The ceramic hob surface is resistant to extreme
temperatures. Neither cold nor heat can harm it. Avoid
to drop anything on the hob. Punctiform impacts, e.g.
by the fall of a salt shaker, can cause fissures and
cracks.
A defective hob surface allows overboiling food to
penetrate and the contact with live parts.
If any cracks appear on the hob surface, the hob has
to be switched off immediately. Disconnect the
appliance from the mains and inform the service
department.
ELECTROLUX declines any liability should the
appliance be used improperly and the safety measures
not be observed. Please note the maintenance and
cleaning instructions carefully.
Using other hobs than those of ELECTROLUX-Brand
excludes any liability.
Keep these operating and assembling
instructions!
Before using the hob for the first
time, read the operating and assem-
bly instructions carefully.
You protect yourself and avoid
damage of your appliance.
The appliance must be installed by a qualified
electrician.
Use the hob only upon its installation. This protects
you from touching electric parts.
Repairs of electric appliances must be undertaken
by qualified electricians only. Improper repairs can
cause serious harm and danger for the user.
The appliance is only disconnected from the mains
when the fuse is turned off or the mains connection is
interrupted.
Prevent little children from touching the cook top
when in use.
Children also can burn themselves by pulling pans or
pots off the hob.
The cooking zones heat up quickly when they are
turned on. Turn them on only when you have placed a
cooking pan onto the cooking area.
The residual heat indicator lights up to show if a
cooking zone is still running resp. is still hot.
If you use a socket close to the hob, take care that the
cable of the appliance does not touch the hot surface of
the hob.
Do not deposit any items on the hob's surface. The
items you place on the hob could easily catch fire when
turning on the hob accidentally.
Never leave the hob unattended when working with
oil and fats because of the danger of fire.
Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes. They melt
at high temperatures and damage the hob surface.
Sugar (solid or liquid) as well as plastic should never
get onto the hot surface of the hob. Fissures and cracks
may appear when the hob cools down. Spills of sugar
or melted plastic material must be removed while the
hob is still warm and before the remains have set.
Scrape off the remains of sugar or plastic with a scra-
per. Protect your hands.
Use only pans with flat bases without rough edges to
avoid remaining scratches

Cooking zones
The cooking zones are clearly mar-
ked on the ceramic surface. Only
the cooking zone which is switched
on will be heated up. The remaining
surface will not get hot.
Double circuit cooking zone
If the second circle of the two-circuit cooking zones
(No.2 and 3) is needed, the control knob concerned has
to be turned over position "10" to the final stop from
where it automatically springs back to position "10".
The temperature can now be controlled by turning back
the knob in the opposite direction to the wanted position.
Setting it back to "0" turns off the cooking zone.
Halogene cooking zone
The halogene cooking zone is heated up very rapidly
compared to the normal one-circuit cooking zone. It can
be compared with a gas cooking zone, without having
its inconveniences. When switched on the halogene
lamps immediately effect their full heating power.
Use the halogene cooking zone to heat up food quickly.
Warming zone
The warming zone will be turned on and off by the touch
control unit located on the ceramic surface in front of the
warming zone. By touching the corresponding field, "1"
resp. "0", it will be switched on resp. turned off.

7
Residual heat indicator
Each cooking zone is related to one indicator. The
warning lamp lights up when the surface of the
corresponding cooking zone reaches a temperature
which could cause burning.
This lamp remains lit after the heated-up area has been
switched off as long as the residual heat of the
corresponding cooking surface can cause burnings.
The light will only extinguish when there is no more
danger (temperature below 50°C).
The remaining heat should be used to get food ready-
cooked or keep food warm.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
COOKING EQUIPMENT
Specially tested cooking and frying pans for ceramic
hobs exist. Pay attention to the according sign.
Cooking pans with aluminium or copper bottoms
are unsuitable for use. These materials can
cause stains that can not be removed anymore.
The following advice should be considered to achieve
an optimal energy consumption as well as to avoid that
overboiling food can be burnt onto the cooking zones.
Bottom of pans:
Cooking and frying pans should have a flat and solid
base. A base with rough edges can scratch and leave
abrasion marks on the ceramic surface! Ask for electric
cooking pans.
Size of pans:
Pan or pot diameters should be a little bit larger than the
diameter of the cooking zone.
Lid of pans:
A lid prevents heat to escape.

The maintenance remains the same
for glass and ceramic hobs. Never
use aggressive detergents or scou-
ring powder and sponges with
abrasive surfaces.
Cleaning after each use
 Slight, not burnt soiling has to be wiped off with
a damp cloth without using detergents. The use of
detergents may lead to discolouring. These heavy
stains can not be wiped off easily by the first attempt
and sometimes not even with a special detergent.
 Burnt soiling has to be removed with a scraper.
Afterwards wipe off the ceramic hob with a damp cloth.
Stain removal
 Light metallic stains (aluminium remains) can
be removed from the cooled down cooking zone with a
special detergent. Calcareous deposits (caused by
overboiling water) can be removed with vinegar or a
special detergent.
 Removal of sugar, sugar-containing food,
plastic objects or kitchen foil
The cooking zone involved must not be turned off! The
remains have to be scraped off the hot cooking zone
immediately with a scraper. The cooking zone can be
switched off after the removal of the soiling. It may be
cleaned with a special detergent after it has cooled
down.
The mentioned detergents are available in super-
markets, electrical shops, drug stores, grocery stores
and kitchen studios.
Scrapers are available in craft shops and department
stores as well as in decoration stores.
Do not apply detergents on hot cooking zones. Best
is to the detergent dry on the surface and to wipe it off
with a damp cloth. If there are remains of cleaning
agents wipe them off before you turn on the heat again.
Remains could corrode.
ELECTROLUX declines any liability should the
appliance be used improperly and the safety
measures not be observed.

order to protect the appliance from damage only ovens
or control boxes which are approved by the manufacturer
must be connected to the ceramic hob.
The installation of electrical appliances must be
undertaken by qualified electricians only.
Improper repairs can cause serious harm and
danger for users. The protection against
accidental contact must be ensured by proper
installation.
The distance between the underside of the hob and the
furniture beneath must be at least 60 mm (fig.4).
