Before using the oven for the first time
Remove all packaging, both inside and
outside the oven, before using the oven.
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.
)1. Switch the oven function control knob to fan cooking .
2.Set the thermostat control knob to 250°.
4.Open a window for ventilation.
5.Allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes.
This procedure should be repeated with the full grillfunction for approximately 5-10 minutes.
Then let the oven cool down. Then
dampen a soft cloth with warm water and a little mild washing-up liquid and use this to clean the oven cavity.
Before using for the first time, carefully wash the oven accessories as well.
To open the oven door, always hold the handle in the centre.

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.

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 Element
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.
electrolux 11
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..
Top oven element only
This function is suitable for finishing cooked dishes, e.g. lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower cheese
etc.
Bottom oven element only
This function is particularly useful when blindbaking 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.
-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
11
12 electrolux
setting,heatcomesfromboththetopandbottom 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.
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.

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.
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°C-175°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
electrolux 13
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.
