Warnings and Important Safety Information
Always keep these user instructions with the appliance. Should the appliance be passed on to third persons or sold, or if you leave this appliance behind when you move house, it is very important that the new user has access to these user instructions and the accompanying information.
These warnings are provided for the safety of the users and those living with them. So read them carefully before connecting and/or using the appliance.
Installation
The installation must be performed by a
qualified person in accordance with the rules
and regulations in force. The individual
operations for installing the appliance are
described under the instructions for the instal-
ler.
Have the appliance installed and connected
by a qualified person with specialist
knowledge, who will carry it out in accordance
with the directives.
If any modifications to the power supply are
required because of the installation, these
should also be carried out by a qualified
electrician.
Operation
This oven is designed for cooking foodstuffs;
never use it for other purposes.
When opening the oven door during or at
the end of cooking be careful of the stream
of hot air, which comes out of the oven.
Be very careful when using the cooker. The
extreme heat of the heating elements makes
the shelves and other parts very hot.
If you should for whatever reason use alumi-
nium foil to cook food in the oven, never allow
it to come into direct contact with the floor of
the oven.
When cleaning the oven, proceed with care:
never spray anything onto the grease filter (if
fitted), the heating elements and the thermos-
tat sensor.
If is dangerous to make modifications of any kind to this appliance or to its specifications.
During the baking, roasting and grilling process, the oven window and the other parts of the appliance get hot, so children should be kept away from the appliance. Take care, if connecting electrical appliances to sockets near the oven, that cables do not come into contact with hot rings or get caught in the oven door.
Always use oven gloves to take hot ovenproof dishes or pots out of the oven.
Regular cleaning prevents the surface material from deteriorating.
Before cleaning the oven, either turn the power off or pull the mains plug out.
Make sure that the oven is in the “OFF” posi­tion, when the oven is no longer being used.
This oven was made as a single appliance or as a combination appliance with electrical hotplate, depending on the model, for single­phase connection to 230 V.
The appliance must not be cleaned with a superheated steam cleaner or a steam jet cleaner.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers. These can scratch the glass in the oven door, which may result in the shattering of the glass.

Safety Thermostat
To prevent dangerous overheating (through
incorrect use of the appliance or defective components), the oven is fitted with a safety thermostat, which interrupts the power supply. The oven switches back on again automatically, when the temperature drops.
Should the safety thermostat trigger due to
incorrect use of the appliance, it is enough to remedy the error after the oven has cooled down; if on the other hand, the thermostat triggers because of a defective component, please contact Customer Service.
The cooling fan
The cooling fan is designed to cool the the oven and the control panel. The fan switches on automatically after a few minutes of cooking. Warm air is blown out through the aperture near the oven door handle. When the oven is switched off, the fan may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.
The action of the cooling fan will depend on how long the oven has been used and at what temperature. It may not switch in at all at lower temperature settings nor run on where the oven has only been used for a short time.
Before using the oven for the first time
Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the oven, before using the oven.
The oven will work only if the time of day has been set (please read the relevantinstructions).
Before using for the first time, the oven should
be heated up without food.
During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is absolutely normal. It is caused by manufacturing residues.
Ensure the room is well ventilated.

Using the oven
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 opening the oven door. This is absolutely normal.
However, 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. Attention! - Do not place objects on the oven base and do not cover any part of the oven with aluminium foil while cooking, as this could cause a heat build-up which would affect the baking results and damage the oven enamel. Always place pans, heat-resisting pans and aluminium trays on the shelf which has been inserted in the shelf runners.When food is heated, steam is created, like in a kettle. When the steam comes into contact with the glass in the oven door, it condenses and creates water droplets.
To reduce condensation, always preheat the empty oven for 10 minutes.
We recommend you wipe the water droplets away after every cooking process.
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. The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven as shown in the diagram. It is important that these shelves are correctly positioned as shown in the diagram. Do not place cookware directly on the oven base.

