INTRODUCTION RATING PLATE COOKWARE Record the model, product and serial numbers of your cooker on the back cover of this instruction book. These numbers can be found on the lower front frame of the cooker upon opening the main oven door. Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven. Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm x 35cm (12" x 14") as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance.
GRILL AND OVEN FURNITURE The following items of grill and 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 main oven. When you first switch the electricity supply on, the timer display will flash.
AUTOMATIC CONTROL Important: You can only use the automatic control for the main oven. 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 DUAL GRILL CAUTION - ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT WHEN THE GRILL IS IN USE. CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. The grill is a dual circuit grill which means that the whole area of the grill can be used or, for economy purposes the centre section only can be used when cooking smaller quantities of food. SELECTING THE DUAL GRILL Ensure your hand is protected when removing the grill pan handle as the grill element can become very hot.
HINTS AND TIPS l l l l l l GRILLING CHART In order to become acquainted with the performance of the Dual Grill it is advisable to check food regularly when grilling. 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. Most food should be placed on the grill pan grid in the 'high' position in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air around the food.
THE TOP OVEN USES OF THE TOP OVEN The top oven is the smaller of the two ovens. It is heated by elements in the top and bottom of the oven. It is designed for cooking smaller quantities of food. It gives especially good results if used to cook fruit cakes, sweet and savoury flans or quiche. The top oven is also ideal for use as a warming compartment to warm dishes and keep food hot. Use a temperature setting of 90° - 100°C on the top oven temperature control.
l l l l l l There should always be at least 2.5cm (1") between the top of the food and the element. This gives best cooking results and allows room for rise in yeast mixtures, Yorkshire puddings etc. When cooking cakes, pastry, scones, bread etc., place the tins or baking trays centrally below the element. Ensure that food is placed centrally on the shelf and there is sufficient room around the baking tray/dish to allow for maximum circulation.
THE MAIN FAN OVEN USES OF THE FAN OVEN 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. For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, soufflés, etc., best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first. For best results when cooking frozen or cooked chilled ready meals always preheat the oven first.
HINTS AND TIPS l Arrange the shelves in the required positions before switching the oven ON. Shelves are numbered from the bottom upwards. l l l l l l When cooking more than one dish in the fan oven, place dishes centrally on different shelves rather than cluster several dishes on one shelf, this will allow the heat to circulate freely for the best cooking results. When batch baking one type of food, e.g. Victoria sandwich cakes, those of similar size will be cooked in the same time.
OVEN COOKING CHART The oven temperatures are intended as a guide only. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the temperatures by 10°C to suit individual preferences and requirements.

DEFROSTING USES OF DEFROST FEATURE This main oven function defrosts most foods faster than more conventional methods. 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. A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be thawed in approximately 5 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 ALWAYS ALLOW THE COOLING FAN TO COOL THE COOKER DOWN BEFORE SWITCHING OFF AT 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 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. TO REPLACE THE OUTER GLASS 1. Open the oven door with care and place in the park position at an angle of approximately 30°. The outer door glass is removable for cleaning. TO REMOVE THE OUTER GLASS 1. Open the oven door slightly to gain access to the two cross head screws on the top of the oven door. 2.
CARE OF STAYCLEAN SURFACES Stayclean surfaces destroy splashes of food and fats when the oven temperature is raised to around 220°C. It is a good idea to run the oven for an hour or two per week to ensure continued good performance from the Stayclean finish. HINTS AND TIPS l Manual cleaning of Stayclean is not recommended. Damage will occur if oven sprays or abrasives of any kind are used. REPLACING THE OVEN LIGHT BULB The type of bulb required is a 300C 25 watt small Edison Screw.
SOMETHING NOT WORKING? Before calling an Engineer please carry out the following checks, you may be able to solve the problem without the expense of an Engineer. The oven temperature is too high or low. * Check that the recommended temperatures are being used (see page 24). Be prepared to adjust up or down by 10°C to achieve the results you want. * Care should be taken if using an oven thermometer to check oven temperatures as they may be inaccurate.
