USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP
Using your gas hotplates
NOTE: Gas controls turn anticlockwise from ‘Off’ and have limited
movement.
Lighting
the burners
Electronic ignition
These hobs are fitted with mains powered electronic ignition. When the
appliance has been connected and the power is on, depressing any knob will
release sparks to all burners. To light a burner, depress the corresponding
knob and while continuing to depress knob turn anti-clockwise to ‘HI’
position. The knob may be released once the flame is established, and turned
further anti-clockwise to r,educe the flame height as desired.
The burners are equipped with a flame failure device providing security in
case of an accidentally extinguished flame. If such a case occurs, the device
will block the burners gas lines and will avoid any accumulation of unburned
gas. Wait 90 seconds before re-igniting an extinguished gas burner
WARNING
- Keep hands clear of burners when lighting.
- If burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn knob to ‘Off’ position, allow gas to disperse, then try lighting again.
- Burners MUST be operated between ‘HIGH’ and ‘LOW’ settings only.
** ENVIRONMENTAL**
To conserve gas, place the pan centrally over the burner and adjust the flame
so that it does not go past the edge of the cookware.
Your hob has burners of different diameters. The most economic way of using
gas is to choose the correct size gas burners for your cooking pan size and to
bring the flame to minimum position once the boiling point is reached. It is
recommended to always cover your cooking pan. In order to obtain maximum
performance from the main burners, use pots with the following flat bottom
diameters. Using smaller pots than the minimum dimensions stated below will
cause energy loss.
Intense heat wok Burner: 22-26cm
Medium heat (Semi-rapid) Burner: 14-22cm
Low heat (auxiliary) Burner: 12-18cm
Make sure that the tips of the flames do not spread out of the outer
circumference of the pan, as this may also harm the plastic accessories around
the pan (handles etc.).
NOTE: In the absence of electrical power, carry out the ignition directly to the burner with a hand held ignition source.

upper heating elements will start operating.
The static cooking function emits heat, ensuring even cooking of the lower and
upper food. This is ideal for making pastries, cakes, baked pasta, lasagne and
pizza. Prehating the oven for 10 minutes is recommended and it is best to cook
on only one shelf at a time in this function.
Defrost Function
The oven’s warning lights will be turned on, the fan starts operating.
To use the defrost function, take your frozen food and place it in the oven on
a shelf placed in the third slot from the bottom. It is recommended that you
can place an oven tray under the defrosting food, to catch the water
accumulated due to melting ice. This function will not cook or bake your food,
it will only help to defrost it
Grill Function
The oven’s thermostat and warning lights will be turned on, the grill heating
element will start operating.
The function is used for grilling and toasting foods, use the upper shelves of
oven. Lightly brush the wire grid with oil to stop foods sticking and place
foods in the center of the grid. Always place a tray beneath to catch any
drips of oil or fat. It is recommended to pre-heat the oven about 10 minutes.
WARNING

- Turn the function and temperature controls to the off position.
- Press any button to stop the timer beeping.
Cooling/Venting fan
Your appliance is fitted with a cooling fan.
This prevents your appliance from overheating and reduces the condensation
inside the oven. It will operate whenever you are using your oven or grill and
will expel warm air from the appliance. In some appliances the cooling fan may
continue to operate after the appliance is turned off. It will switch off by
itself once the oven is cool
Condensation
Excess condensation may fog the oven door. This may happen when you are
cooking large quantities of food from a cold start. You can minimize
condensation by:
- Keeping the amount of water used whilst cooking to a minimum.
- Make sure that the oven door is firmly closed.
- Baking custard in a baking dish that is slightly smaller than the water container.
- Cooking casseroles with the lid on.
NOTE: If you are using water in cooking, this will turn to steam and may condense outside your appliance. This is not a problem or fault with your oven.
COOKING TEST
Get to know your new oven with this ‘Simple Test Cake’
Although we strive for a perfect performing oven, it’s possible that there
will be some variation in color when baking. Therefore, we suggest this
simple, easy, and delicious make Simple Test Cake, it can help you understand
your new oven. All ovens do sometimes have hot or cold spots, therefore it is
important to judge with your eye as you may require to rotate during baking.
‘Simple Test Cake’
125g butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup caster sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla essence
4 large eggs
2 cups self-raising flour pinch of salt
4 tablespoons (80ml) full-cream milk
NOTE: If desired substitute butter for either margarine or olive oil
spread. The recipe is based on the Australian standard metric 250ml cup and
20ml tablespoon sets.
Method:
- Butter base and sides of two 20cm straight-sided round or square cake pans. Then line the base with greaseproof or baking paper.
- Preheat oven to moderate ‘180°C’ (170°C fan-forced) and ensure oven shelf is in the center position of the oven.
- Cream softened butter and sugar until light in color.
- Add vanilla essence.
- Then eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Sift flour and salt into the mixture and beat until well combined.
- Add milk and beat or stir to combine.
- Spoon mixture equally between prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven, middle shelf for about 25 to 35 minutes or until when tested with a fine cake skewer it comes out clean, or the edges of the cakes have come away slightly from the sides of the cake pans.
- Remove from oven to wire cake rack and rest for 5 minutes before removing from cake pans. Cool completely.
To Serve: sandwich together with your favorite jam or conserve, and dust top with pure icing sugar.
- For best baking results preheat the oven for 30 minutes.
- Select the correct shelf location for food being cooked.
- Make sure dishes will fit into the oven before you switch them on.
- Keep edges of baking dishes at least 40mm from the side of the oven. This allows free circulation of heat and ensures even cooking.
- Do not open the oven door more than necessary.
- Do not place foods with a lot of liquid into the oven with other foods. This will cause food to steam and not brown.
- After the oven is turned off it retains the heat for some time. Use this heat to finish custards or to dry bread.
- Do not use a lot of cooking oil when roasting. This will prevent splattering oil on the sides of the oven and the oven door. Polyunsaturated fats can leave residue which is very difficult to remove.
- When cooking things that require a high heat from below (e.g. tarts), place the cooking dish on a scone tray in the desired shelf position.
- For sponges and cakes use aluminum, bright finished, or non-stick utensils.
- Remove unnecessary trays or dishes when roasting or baking.
Oven shelf location
Your oven has five positions for shelves. These are numbers from 1 (the lowest
shelf position to 5 (the highest shelf position) See diagram.
To give
maximum space above and below the shelves, load them in this way:
- When cooking with 1 shelf, use position 3 or 4.
- When cooking with 2 shelves, use positions 1 and 4.
Use the oven efficiently, by cooking many trays of food at the same time. For example:
- Cook 2 trays of scones, small cakes, or sausage rolls.