Fan cooking
- The food is cooked by means of preheated air force blown evenly round the inside of the oven by a fan set on the rear wall of the oven itself.
- Heat thus reaches all parts of the oven evenly and fast and this means that you can simulta­neously cook different types of foods positioned on the various oven shelves . Fan cooking ensures rapid elimination of moisture and the dryer oven environment stops the different aromas and flavours from being transmitted from one food to another.
- The possibility of cooking on several shelf heights means that you can cook several different dishes at the same time and up to three tins of biscuits and mini pizzas to be eaten immediately or subsequently deep frozen.
- Naturally the oven can also be used for cooking on just one shelf. In this case you should use the lowest set of runners so that you can keep an eye on progress more easily.
- In addition, the oven is particularly recommended for sterilizing preserves, cooking home-made fruit in syrup, and for drying mushrooms or fruit.
Grilling -
- Most foods should be placed on the grid in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air and to lift the food out of the fats and juices. Food such as fish, liver and kidneys may be placed directly on the grill pan, if preferred.
- 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, we suggest that the top runner position is used.
- The food should be turned over during cooking, as required.
How to use the Full Grill
1. Turn the oven control function knob on .
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required temperature.
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow for different thicknesses of food. Position the food close to the element for faster cooking and further away for more gentle cooking. 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.
During cooking, the cooling fan and the
thermostat control light will operate in the same way as described for the fan oven function.
How to use the Inner Grill
The inner grill provides quick direct heat to the
central area of the grill pan. By using the inner grill element for cooking small quantities, it can help to save energy.
1. Turn the oven control function knob on .
2. Turn the thermostat control knob on the required temperature.
3. Adjust the grid and grill pan runner position to allow for different thicknesses of food and follow the instructions for grilling.
The grill element is controlled by the
thermostat. During cooking, the grill cycles on and off to prevent overheating..
Bottom oven element only
This function is particularly useful when blind-
baking pastry. It may also be used to finish off quiches or flans to ensure the base pastry is cooked through.
The thermostat control light will remain on until the correct temperature is reached. It will then cycle on and off to show the temperature is being maintained.
Conventional Cooking
- 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.
15
16 electrolux
- 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.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 quiches and flans. Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require
extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven.
How to use the conventional oven
1. Turn the oven function control knob to the required cooking function .
2. Turn the thermostat control knob to the required temperature.
Pizza
1. Turn the oven function control knob to the
required cooking function .
2. Turn the thermostat control knob to the required temperature.
The bottom element provides direct heat to the base of pizzas, quiches or pies, while the fan ensures air is circulated to cook the pizza toppings or pie fillings.
Hints and Tips
On baking:
Cakes and pastries usually require a medium
temperature (150°C-200°C) and therefore it is necessary to preheat the oven for about 10 minutes.
Do not open the oven door before 3/4 of the
baking time has elapsed.
Shortcrust pastry is baked in a springform tin or
on a tray for up to 2/3 of the baking time and then garnished before being fully baked. This further baking time depends on the type and amount of topping or filling. Sponge mixtures must separate with difficulty from the spoon. The baking time would be unnecessarily extended by too much liquid.
16
electrolux 17
If two baking trays with pastries or biscuits are
inserted into the oven at the same time, a shelf level must be left free between the trays.
If two baking trays with pastries or biscuits are
inserted into the oven at the same time, the trays must be swapped and turned around after about 2/3 of the baking time.
On Roasting:
Do not roast joints smaller than 1 kg. Smaller
pieces could dry out when roasting. Dark meat, which is to be well done on the outside but remain medium or rare inside, must be roasted at a higher temperature (200°C-250°C).
White meat, poultry and fish, on the other
hand, require a lower temperature (150°C­175°C). The ingredients for a sauce or gravy should only be added to the roasting pan right at the beginning if the cooking time is short. Otherwise add them in the last half hour.
You can use a spoon to test whether the meat
is cooked: if it cannot be depressed, it is cooked through. Roast beef and fillet, which is to remain pink inside, must be roasted at a higher temperature in a shorter time.
If cooking meat directly on the oven shelf,
insert the roasting pan in the shelf level below to catch the juices.
Leave the joint to stand for at least 15
minutes, so that the meat juices do not run out.
To reduce the build up of smoke in the oven,
it is recommended to pour a little water in the roasting pan. To prevent condensation forming, add water several times. The plates can be kept warm in the oven at minimum temperature until serving.
Caution! Do not line the oven with aluminium
foil and do not place a roasting pan or baking tray on the floor, as otherwise the oven enamel will be damaged by the heat build-up.
Cooking times
Cooking times can vary according to the different composition, ingredients and amounts of liquid in the individual dishes.
Note the settings of your first cooking or roasting experiments to gain experience for later preparation of the same dishes.
Based upon your own experiences you will be able to alter the values given in the tables.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Before cleaning switch the oven off and let it cool down.
The appliance must not be cleaned with a superheated steam cleaner or a steam jet cleaner.
Important: Before carrying out any cleaning
operation, the appliance must be disconnected from the power supply.
To ensure a long life for your appliance, it is necessary to perform the following cleaning operations regularly:
- Only perform when the oven has cooled
down.
- Clean the enamelled parts with soapy water.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Dry the stainless steel parts and glass with a
soft cloth.
- If there are stubborn stains, use commercially
available for stainless steel or warm vinegar.
The oven’s enamel is extremely durable and highly impermeable. The action of hot fruit acids (from lemons, plums or similar) can however leave permanent, dull, rough marks on the surface of the enamel. However such marks in the brightly polished surface of the enamel does not affect the operation of the oven. Clean the oven thoroughly after every use. This is the easiest way to clean dirt off. It prevents dirt being burnt on.
Cleaning materials
Before using any cleaning materials on your oven, 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 should also be avoided.
External cleaning
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and door seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little liquid detergent has been added.
To prevent damaging or weakening the door glass panels avoid the use of the following:
Household detergent and bleaches
Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick
saucepans
Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads
Chemical oven pads or aerosols
Rust removers
Bath/Sink stain removers
Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm soapy water. Should the inner door glass become heavily soiled it is recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob Brite is used. Do not use paint scrapers to remove soilage.
DO NOT clean the oven door while the glass panels are warm. If this precaution is not observed the glass panel may shatter.
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. Contact your local Service Force Centre who will be pleased to advise further.
