SAFETY INFORMATION
If the product is damaged
If the product has been damaged during
transportation, you should immediately noti-
fy the company responsible for delivering it.
Check the Compactkitchen carefully for any
damage. If you discover any damage, de-
fects or that anything is missing, you should
notify the seller immediately. Never leave
packaging material in a place where chil-
dren may play with it.
When lifting the Compactkitchen
Take care when lifting the Compactkitchen.
Incorrect methods of lifting can cause phys-
ical injuries and also increase the risk of
damage to the product.
x2
Leveling
The Compactkitchen must be installed on a
firm, stable surface and levelled. Use a spirit
level and adjust the level with the aid of the
three adjustable front feet.
Child safety
The kitchen should be used by adults on-
ly. Do not let children play with the hot-
plate controls or other parts of it.
Make sure that children will not under any
circumstances touch the hotplates or
cooking utensils on them when hot. Turn
all pan handles inwards to reduce the risk
of young children pulling pans over. Re-
member that the hotplates can remain
very hot for a long time after they are
switched off.
Warning! Remember that the plastic
bags included in the packaging can be
fatal playthings for small children.
Important notes before installation
Before you install and start to use the Com-
pactkitchen, read through the instruction
book carefully, including its hints and warn-
ings. This helps ensure you get the best
possible performance from the product.
Anyone using the Compactkitchen should
be thoroughly familiar with its instructions
for use and safety features. Save these in-
structions and make sure they remain with
the Compactkitchen if it is moved or sold,
so any subsequent owners will be able to
read about its functions and safe use.
Other safety precautions
All packaging must be removed before
the product is first used. Failure to do this
could result in damage to the product or
other property.
All installation work and repairs or other
work on the product must be carried out
by a qualified tradesman. Work per-
formed by persons with inadequate
10 electrolux
knowledge may adversely affect the sat-
isfactory functioning of the product and
may cause personal injury or damage.
The Compactkitchen is heavy, so take
care when moving it.
Make sure that the Compactkitchen is
not left resting on any electrical leads.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by a special cord or assembly
available from the manufacturer or its
service agent.
The Compactkitchen is designed only for
normal domestic use and in accordance
with these instructions. If it is used for
other purposes, there is a risk that this
may cause personal injury or damage to
property.
The Compactkitchen is to be installed in-
doors, in an ambient temperature which
should be between 10°C and 32°C. It
should preferably not be installed in a
busy hallway or corridor.
The Compactkitchen should be used by
adults or under adult supervision only.
Never allow children to play with the hot-
plate controls or to touch any other con-
trols.
Do not place in the freezer compartment
any bottles of liquid which would expand
when frozen and cause the bottle to
shatter.
In the event of a power cut, avoid open-
ing the refrigerator door. If the freezer
compartment is completely full, frozen
foods in it will not be affected by a short
power cut (3–4 hours). If frozen foods
have started to defrost, however, it is ad-
visable to use them as soon as possible.
When defrosting the refrigerator, do not
use candles, hairdryers or fan heaters. If
you use a saucepan of hot water for de-
frosting, do not let it touch the plastic
walls or rest on the bottom of the refriger-
ator. Any frozen foods removed tempora-
rily from the freezer compartment should
be kept in a well-insulated container to
keep them as cold as possible. Remem-
ber that the storage life of frozen foods
will be reduced if they are not kept cold
enough when you are defrosting the re-
frigerator.
Never use knives or other sharp objects
to remove ice when defrosting, as these
could easily damage the refrigeration
coils.
Never stand on the sink top.
Do not use steam cleaner.
Always check that the hotplates are
switched off after use.
If the refrigerator is not used, its door
should be left ajar. This keeps its door
seal in good condition besides preventing
any unpleasant odours or moulds from
arising inside it.
Before any repairs or maintenance are
carried out, make sure the Compact-
kitchen is isolated from the electrical sup-
ply by unplugging it from the electrical
sockets.
