Operation
Hob Burners
To light a burner:
● push the electric ignition pushbutton which is marked
by a little spark;
● at the same time turn the relevant control knob
anticlockwise to maximum position;
● then adjust the flame as required.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to
zero, and try again.
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only
use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the size of
the burner used (see table).
Burner minimum maximum
diameter diameter
Large (rapid) 180 mm. 260 mm.
Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm. 220 mm.
Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
recommended size, the flame will spread
beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the
handle to overheat.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the
flame so that it will barely keep the liquid
simmering.
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat,
as the overheated splashes could easily
ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn,
please contact your local Electrolux Service
Centre.
Maintenance and Cleaning
The Burners
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be
carried out, you must DISCONNECT the hob
from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as
spillage can be removed more easily than if it is
left to cool.
The Hob Top
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.
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.
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 necessay, remove stubborn stains using a paste
cleaner.
