1 Grill pan grid

Before first use

Rating plate

• This is usually situated on the front frame
of the appliance and can be seen upon
opening either of the oven doors. Alterna­tively the rating plate may also be found on
the back or top of some models (where
applicable).

• The appliance must be protected by a suit­ably rated fuse or circuit breaker.

• The rating of the appliance is given on the
rating plate.

• Do not remove the rating plate from the
appliance as this may invalidate the guar­antee.

Preparing to use your appliance

• Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a
soft cloth using hot soapy water. Wash the
furniture before use.

• We suggest that you run the oven(s) and
grill for 10 – 15 minutes at maximum tem­perature, to burn off any residue from their
surfaces.

Warning! Accessible parts may
become hotter than in normal use.
Children should be kept away.

• During this period an odour may be emit­ted, it is therefore advisable to open a win­dow for ventilation.

The cooling fan for the controls

• The cooling fan comes on immediately
when the grill/top oven is switched on and
after a short time when the main oven is in

electrolux 5

use. It may run on after the controls are
switched off until the appliance has
cooled.

• During the initial period the cooling fan may
turn on and off, this is quite normal.

Warning! Always allow the cooling fan
to cool the appliance down before
switching off at the wall prior to carrying
out any cleaning or maintenance work.

Condensation and steam

• When food is heated it produces steam
similar to a boiling kettle. The vents allow
some of this steam to escape. However,
always stand back from the appliance
when opening the door(s) to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.

• If the steam comes into contact with a cool
surface on the outside of the appliance,
e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce
water droplets. This is quite normal and is
not caused by a fault on the appliance.

• To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe
away condensation and foodstuff from
surfaces.

• For your safety wall coverings at the rear
of the appliance should be securely fixed
to the wall.

Cookware

• Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm
x 30cm (12" x 12") as they will restrict the
circulation of heat and may affect perform­ance.

Automatic cooking

It is advisable to leave food in the oven for as
short a time as possible before automatic
cooking.
Always ensure commercially prepared food
is well within its use by date and that home
prepared food is fresh and of good quality.
When cooking is complete, do not leave food
to stand in the oven, but remove and cool it
quickly if the food is not to be consumed im­mediately.
Always ensure food in the oven has been
covered before cooking if it is not possible to
remove food immediately after cooking.

The gas hob

The gas hob has different burner sizes to suit
different types of cooking:
To ensure maximum burner efficiency only
use pots and pans with flat bases appropri­ate to the burner size used.
Larger burner (Rapid or triple crown where
applicable) - use a large pan for food such as
chips.
Medium burners (Normal) - use for everyday
cooking.
Small burner (Simmer) - use for simmering
foods such as soups and stews.
The largest pan which you should use on any
burner is 230mm (9").
The base of the smallest pan should not
measure less than 100mm (4").

Warning! Ensure the pan supports are
correctly fitted before using the hob.

To light the hob burners

The hob ignition works by means of an elec­tric spark system.

1. Lift up the lid. You cannot use the hob
when the lid is down.

2. Push in and hold the control knob, turn to
the large flame symbol (highest setting)
and press the ignition button immediate­ly. Keep the control knob depressed for
up to 5 seconds, but no longer than 10
seconds. After this time release the con­trols. The flame should remain alight. If
after 10 seconds the burner has not lit,
stop operating the appliance and wait at
least 1 min before attempting a further ig­nition of the burner.

3. When the burner has lit release the con­trol and ignition button, adjust the setting
as required.

Warning! Warning: If the ignition button
is not pressed immediately a build up of
gas may cause the flame to spread.

8 electrolux

Warning! If you close the lid of the

appliance while any of the hotplate
burners are lit, the gas will go out. This
is because it would be dangerous if the
burners stayed on when the lid was
closed.
Always use the control knob to turn off a
burner. Do not use the lid as a cut-off
device. This will only cut off the gas when
the lid is closed. The gas will flow again
when the lid is opened.

To turn off any burner

1. Turn the control knob to the off position.
Warning! When lighting any burner,

ensure that it is lit before you leave the
appliance. When turning off a burner,
ensure the flame has gone out before
leaving the appliance.

Warning! In the event of the burner
flames being accidentally extinguished,
turn off the burner control and do not
attempt to reignite the burner for at least
1 min.

