SAFETY THESE WARNINGS ARE PROVIDED IN THE INTERESTS OF YOUR SAFETY. ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THEM ALL BEFORE INSTALLING OR USING THE COOKER. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLATION This cooker is heavy and care must be taken when moving it. Ensure that all packaging, both inside and outside the cooker has been removed before the appliance is used. Do Not try to lift or move the cooker by pulling the door handles. Refer to installation instructions.
Ensure that you support the grill pan when it is in the withdrawn or partially withdrawn position. Cookers and hobs become very hot, and retain their heat for a long period of time after use. Children should be kept well away from the cooker until it has cooled. Ensure that all vents are left unobstructed to ensure ventilation of the oven cavity. Ensure that the anti-tilt shelves are put in place correctly. Refer to instructions on page 21. Never line any part of the cooker with aluminium foil.

HOW TO FINISH UNPACKING l l l l Place packed cooker next to the cabinet in which it will be installed. Carefully score down from each end of the cable sheathing along the length of the bare earth wire (if a cut was made along the length of the live and neutral wires, it might cut into their sheathing) to the cuts already made. Remove the cooker packing except for bottom tray which should be left in position until the cooker is ready to be fitted into its cabinet.
l Lift cover and remove screw from cable clamp. See Fig. 7. l l Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm of the outer insulation is inside the terminal block and that the wires are not taught but not so slack as to cause any fouling. See Fig.8. Place fuse/ miniature circuit breaker in circuit and switch on at mains. CONNECTING TO A HOB OR COOKER POINT l Either follow in general terms the instructions for connecting to the terminal block or refer to the hob suppliers installation instructions.
FITTING INTO THE CABINET IMPORTANT: Ensure that the oven is switched off at the wall before any further work is carried out. l l l l l Using a tape measure establish the internal width of the cabinet. Refer to page 7 if greater than 565mm. Position the cooker in front of the cabinet. See Fig. 9. Take out all oven furniture before installation to reduce the weight you need to lift. The oven door should be taped up to keep it closed whilst lifting. Fig.

RATING PLATE THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS Record the model, product and serial numbers on the back cover of this instruction book from the rating plate. This is situated on the lower front frame of the cooker and can be seen upon opening the oven door. The cooling fan comes on immediately when the grill is switched on and after a short time when the oven is in use. During the initial period the cooling fan may turn ON and OFF, this is quite normal.
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE The following items of oven furniture have been supplied with the cooker. If you require replacements of any of the items listed below please contact your local Service Force Centre, quoting the relevant part number. 1 grill pan (311409401) 1 grill pan handle (311468100) Note: If you require an additional handle for your grill pan, this can be ordered from your local Electrolux Service Force Centre by quoting part number 311479800\6.
THE OVEN TIMER Please note that this is a 24 hour clock, for example 2.00 pm is shown as 1400. In the following pages we explain how to set the controls. Read through them a few times until you are familiar with the procedure. If the oven is switched off on the wall, or there is a loss of power, the clock will stop and you will not be able to use the fan oven. When you first switch the electricity supply on, the timer display will flash.
AUTOMATIC CONTROL When you use the automatic controls for the first time it's probably best to choose a time when you are at home. That way you can check to make sure you've set everything correctly and you'll feel much more confident when you are away from home in the future. SETTING THE CONTROLS FOR AUTOMATIC USE This is very easy. All you have to do is work through the steps below. The clock will work out the rest for itself.
THE GRILL USES OF THE GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. Use the full heat grill only for foods which require high heat and short cooking times, e.g. toast, blue/rare steaks. Use thermal grilling to grill all other foods, e.g. bacon, chops, sausages, chicken joints, etc. See chart on page 25 for recommended cooking times, temperatures and shelf positions.
THINGS TO NOTE THE OVEN DOOR MUST BE LEFT OPEN DURING GRILLING l l To remove the handle, slide the handle to the right and lift the handle away from the cut out on the grill pan. The cooling fan for the controls will operate when grilling. The oven/grill indicator neon will illuminate. FITTING THE SHELF 1. Ensure the telescopic runners are pushed back into the oven cavity before fitting the shelf. 2.
THE FAN OVEN USES OF THE FAN OVEN The oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven, the element heats the air which is circulated into the oven via the vents in the back panel. The advantages of fanned oven cooking are: PREHEATING The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature, so it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven. Without preheating, however, you may find you need to add an extra 5-10 minutes on the recommended cooking times.
THINGS TO NOTE l l l The oven neon will glow until the oven has reached the desired temperature and then go out. It will turn ON and OFF periodically during cooking showing that the temperature is being maintained. When batch baking one type of food, e.g. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time. The oven fan will operate continually during cooking.

THERMAL GRILLING USES OF THERMAL GRILLING Thermal grilling offers an alternative method of cooking food items normally associated with conventional grilling. The grill element and the oven fan operate together, circulating hot air around the food. The need to check and turn food is reduced. Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells in the kitchen and allows you to grill with the oven door closed. The lower part of the oven can be used to cook accompaniments at the same time, e.g.
HINTS AND TIPS l Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional grilling. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or butter to keep them moist during cooking. l A temperature range of 140-220°C and shelf positions 3 and 4 are suitable for most foods. Be prepared to make suitable adjustments during cooking to suit individual requirements. If thermal grilling on more than one level, it may be necessary to interchange the food on the shelves during cooking.
DEFROSTING USES OF DEFROST FEATURE This function enables you to defrost most foods faster than some conventional methods as the oven fan circulates air around the food. It is particularly suitable for delicate frozen foods which are to be served cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits, scones etc. Small or thin fish fillets, frozen peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver, thin chops, steaks etc., can be thawed in 1 - 2 hours.
HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND PREPARING FOOD Care must be taken when handling foods in the home. Always follow the basic rules of food hygiene to prevent bacterial and microbial growth and cross contamination when preparing, reheating, cooking, cooling, defrosting and freezing foods. 1. Always ensure food you purchase is of good quality and in prime condition. Shop at a reliable source and buy the 'freshest' looking package avoid shop worn labels or produce covered in dust. 2.
CARE AND CLEANING BEFORE CLEANING THE COOKER ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE COOKER DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. CLEANING MATERIALS Before using any cleaning materials on your cooker, 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.
CLEANING THE GRILL DEFLECTOR, GRILL PAN, GRILL PAN GRID AND OVEN SHELVES All removable parts, except the grill pan handle wirework and telescopic runners can be washed in the dishwasher. Alternatively soak them in hot soapy water if heavily soiled. They will then clean more easily. The grill pan, and grill deflector may be cleaned using a soap impregnated steel wool pad. The grill pan grid and oven shelves should be cleaned using hot soapy water. Soaking first in soapy water will make cleaning easier.
CLEANING BETWEEN THE OUTER AND INNER DOOR GLASS Under no circumstances should the door assembly be detached from the product for cleaning. Please refer to the cleaning instructions. 4. Tighten the screws positively with a Pozidrive screwdriver before closing the oven door. DO NOT attempt to use the oven without the glass being in place. The outer door glass is removable for cleaning. TO REMOVE THE OUTER GLASS 1.
