INSTALLATION
WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED
Any gas installation must be carried out by
a registered CORGI installer, and in
accordance with existing rules and
regulations.
Once the hob has been installed, it is
important to remove any protective
materials, which were put on in the factory.
The relevant instructions are to be found in the
second section of this manual.
Please, ensure that, once the hob is
installed, it is easily accessible for the
engineer in the event of a breakdown.

Operat ion
HOB BURNERS
To light a burner, turn the relevant knob
anticlockwise to maximum position and push down
the knob to ignite.
If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to
zero, and try again.
When switching on the mains, after
installation or a power cut, it is quite normal
for the spark generator to be activated
automatically.
i
To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should
only use pots and pans with a flat bottom fitting the
size of the burner used (see table).

Large (rapid)
Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm.
Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm.

240 mm.
220 mm.
160 mm.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than
the recommended size, the flame will spread
beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the
handle to overheat.
As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down
the flame so that it will barely keep the
liquid simmering.
i
Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat,
as the overheated splashes could easily
ignite.
If the control knobs become difficult to turn,
please contact your local Electrolux Service
Centre.

Main t en an ce an d Clean in g
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be
carried out, you must DISCONNECT the
hob from the electricity supply.
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as
spillage can be removed more easily than if it is left
to cool.
The Hob Top
Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth
well wrung out in warm water to which a little
wasing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the
following:
- household detergent and bleaches;
- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;
- steel wool pads;
- bath/sink stain removers.
Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is
recommended that a cleaning product such as Hob
Brite or Bar Keepers Friend is used.
Pan Supports
The hob has two cast iron pan supports.
Take care when removing them. They are fair heavy
and could damage the hob or your kitchen furniture if
you let them fall down.
To keep the pan supports in the correct position, they
are hooked into hinges at the back of the hob. When
removing the pan supports, lift them up as shown in
the diagram. Never turn the pan supports on the
hinges, this could damage them.
YES
Wash the pan supports using hot soapy water. If
necessary, a paste cleaner or a soap impregnated steel
wool pad can be used with caution.
NO
The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for
cleaning.
Wash the burners taps and crowns using hot soapy
water, and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A
well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can
be used with caution, if the marks are particularly
difficult to remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