Things to note

If you are having any difficulty lighting a hob
burner turn all the hob controls off and make
sure the burner parts have been replaced
correctly.

Warning! Do not use the lid as a work
surface or chopping board. This could
damage the glass and reduce its
strength.

Warning! Place pans on the centre of
the burners.
Position pans so the handles cannot be
accidentally knocked or overhang the
appliance.
Lift pans on and off the pan supports. Do
not slide them across the hob.

Warning! Take care to avoid burns and
scalds when reaching across the
hotplate.

Warning! Take extra care when deep fat
frying, do not cover the pan with a lid. Do
not leave a pan unattended. If the pan
catches fire, leave it where it is and turn
off all controls. Place a damp cloth or a
fitting lid over the pan to smother the
flames. Never put water on the fire.
Leave to cool for 30 minutes.

The grill

Caution! Accessible parts may be hot

when the grill is in use. Young children
should be kept away.

When you first operate the grill you may hear
some sounds as the burner heats up, this is
quite normal and is not a fault on the appli­ance.

Using the dual grill

• Fully open the grill door.

• Push in the control knob and turn to the
large flame symbol (highest setting).

• After a few seconds the grill will light auto­matically.

• When the burner has lit release the control.

•

Warning! The grill door must be left
open when grilling.

Things to note

• The cooling fan for the controls may oper­ate after a time.

• Some smoke from fat splashes may be
evident as the grill cleans itself.

• The Top oven cannot be operated when
the grill is in use.

• The shelf in the grill/second oven is differ­ent from the shelves in the main oven. Only
use the shelf with the solid metal plate in
the grill/second oven.

Warning! Never cover the grill pan or
grid with foil as this can lead to grill fires.

Ensure that the cut out on the underside of
the handle bracket locates between the bars
of the shelf and over the cross bar on the
shelf.

The top oven

The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens.
It is designed for cooking smaller quantities
of food.
Place single dishes on the centre of the shelf.
You should turn all food round during cook­ing
The top oven is also ideal for use as warming
compartment to warm dishes and keep food
hot.
Use the top oven when you want to warm
plates. Use the lowest setting on the top
oven temperature control.

Preheating

When you need to preheat the oven, we rec­ommend you do so for 20 minutes.
For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g.
bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best
results are achieved if the oven is preheated
first. For best results when cooking frozen or
cooked chilled ready meals always preheat
the oven first.

Using the top oven

• Open the oven door.

• Push in the control knob and turn it to gas
mark 1 and press the ignition button im­mediately. When the burner has lit release
the button. There will only be small flames
at first.

To fit the top oven shelf

The shelf should be fitted with the straight
rods uppermost on the frame and the forms
towards the back of the oven.
To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you
until the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at
the front to that the stops clear the side sup­ports. Lift shelf clear.
To install a shelf, reverse the above steps.
Each shelf position has an upper and lower
support wire, ensure the shelf is placed be­tween these two support wires.

Main oven conventional cooking
Heat zones

There are zones of heat within the oven.
The temperature in the middle is the gas
mark you have chosen.
The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the
lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of the
oven is quite a lot cooler.
You can make use of these heat zones when
you are cooking foods requiring different
temperatures all at the same time. If you are
cooking more than one tray of similar items,
for example cakes or biscuits, swap the trays
during cooking or you can remove the top
tray when the food is cooked and move the
lower tray to the higher shelf to finish cooking.

Preheating

When you need to preheat the oven, we rec­ommend you do so for 20 minutes.
For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g.
bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best
results are achieved if the oven is preheated
first. For best results when cooking frozen or
cooked chilled ready meals always preheat
the oven first.

Using main oven conventional cooking

• Open the oven door.

• Push in the control knob and turn it to gas
mark 9. After a few seconds the oven will
light automatically. There will only be small
flames at first.

• Turn the control knob to the required gas
mark.

• Wait until the oven burner is showing large
flames.

• Close the oven door.

• To turn the oven off, push in the control
knob and turn to the off position.

Things to note

• If there is an electrical power failure you
cannot use the main oven.

• The cooling fan for the controls may oper­ate after a time.

Warning! Do not place cookware and
cooking pots with rough bases e.g. cast
iron on the oven door as damage to the
glass may occur.