Servicing and repairs may only be carried
out by a service company approved by
the supplier. Use only spare parts sup-
plied by these. Never try to repair the
product yourself.
At the end of the Compactkitchen's use-
ful life, disconnect the electrical plugs
from the power supply, then cut off the
electrical leads at the point where they
enter the product. Cut-off plugs and
leads must be immediately destroyed or
disposed of safely so that there is no
chance that children will ever play with
them. Remove the refrigerator door to re-
move the risk of children later playing in-
side it and possibly suffocating.
Important! Frozen foods should not be
kept for longer than the time indicated on
the packaging for storage at -12°C. If
frozen foods have thawed, they should not
be frozen again but used as soon as
possible.
Warning! Make sure that children will
not under any circumstances touch the
hotplates or cooking utensils on them
when hot. Turn all pan handles inwards
to reduce the risk of young children
pulling pans over. Remember that the
hotplates can remain very hot for a
long time after they are switched off.
Warning! Never leave any combustible
objects on the hotplates, even if you
never use the hotplates. Electrical
appliances and leads must always be
kept well clear of the hotplates.

Warning! Never store flammable
substances (such as methylated spirits,
lighter fluid, white spirit) in the
Compactkitchen storage cupboard.

DAILY USE
Refrigerator
Initially turn the thermostat control to a set-
ting somewhere in the middle (3–4), then
adjust if necessary after a day or so to
maintain a temperature of approx. +5°C.
The higher the number, the lower the tem-
perature inside the refrigerator.
The defrosting tray below the freezer com-
partment is also used to regulate the tem-
perature distribution between refrigerator
and freezer compartment. If the tray is lifted
and slid towards the rear wall, this will lower
the temperature inside the freezer compart-
ment and raise the temperature in the re-
frigerator section. If you keep frozen foods
in the freezer compartment, the defrosting
tray should be left in its rear position.
Hotplates control knobs (for selected
models only)
The hotplate control knobs on the edge of
the sink top have seven settings: six tem-
perature settings and off (0). The hotplate
12 electrolux
indicator light comes on when either of the
hotplates is switched on.
Anti-corrosion product (for selected
models only)
The hotplates have had an anti-corrosion
product applied in the factory. This will pro-
vide more effective protection if you heat
the hotplates without pans the first time,
when the Compactkitchen is brand-new.
Before using the Mini Kitchen for the very
first time, switch on both hotplates (use set-
ting 4) and leave them on for 10 minutes.
Then let them cool completely before they
are used for cooking.
Cookware precutions
Make sure that all pans used on the hot-
plates have perfectly flat bases, as these
are the most efficient in conducting heat. To
save both energy and time, try wherever
possible to use a pan with a base of the
same diameter as the hotplate.
The timer function
All Compactkitchens with hotplates also
have a built-in timer function. The hotplates
will not start to heat until the timer has been
started. The timer cannot be set for longer
than 60 minutes. If you need the hotplate
for longer than 60 minutes you simply re-
start the timer. The timer is useful if you
wish to set the hotplate to switch off auto-
matically after a certain cooking time. After
you have set the timer, switch the hotplate
control to the required setting (6 is hottest).
The hotplate indicator light will come on.
When the time set has elapsed, the timer
will switch off the hotplate and the indicator
light will go out. Remember to turn the hot-
plate control back to off (0) when you have
finished using any hotplate.
CARE AND CLEANING
Defrosting
A build-up of ice on the refrigeration coils
cannot be avoided. This ice arises because
the moisture from air entering the refrigera-
tor condenses on the refrigeration coils and
freezes. To minimise it, avoid opening the
freezer compartment unless you need to,
and do not leave the refrigerator door open
for longer than necessary.
You should defrost the refrigerator when
the layer of ice is about 5–10 mm thick, as
follows:
1. Take the frozen food out of the freezer
compartment, pack it (for example) in
newspaper to keep it insulated, then put
it in a cool place.
