recommended.
230
C and
Baking
Cakes usually need to be cooked at a medi-
°
um temperature (between 150
C and 200
C).
A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes)
is recommended when cooking cakes or
baking. Once the cooking has been started,
keep the oven door closed during all the
cooking time, and check the cooking results
through the oven door glass.
Grilling
If you need to grill meat or fish, place them
directly on the shelf after spreading a little oil
on them.
In the grill function, heat comes only from the
top element. Therefore, you need to adjust
the cooking level depending on meat or fish's
thickness.
Always remember to place the dripping pan
in the lower position with some water in it.
Cooking times
Cooking times vary according to the type of
food to be cooked, its consistency, and volume. We suggest that you take particular
note of your first cooking experiments with
the oven, since operating in the same conditions for the same dishes you will of course
obtain similar results.
Only experience will enable you to make the
appropriate changes to values given on
charts.
Cooking table
These tables are intended as a guide only. It
may be necessary to increase or decrease
the temperature to suit your individual requirements. Only experience will enable you
to determine the correct setting for your personal requirements.
Cooking times do not include pre-heating time. A short oven pre-heating (about
10 minutes) is necessary before any
cooking.

Care and cleaning
Warning! Before any maintenance or
cleaning can be carried out, you must
DISCONNECT the appliance from the
electricity supply. This appliance cannot
be cleaned with steam or with a steam
cleaning machine.
Cleaning the hob - the hob top
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm,
as spillage can be removed more easily than
if it is left to cool.
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft
cloth well wrung out in warm water to which
a little washing up liquid has been added.
Avoid the use of the following:
• household detergent and bleaches;
• impregnated pads unsuitable for non stick
saucepans;
• steel wool pads;
• bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it
is recommended that a cleaning product
such as Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is
used.
Pan supports
The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If
washing them by hand, take care when drying them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.
The burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.
Wash the burner caps and crowns using hot
soapy water, and remove marks with a mild
paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with
caution, if the marks are particularly difficult
to remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft
cloth.
Ignition electrode
The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic "electrode" with a metal electrode inside. Keep these components well clean, to
level
Cooking time
avoid difficult lighting, and check that the
burner crown holes are not obstructed.
Cleaning the oven
Warning! The oven should be kept
clean at all times. A build up of fats or
other foodstuffs could result in a fire,
especially in the grill pan.
Clean carefully the oven cavity after use when
it is still warm. In fact, at this moment it is easy
to take off deposits of fat or other substances
such as fruit juice, sugar particles or fat.
You can use warm detergent water or one of
the appropriate spray oven cleaners.
Warning! Do not direct the spray at the
mat steel parts as this could damage
them and always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Clean the oven accessories with warm water
and detergent. Remove possible incrustations with a slightly abrasive powder.
Warning! Never line any part of the oven
with aluminium foil. It would result in an
accumulation of heat which might
damage the cooking results and also
damage the enamel.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your
oven, check that they are suitable and that
their use is recommended by the manufacturer.