The main oven shelves

The shelves should be fitted with the straight
rods uppermost on the frame and the forms
towards the back of the oven.
To remove a shelf slide the shelf towards you
until the shelf stop is reached. Tilt shelf up at
the front to that the stops clear the side sup­ports. Lift shelf clear.
To install a shelf, reverse the above steps.
Each shelf position has an upper and lower
support wire, ensure the shelf is placed be­tween these two support wires.

Slow Cook

The slow cook setting gives a very low heat
in the oven. It is particularly useful when you
are cooking soups, stews and casseroles
because the long slow cooking will make
cheaper, tougher cuts of meat more tender.

electrolux 11

Some foods such as pastry and biscuits are
not suitable for slow cooking because the
temperature is too low.
Cover all food during cooking to prevent it
from drying out.
You can uncover food for the last half hour if
it is normally served golden brown.

Using slow cook

• You need to cook food at gas mark 6 for
30 minutes before you turn the oven down
to the slow cook setting. This makes sure
that the temperature of the food gets hot
enough to start the food cooking.

Food preparation - Slow cook

Joints of meat and poultry

• Do not cook meat joints over 2.7kg (6lb).

• Do not cook poultry over 2 kg (4lb 8oz).

• Cook on the middle shelf of the oven or
above.

•Cook stuffing separately.

• Cook for at least six hours.

• Only cook joints of pork if you can make
sure, by using a meat thermometer, that
the temperature inside the joint is at least

°

88

C.

• For good air circulation always stand joints
on a rack in a roasting tin or casserole.

• Thaw all frozen meat and poultry before
you cook it.

• Prime cuts of meat do not benefit from
slow cooking.

• Remove excess fat and skin unless it is
browned first.

Soups, casseroles and stews

• Do not cook casseroles over 2.7 kg (6lb).

• Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook
on slow cook.

• Cook on the middle shelf of the oven or
above.

• Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.
Vegetables

• Cut into small pieces.

• Dried beans must be pre-soaked then
boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes be­fore adding to any dish.

• Place vegetables under meat in casser­oles.

• Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.

Milk puddings

• Cover the cereal with boiling water and
leave it to stand for 30 minutes.

• Drain and make the pudding in the usual
way.

Frozen foods

• Thaw thoroughly before cooking.

Thickening

• Toss meat in flour for casseroles. Alterna­tively blend cornflour with water and add it
at the end of cooking.

Flavouring

• Flavours are held in the food because there
is little evaporation. Adjust flavouring at the
end of the cooking time.

Liquid

• Use slightly less liquid as there is little evap­oration during cooking. Always add milk
and milk products, for example cream to­wards the end of cooking to prevent them
from curdling.

Reheating

• Cool left over food quickly and then put it
in the fridge. Do not reheat food using the
slow cook setting. Reheat food in the usual
way or in a microwave. Only reheat food
once.

Helpful hints and tips

Using the hob

• Do not overfill pans or they will boil over.

• Do not use pans with very heavy handles,
which cause the pan to tip.

• The hob surface should be allowed to cool
before closing the lid.

• Any spillage should be removed from the
lid before opening.

• Do not leave accidental spillage on the hob
or removable parts. The spillage should be

wiped up and the parts washed and care­fully dried as soon as the hob, pan sup­ports and burner parts are cool enough to
touch.

• A flat-based Wok will stand stable on the
pan supports. If you use a round Wok with
a collar support, the collar must be the
open wirework type otherwise the per­formance of the burner will be affected.

12 electrolux

Using the grill

• Most foods should be placed on the grid
in the grill pan to allow maximum circula­tion of air to lift the food out of the fats and
juices.

• Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position
to allow for different thicknesses of food.

• Food should be thoroughly dried before
grilling to minimise splashing. Brush lean
meats and fish lightly with a little oil or mel­ted butter to keep them moist during cook­ing.

• Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath
the grid when grilling meats.

• When toasting bread use the shelf in po­sition 1 with the grid in the high position.

• Preheat the grill on a full setting for a few
minutes before sealing steaks or toasting.
Adjust the heat setting and the shelf as
necessary during cooking.

• The food should be turned over during
cooking as required.

Using the top oven

• Arrange the shelves in the required posi­tions before switching the oven on. Shelf
positions are counted from the top down­wards.

• Ensure that food is placed centrally on the
shelf and there is sufficient room around
the baking tray/dish to allow for maximum
circulation.

