TESTING THE OPERATION OF 
THE GAS COOKER
NOTE: You MUST test the cooker after installation, before 
you hand it over to the customer.
You MUST have a manometer and a connecting tube.
Checking gas supply
1.  Check the manometer zero point is correct.
2.   Connect the manometer to the cooker pressure 
test point. This is located on the regulator or LPG/
Propane inlet fitting.
3.   Turn on the gas supply and the electricity and try to 
ignite the gas.
   NOTE: It will take additional time to light the gas for 
the first time as air needs to be purged from 
the pipes.
4.   Check the operating pressure for the particular 
gas type. For details, see “Connections” on page 11.
NOTE: For LPG/Propane cookers: Adjust the regulator if 
necessary (this may be remote from the cooker).
For Natural Gas cookers
Regulators are supplied pre-adjusted and configured 
by the component maker for use with Natural Gas. The 
appliance installer is not required to make an adjustment 
to obtain the correct outlet pressure setting.
An arrow on the base of the regulator indicates the 
direction of gas flow when the inlet and outlet of the 
regulator are orientated correctly. When the regulator 
has been fitted check for leaks from the connections 
with soapy water.
Checking the Function of the Regulator
With the appliance operating check the outlet pressure: 
•   When all burners of the appliance are operating 
at maximum, 
•   When the smallest burner of the appliance is 
operating at minimum.
Under these conditions the outlet pressure should not 
vary from the nominal outlet pressure by more than 
±20% of the nominal outlet pressure (ie ±0.20kPa for 
Natural Gas).
If the regulator appears to not be performing 
satisfactorily then check the following points.
1.   If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the 
inlet pressure may be too low and adjustment of an 
upstream regulator may be needed, or an upstream 
regulator or valve with insufficient flow capacity may 
be present in the gas supply line. If this is suspected 
then it may be necessary to repeat the checks whilst 
measuring both the inlet and outlet pressure to 
determine if the inlet pressure is in the range
1.13 – 5kPa.
2.   Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas 
supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on the 
base of the body indicates the direction of gas flow.
Once these checks have been completed, if the regulator 
still fails to perform in a satisfactory manner it should 
be replaced.
Testing the cooker features
•   Observe the flame appearance on each burner. If it 
is much smaller or larger than expected, then the 
injector size needs checking.
NOTE: When flame is unsatisfactory, then refer to the 
Electrolux Technical Publications and correct the fault, if 
possible.
When maximum flame appearance is correct, then check 
the turn-down setting on each burner. If the settings 
appear to be incorrect, proceed as follows:
1.   Adjust the bypass screw mounted on the body of 
each hotplate control cock. This is accessible when 
the control knob is removed. 
2.   Check the ignition on all burners both separately 
and in combination.
3.   Check the operation of the electrical components, 
if applicable.
4.   If you are satisfied that the cooker is operating 
correctly, then turn it off and show the customer 
how to use it. Make sure you ask the customer to 
operate the controls.
NOTE: If the cooker cannot be adjusted to perform 
correctly, then inform the customer of the problem and 
put a warning notice on the cooker. If the problem is 
dangerous, then disconnect the cooker. If there is a fault, 
then the customer should be advised to contact the 
manufacturer’s local service organisation or the retailer.
Fitting the grill dish (WFE532 only)
Separate Grill: Ensure rear of the dish is engaged with 
the side support before sliding backwards. To remove, 
simply 
pull forwards and upwards.
To ensure proper grill operation, slide the grill dish fully 
rearward to the stop.
To remove, simply pull forwards and upwards.

Air Fry (For WFE616 and WFE646 only)
The Air Fry fits into the oven supports (side runners) 
just as shelves
Grill in oven
(refer to Fitting Oven Shelves)  
The grill dish with wire insert can be used in any of the  
two upper height positions (shelf positions 4 and 5) 
between the runners.
NOTE: You must remove the grill dish when baking in 
the oven.

Preparing your appliance for the first time
•    Please remove all internal boxes and bags from the 
oven before operation.
•   Please wipe out the oven interior prior to operation 
with warm soapy water and polish dry with a soft 
clean cloth. Do not close the oven door until the oven  
is completely dry.
WARNING
CAUTION
•     Do not line the oven with foil as it will damage  
the enamel.
•     New appliances can have an odour during first use. It 
is recommended to ‘run in’ the oven before cooking 
for the first time Operate the oven(s), empty, at a 
temperature of 180°C for approximately 30 minutes. 
For appliances with a separate grill, run the grill on 
maximum for 15 minutes WITH GRILL DOOR OPEN 
Please ensure that the room is well ventilated during
this process.
Installing your oven accessories
Fitting oven shelves
1.     Ensure shelf orientation is correct (refer to diagram 
below).
2.     Slide oven shelves onto oven supports (side runners) 
at an angle until raised back of shelf is past the stop 
on oven supports (side runners).
3.     Lower front of shelf and push in until stop is reached.
4.     To remove oven shelves, withdraw to the stop and 
raise the front of shelf to clear the stop.
Note the orientation of the side 
and rear features