2. Put a bowl on the top shelf beneath the
hole in the defrosting tray, to catch the
water as it melts.
3. Switch off the refrigerator by turning its
thermostat control to the left, to the off
position (black dot).
4. When you have finished defrosting turn
the thermostat control back to the re-
quired temperature.
5. When the refrigerator has started work-
ing again the bowl of water can be re-
moved and the frozen food can be put
back in the freezer compartment.
Cleaning the refrigerator
Isolate the refrigerator from the electrical
supply by disconnecting the plug from the
socket. Remove all the food and put it
somewhere cool. Clean the interior and ex-
terior of the refrigerator using water and a
suitable mild, unperfumed cleaning product.
Close the door, plug in and switch on the
electricity. The food can be put back after
10–20 minutes. The hotplates, sinktop and
other parts can also be cleaned using warm
water and a mild cleaning product.
Replacing the bulb inside the
refrigerator
The bulb is located on the rear of the ther-
mostat housing, on the right inside the re-
frigerator.
To replace the bulb:
1. Isolate the refrigerator from the electrical
supply by disconnecting the plug from
the socket.
electrolux 13
2. Take out the defrosting tray from under
the freezer compartment.
3. Take hold of the bulb by inserting your
fingers from the rear, behind the bulb
cover. Unscrew the bulb by turning it
anticlockwise.
4. The bulb should be marked 230 V 10 W
and have an E 14 cap.
If the refrigerator is to be left unused
1. Isolate the refrigerator from the electrical
supply by disconnecting the plug from
the socket.
2. Empty the refrigerator.
3. Clean it.
4. Leave the refrigerator door ajar to pre-
vent any unpleasant odour.
If the hotplates are to be left unused
1. Clean the hotplates thoroughly.
2. Apply to the hotplates either acid-free
petroleum jelly or a proprietary product
for maintaining hotplates.
If you used petroleum jelly, before using the
hotplates for cooking again you should first
heat them without pans for 5 minutes on
setting 3. If you used a proprietary product
for hotplates, follow the instructions sup-
plied with that.
WHAT TO DO IF…
Problem Check
The hotplates will not heat. Is the Compactkitchen plugged in and switch-
ed on?
Has a fuse blown or a circuit breaker tripped?
Have you switched on both the hotplate con-
trol and the timer control correctly?
The refrigerator is not working properly. Is the thermostat control on a suitable setting?
Has the refrigerator door been fully closed?
Does the freezer compartment need defrost-
ing?
If you have made all the relevant checks
above but your Compactkitchen is still not
working properly, you should call a service
engineer.
If you cannot find a solution to the problem
yourself, contact your dealer or the service
centre.
The necessary data for the service centre is
on the rating plate. The rating plate is on
the front frame of the oven cavity.
We recommend that you write the data here:

Important points to note on installation
It must be possible to pull the Compact-
kitchen out from the wall for any service or
repair work. You should therefore avoid fit-
ting any details such as tiles resting on the
Compactkitchen which will make it difficult
to move later. The electrical sockets need
to be easily accessible, as illustrated.
Choice of site
The Compactkitchen should not be sited in
a hallway or corridor, or any place with
many passers-by. The Compactkitchen
should not be sited so its refrigerator side is
close to a heat source such as a radiator,
nor should it be in direct sunlight. It needs a
stable surface for its six feet. The minimum
distance allowed between the hotplates
and any cupboard above them made from
combustible materials is 45 cm.
Door adjustment (selected models
only)
Side adjustment: Turn screw A right or
left.
Depth adjustment: Factory adjusted. Fur-
ther adjustment may be made by loosening
screw B. For products with a refrigerator,
screw B is accessible on the refrigerator
side only after the door has been removed
(by using the snap function on the hinges).
Height adjustment: Factory adjusted
(screws C + a concealed locking screw).
Removing the doors: Easily carried out
with the aid of the snap function of the rear
ends of the hinges.