• Do not push dishes too far back as food
will burn if it overhangs the burner flame

• Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking
tray on the shelf to prevent spillage onto
the oven base and to help reduce cleaning.

• The material and finish of the baking tray
and dishes used affect base browning. En­amel ware, dark, heavy or non stick uten­sils increase base browning. Shiny alumi­nium or polished steel trays reflect the heat
away and give less base browning.

• Do not place baking trays directly on the
oven base as it interferes with the oven air
circulation and can lead to base burning;
use the lower shelf position.

• For economy leave the door open for the
shortest possible time, particularly when
placing food into a preheated oven.

Using the main oven

• Arrange the shelves in the required posi­tions before switching the oven on. Shelf
positions are counted from the top down­wards.

• Ensure that food is placed centrally on the
shelf and there is sufficient room around
the baking tray/dish to allow for maximum
circulation.

• Do not push dishes too far back as food
will burn if it overhangs the burner flame.

• Stand dishes on a suitably sized baking
tray on the shelf to prevent spillage onto
the oven base and to help reduce cleaning.

• The material and finish of the baking tray
and dishes used affect base browning. En­amelware, dark, heavy or non- stick uten­sils increase base browning. Shiny alumi­num or polished steel trays reflect the heat
away and give less base browning.

• When cooking more than one dish in the
oven, place dishes centrally on different
shelves rather than cluster several dishes
on one shelf, this will allow the heat to cir­culate freely for the best cooking results.

• If you are cooking more than one tray of
similar items, for example cakes or bis­cuits, swap the trays during cooking or you
can remove the top tray when the food is
cooked and move the lower tray to the
higher shelf to finish cooking.

• Do not place baking trays directly on the
oven base as it interferes with the oven air
circulation and can lead to base burning;
use the lower shelf position.

Care and cleaning

Warning! Before cleaning always allow
the appliance to cool down before
switching off at the electricity supply.

Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on your
appliance, check that they are suitable and
that their use is recommended by the man­ufacturer.
Cleaners that contain bleach should NOT be
used as they may dull the surface finishes.
Harsh abrasives and scourers should also be
avoided.
Multi-surface antibacterial cleaning products
should not be used on the ceramic hob or on
the surrounding trims.

Cleaning the outside of the appliance

Do not use abrasive cleaning materials or
scourers on painted or printed finishes as
damage may occur.
Regularly wipe over the control panel, doors
and appliance sides using a soft cloth and
hot soapy water.
To prevent streaking finish with a soft cloth.
Stainless Steel cream cleaners are abrasive
and should be avoided as they may dull the
surface finish.
Any spillage on the stainless steel finish must
be wiped off immediately.

Warning! Do not attempt to remove any
of the control knobs from the appliance
as this may cause damage and is a
safety hazard.

Cleaning the control knobs and handles

It is strongly recommended that only hot
soapy water is used for cleaning the control
knobs and handles.
ANY OTHER CLEANING MATERIALS MAY
DULL THE SURFACE FINISH.

Removing and replacing the wire work
runners

1. Remove all shelves

and furniture from
the oven.

2. Hold the wire work at

the bottom, unclip
from the cavity side
and gently pull to­wards the centre of
the oven.

3. Unhook the runner

at the top and re­move from the cavi­ty.

4. To replace the run-

ners, hook the wire
work side runner into
the cavity, slide back
and press into place.

Warning! Ensure
the wirework runners are firmly in
position before replacing the oven
shelves.

Cleaning the gas hob

Clean the hotplate top using a mild abrasive.
Take care not to damage the spark electro­des. If the spark electrodes are damaged the
burners will not light.
You can remove the pan supports, burner
caps and burner crowns to clean them.
Again take care not to damage the spark
electrodes.
Clean the burner crowns and pan supports
by soaking them in very hot soapy water.
Aluminium based saucepans can leave shiny
metal marks on the pan supports.
You can remove any stubborn stains by
scouring with a soap impregnated steel wool
pad.

electrolux 17

If you look after the burner crowns and pan
supports in this way they will stay reasonably
clean.
However the surface will dull with time. After
cleaning the appliance parts, dry them thor­oughly before you put them back.

When replacing hob burner parts

1. Crown to body. (Do not try to force the
crown on to the body).
Make sure that the hole in the crown is
over the electrode. Check that the loca­tion pegs sit in the slots in the body. When
the crown is in this position let it fall freely
on to the body. Check that the crown can
be moved slightly from side to side.

