electrolux

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 discolouration, regularly wipe

away condensation and also soil age from

surfaces.

Cookware

Use any ovenproof cookware, which will

withstand temperatures of 250°C.

Oven dishes, etc. should not be placed

directly on the oven base.

Oven Cooking

• Turn off the oven 5 minutes before the

end of cooking time, and use residual

heat to complete the cooking.

• The thickness, the material and the

colour of the pan will influence the

cooking results.

• When cooking, certain dishes increase in

volume, ensure the pan is large enough.

• To prevent fat dripping when roasting

use tall rim pans proportional to the item

being roasted.

• Prick the skin of poultry and sausages

with a fork before cooking to avoid

spitting.

• Use heatproof glass dishes for soufflés.

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.

Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware

and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking

and base browning.

Enamelled cast iron, anodised aluminium,

aluminium with non-stick interior and

coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils

increase cooking and base browning.

Cooking / baking parameters

There are authoritative tables referring to the

cooking and baking conditions.

You can make same changes in it based on

your cooking and baking experience.

Remarks: The dripping pan can be

introduced on the first level in order to reach

more even browning.

The cooking / baking time can be different in

function of the quality, homogeneity,

quantity of the dishes. We propose to pay

attention at the firs cooking parameters,

check the cooking / baking quality and

correct the cooking / baking parameters in

order to reach the best results. Repeat the

cooking / baking of the same cakes in the

same conditions the results will be same

Cleaning and care

The oven should be kept clean at all

times. A build-up of fats or other

foodstuffs could result in a fire,

especially in the grill pan.

Before cleaning, ensure all control

knobs are in the OFF position, and the

appliance has cooled completely.

Before any maintenance or cleaning

can be carried out, you must

DISCONNECT the cooker from the

electricity supply.

Cleaning materials

Before using any cleaning materials on your

oven, check that they are suitable and that

the manufacturer recommends their use.

Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaning the

oven and hobs. Harsh abrasives should also

be avoided.

External cleaning

We recommend for cleaning cleaners that

do not scratch the surface; after that rinse

and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid use of metall

objects (knife, edge), steel wool or nylon

pads, abrasive or caustic products, or

diluents.

Cleaners that contain bleach should

NOT be used as they may dull the

surface finishes. Do not use a steam

cleaner for cleaner the oven and hobs.

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

washing up liquid has been added.

In the case of stainless steel parts, you may

use commercially available stainless steel

cleaners with care. These also provide a

protective film against finger marks.

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

• Chemical oven pads or aerosols

• Rust removers

• Bath/Sink stain removers

Oven Cavity

The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned

whilst the oven is still warm.

Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked

in warm soapy water after each use. From

time to time it will be necessary to do a

more thorough cleaning, using a proprietary

oven cleaner.

Cleaning the oven door

Removing oven door from its hinges

To make it easier to clean the oven, the

oven door can be removed.

electrolux

Open the oven door into the horizontal

position. Then lift up the clips on the two

door hinges as far as they will go (a).

Slowly close the door again as far as the

stop and lift the door until the hinges come

out (b).

Replacing the oven door on its hinges

When putting the door back on its hinges,

reverse the procedure for removing the door

from its hinges.

Re-insert the door’s hinges into the slots (c).

When you do this, make sure the hinges

engage properly and evenly.

Then slowly lower the door downwards.

When you do this, make sure the corners of

the door do not touch the bottom of the

frame (if this happens, lift the door up again

and realign the hinges).

Finally fold the clips back down towards the

oven (d). So that the door closes properly,

press down on the clips with something

(e.g. a screwdriver) (e).

Slowly check the correct operation of the

door.

Important: Never leave the door hinge levers

standing up. Otherwise the spring action

can lead to injury.

DO NOT clean the oven door while

the glass panels are warm. If this precaution

is not observed the glass panel may shatter.

Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp

metal scrapers to clean the surface, which

may result in shatting of the glass.

electrolux

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.

Replace the nozzles of the hob burners

Before any modifications or adapt the

range to a kind of different gas, you must

DISCONNECT the cooker from the

electricity supply and ensure that all control

knobs are in the OFF position, and the

appliance has cooled completely.

Hob burners

• Remove the pan supports;

• Remove the caps and the burner

crowns;

• Using a No 7 socket spanner unscrew

the nozzles and replace them with

those required for the type of gas in use

(see table no. 1).

Reassemble the parts following the same

procedure in reverse.

These burners do not need any primary air

regulation.

Adjustment of minimum level for the

hob burners

The burner is correctly adjusted when the

flame is stable silent and goes out without

any noise.

When changing the type of gas check that

the minimum level is correct. The air

admission is correct when the flame is about

4 mm in length.

The top burners do not need adjustment of

primary air.

Check that, turning the knob quickly from

the maximum position to the minimum one,

the flame does not go out.

Flame adjustment

Oven burner

The burner is correctly adjusted when the

flame is stable, silent and goes out without

any noise.

• When the flames are too short, the

nozzle is whistling or the flames have the

tendency to detach from the burner, it

means that there is too much air in the

valve. If there is too much air there is a

risk that the flames will extinguish.

• But, if the flames are too long, soft,

lighting, there is not enough air in the

valves. These flames discolour the

bottom of pans.

• Loosen the fixing screw M.

• Move the air adjuster A forward or

backward until achieving the right

mixture;

• Tighten the fixing screw M.
