Operation

HOB BURNERS

To light a burner, turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise to maximum position. At the same time push the electric ignition button which is marked with a little spark. Upon ignition, keep the knob pushed down about 5 seconds, then adjust the flame as required. If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, and try again.

When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is quite normal

for the spark generator to be activated automatically.

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) 160 mm. 260 mm. Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm. 240 mm. Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm. 160 mm. Central (2 crown) 180 mm. 260 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.

Electric Oven

Oven Function Control Knob

Oven Light - The oven light will be on without any cooking function

Conventional cooking - The heat comes from both the top and bottom element, ensuring even

heating inside the oven. Fan cooking and defrost setting - This function

allows you to roast or roast and bake simoultaneously using any shelf. It can also be used to assist in thrawing of frozen food (see page 12).

Grill - The heat comes only from the top element.

Thermostat Control Knob

OFF

Turn the thermostat control knob clockwise to select temperatures between 50°C and 250°C (MAX).

Minute minder

The minute minder will mark the end of a timed period with an acoustic alarm. The maximum timing is 60 minutes.

Turn the Minute Minder knob clockwise to the maximum time position, then turn it back to the required time.

The Minute minder will not affect in any way the oven operation, if it is in use.

Before the First Use of the Oven

Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the oven, before using the oven.

Before first use, the oven should be heated without food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.

☞

This procedure should be repeated with the fan cooking and grill function for approximately 5-10 minutes.

1. Switch the oven function control knob to conventional cooking

2. Set the thermostat control knob to MAX.

3. Open a window for ventilation.

4. Allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes.

Using the Oven

• 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.

• The oven has four shelf levels, and is

supplied with two shelves. Level 2 and 4 from the bottom are supplied with special telescopic shelf supports (see next page).

4 3 2 1

The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven as shown in the diagram.

• Do not place cookware directly on the oven base.

Your oven is supplied with one normal shelf for use on the telescopic shelf supports and one anti-tip shelf.

NORMAL SHELF

The anti-tip shelf has four small metal tabs on its frame to prevent it from sliding out from the shelf supports.

ANTI-TIP SHELF

metal tabs

Telescopic shelf supports

The oven shelf supports are provided with telescopic shelf supports at level 2 and 4 from the bottom.

☞

1. Pull the right and left hand telescopic shelf supports completely out, as shown in the diagram.

2. Place the shelf or the dripping pan on the telescopic shelf supports, as shown in the diagram, then gently push them all inside the oven.

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.

The anti-tip shelf is not designed for use on the telescopic shelf supports. Please, do not use the anti-tip shelf on the telescopic shelf supports, as it will be unstable and may fall.

Hints and Tips

Condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the oven when opening the oven door 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 oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven. To prevent discoloration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

Cookware

• Use any oven proof cookware which will

withstand temperatures of 250°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 x 35 cm (12 in x 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 underneath browning.

B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium,

aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and underneath browning.

Using the Conventional Oven

When using this setting, heat comes from both the top and bottom elements. This allows you to cook on a single level and is particularly suitable for dishes which require extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans. Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven. This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan in operation.

How to Use the

☞

Conventional Oven

1. Turn the oven function control knob to the required cooking function (

2. Turn the thermostat control to the required temperature.

THINGS TO NOTE

●

The oven light will come on when the oven function control knob is set.

●

The thermostat control light will remain on until the correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on and off to show that temperature is being maintained.

Hints and Tips

The middle shelf position allows for the best heat distribution. To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf position.

The material and finish of the baking trays and dishes used will affect base browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base browning, while oven glassware, shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning.

Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure even browning.

Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to prevent spillage onto the base of the oven and make cleaning easier.

Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays directly on the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.

For faster preheating use the fan oven function to preheat the oven until the oven indicator neon goes out, then swich the selector to the conventional oven setting.

Single level cooking gives best results. If you

require more than one level cooking use the fan oven function.