2. Cap to crown. Place cap centrally on the
top of crown (enamel side up). Move side­ways and front to back to check the cap
is properly fitted.

3. Check for ignition. If a burner will not light
then you need to check the crown and
cap positions.

Cleaning the shelves, wire work runners
and grill/oven furniture

All removable parts, except the grill pan han­dle can be washed in the dishwasher.
The grill pan, grill pan grid, oven shelves and
wire work runners may be cleaned using a
soap impregnated steel wool pad.
Soaking first in hot soapy water will make
cleaning easier.

Cleaning the grill

Do not clean the grill burner itself. Cleaning
the grill may cause the holes in the burner to

become blocked preventing it from operating
correctly.
Due to the nature of stainless steel the grill
burner may tarnish through use over a period
of time.
This is quite normal and is not a fault on the
appliance Clean the area around the grill fre­quently using hot soapy water.

Cleaning inside the grill and oven
compartments

The sides and back of the grill/second oven
and main oven compartments are coated
with a special Stayclean coating. They
should not be cleaned manually.
The vitreous enamel main oven base and grill
compartment base can be cleaned using
normal oven cleaners with care.
Ensure that the manufacturers instructions
are followed and that all parts are well rinsed
afterwards.

Warning! Aerosol cleaners must not
come into contact with elements, the
door seal, or any painted finishes as this
may cause damage.

HINTS AND TIPS

Warning! Aerosol cleaners must not be

used on Stayclean surfaces.

Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food
and fats when the oven temperature is raised
to around 220°C.
It is a good idea to run the oven for an hour
or two per week to ensure continued good
performance from the Stayclean finish.
Slight discolouration and polishing of the
Stayclean surfaces may occur in time.
This DOES NOT affect the Stayclean prop­erties in any way.
Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when
roasting meat, potatoes only require brush­ing with fat before cooking.
Extra fat in the oven during roasting will in­crease splashing and soilage.
It is NOT necessary to add water to a meat
tin when roasting.
The water and the fat juices from the joint
create excessive splattering during cooking
– even at normal temperatures, as well as
causing condensation.
Covering joints during cooking will also pre­vent splashing onto the interior surfaces.

18 electrolux

Removing the covering for the last 20-30 mi­nutes will allow extra browning if required.
Some large joints and turkeys especially ben­efit by this method of cooking, allowing the
joint to cook through before the outside is
over browned.

Cleaning the doors

Warning! To prevent damaging or

weakening the door glass panels avoid
the use of the following:

• Household detergents and bleaches

• Impregnated pads unsuitable for non­stick saucepans

• Steel wool pads

• Chemical oven pads or aerosols

• Rust removers

• Bath/Sink stain removers

Cleaning between the outer and inner
door glass

The inner door glass is removable for clean­ing.

1. Open the oven door to gain access to the
top of the oven door.

2. To remove the top trim carefully push the
trim towards the oven and lift off.

3. Hold the door securely in place with one
hand before sliding the glass out with the
other hand.

4. Clean the outer and inner glass using hot
soapy water or Hob cleaner may be used.
Do not use Hob cleaner on the Stainless
Steel or painted finishes.

Ensure that all parts are well rinsed and thor­oughly dried before attempting to replace the
outer door.

Warning! If the door glass panel
becomes chipped or has deep
scratches the glass will be weakened
and must be replaced to prevent the
possibility of the panel shattering.
Please contact your local Service Force
Centre who will be pleased to advise fur­ther.

To replace the inner door glass

1. To ensure the glass is properly located
the text 'This side up' should be facing
towards you at the top edge of the door
and facing into the cavity.

2. Holding the glass with both hands, gently
slide the glass into the side trims of the
oven door.

3. To replace the trim, line up the clips on
the underside of the trim with the con­nectors at the top of the door.

4. Carefully slide the trim towards the door.

5. Ensure the trim is securely in place before
closing the oven door.

Warning! Do not attempt to use the
oven without the glass being in place.

Replacing an oven light bulb

The type of bulb required is a 300°C 25 watt
small Edison Screw.

Warning! Disconnect the appliance
from the electricity supply before
replacing the bulb.

1. Make sure the appliance is cool before
replacing the bulb.

electrolux 19

2. Open the door and remove the shelves
