HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Use the appliance only with original
Wok with round bottom.
Warning! Safe operation of the
appliance in accordance with EN60335
can only be guaranteed with the wok
pan supplied with it. Cookware with a
flat bottom must not be used.
COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION WOK
Important! In induction cooking a powerful
electromagnetic field generates an almost
instant heat inside the cookware.
Cookware material
•correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,
stainless steel, a multi-layer bottom
(marked as correct by a manufacturer).
•not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct if …
• ... some water boils very quickly on a
zone set to the highest heat setting..
• ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
THE WOK USE
• Put the wok pan into the wok niche care-
fully. If used carelessly, the handle can hit
the glass-ceramic surface and damage it.
• Do not shake the wok pan while it is in
the wok niche. The handle can scratch or
cause other damage to the glass-ceram-
ic surface.
THE NOISES DURING OPERATION
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of differ-
ent materials (Sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use the cooking zone
with high power levels and the cookware
is made of different materials (Sandwich
construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to appliance malfunction.
ENERGY SAVING
• If possible, always put the lids on the
cookware.
•Putcookwareona cooking zone be-
fore you start it.
AUTOMATIC USE OF RESIDUAL HEAT
To save the energy, the heater of the
cooking zone switches itself off earlier
than count down timer signal. The
heating time reduction depends on
cooking time.
THE TIPS FOR COOKING WITH THE
WOK
The induction wok is best for preparing "a
la minute" dishes, in particular Chinese spe-
cialities. The food is continuously turned
during the short frying time. The induction
heating system means that in the wok you
can cook very quickly and at high heat. As
a result meat and fish stay succulent and
vegetables keep their colour, taste and vita-
mins.
Warning! Take care! Risks of burns
from overheated fats and oils.
The induction wok has - specially at the
heat setting 9 and above - a high pow-
er with very fast reaction time. Fat and
oil become too hot very quickly. When
it starts to smoke, it is too hot.
When cooking with fat or oil do not
leave the appliance unattended.
With small quantity of food / oil use the
Power function only for a short time. If
not, there is the risk of damage to the
wok pan.
The frying temperature can be estima-
ted by testing with a wooden spoon.
Hold the handle of a wooden spoon in
the hot fat:
– If small bubbles rise to the surface,
the frying temperature has been
reached.
– If there are no bubbles, the frying
temperature has not yet been
reached.
COOKING METHODS FOR THE WOK
Stir-frying
• Swirl the wok with oil.
• Cut the ingredients into small pieces. Add
sauces and seasonings and quickly fry
10 electrolux

over a high heat while stirring continuous-
ly.
• The cooking time is very short. Make
sure that the ingredients are prepared
before you start cooking.
• Start with the ingredients with the longest
cooking time.
• Stir-frying is a very healthy cooking meth-
od.
• Vegetables keep their taste and colour,
and stay nice and crunchy.
• Small pieces of meat stay tender.
Deep-frying
• The wok provides a very small drop in
temperature and low oil consumption.
• Because of the constant temperature the
fried food does not absorb much fat.
• Meat, fish, potatoes, vegetables, etc.
keep an even colour and crust, and thus
also the usual taste.
• Only use fats that are specially intended
for deep-frying.
Poaching / Whipping
• The curved shape of the wok is suitable
for whipping up custards, sabayons, but-
ter sauces, fatless sponge or parfait mix-
tures without a bain marie at 65° C to
80° C.
Simmering
• Boiling: to cook food (for example spa-
ghetti) at the boiling point.
• Simmering: to cook food (for example
dumplings) just under the boiling point.
Stewing
• Cook the food in its own juice, or add of
a little fat and other liquid.
• Use this method to cook food with a high
water content (such as vegetables, fish
and fruit) with a lid on over moderate
heat, to keep the flavour.
Steaming
• This is a gentle cooking method, which
keeps a high level of the food’s nutrient
content and colour.
•Using fats and oils
When the temperature is too high, the fat
begins to smoke (so-called “smoking
point”)
Fats / Oils Max. tem-
perature
(°C)

The Power function is suitable for heating
large quantities of water.
Information on acrylamides
Important! According to the newest
scientific knowledge, if you brown food
(specially the one which contains starch),
acrylamides can pose a health risk. Thus,
we recommend that you cook at the lowest
temperatures and do not brown food too
much.
CARE AND CLEANING
Clean the appliance after each use.
Always use cookware with clean bottom.
Warning! Sharp objects and abrasive
cleaning agents will damage the
appliance.
For your safety, do not clean the appli-
ance with steam blasters or high-pres-
sure cleaners.
Scratches or dark stains on the glass
ceramic have no effect on how the ap-
pliance operates.
To remove the dirt:
1. – Remove immediately:melted plas-
tic, plastic foil, and food with sugar. If
not, the dirt can cause damage to
the appliance. Use a special scraper
for the glass .
–Remove after the appliance is
sufficiently cool:limescale rings ,
water rings, fat stains, shiny metallic
discolorations. Use a special cleaning
agent for glass ceramic or stainless
steel.
electrolux 11

2. Clean the appliance with a moist cloth
and some detergent.
3. At the end rub the appliance dry
with a clean cloth.
CLEANING THE WOK PAN (WOK P6)
• Clean the wok pan thoroughly inside and
out with washing up liquid after every
use.
• Soften heavy deposits with hot water. If
necessary, clean with a commercially
available chromium steel cleaner and a
sponge.
• Blue discolourations, limescale stains or
protein stains are best removed with vin-
egar or lime juice.