Grilling Guide
WARNING
Always clean the grill/oven dish after every use.
The excessive fat build-up may cause a fire.
Grilling is conducted with the oven door closed
As a method of cooking, grilling can be used to:
- Enhance the flavors of vegetables, fish, poultry, and meat.
- Seal the surface of the food and retain the natural juices.
This table shows how to grill different types of meat:
Beef| Tenderloin, rump, sirloin. Brush with oil or melted butter, especially
if the meat is very lean.
---|---
Lamb| Loin chops, short loin chops, chump chops, and forequarter chops. Remove
skin or cut at intervals to stop curling.
Brush with oil or melted butter.
Sausages| Prick sausages to stop the skin from bursting.
Poultry| Divide into serving pieces. Brush with oil.
Fish| Brush with oil or melted butter and lemon juice.
Bacon| Remove rind. Grill flat.
Guide to better grilling
Steak | 15 – 20 minutes |
---|---|
Chops | 20 – 30 minutes |
Fish | 8 – 10 minutes |
Bacon | 4 – 5 minutes |
No definite times can be given for grilling because this depends on your own
tastes and the size of the food. These times should only be used as a guide
and remember to turn the food over halfway through the cooking process.
For better grilling results, follow these easy instructions:
- Preheat the grill for at least 5 minutes.
- Choose only prime cuts of meat or fish. If the cut is less than 5mm thick it will dry out. If the cut is more than 40mm thick, the outside may burn whilst the inside remains raw.
- Do not place aluminum foil under the food as this prevents fats and oils from draining away, which could result in a fire.
- Baste the food during cooking with butter, olive oil, or marinade. Grilled food is better if marinated before cooking.
- Use tongs to turn food as a fork pierces the surface and will let juices escape.
Fan Grill
The “Fan Grill” assists the grilling process by circulating the heat evenly
around the food. The recommended temperature setting is 180°C for all fan
grilling functions.
- Place the grill dish on the bottom rack.
- Place meat/poultry on an oven shelf above the grill dish.
- Wipe off any oil or fat which spatters while the oven is still warm.

LPG CONVERSION
This appliance is supplied set up for Natural Gas usage. A conversion kit is
included with the product for Universal LPG usage. The conversion kit contains
a set of injectors and 1 LPG sticker.
Please follow the procedure below if a conversion to suit UNIVERSAL LPG is
required:
-
Remove the hotplate trivets, burner caps and burner crowns to access the hotplate injectors. Replace the factory fitted injectors with the appropriate injectors, as supplied. Refer to injector orifice table for injector sizes. The injector size is stamped on the side of the injector.
-
Unscrew the top hat nut from the regulator. The top hat nut and control pressure spring assembly will disengage as an assembly.
-
Unscrew the threaded pin from top hat.
-
Upturn threaded pin, so spring is free and screw pin back into the top hat until firm.
-
Refit the top hat nut assembly to the regulator ensuring that it is fully screwed down. The regulator is now set for connection to LPG.
-
Turn on the gas supply and at each new connection check for leaks using soapy water. Each hotplate valve should be turned on, one at a time, and the injector hole blanked off for several seconds.
-
The operation of the regulator can be confirmed by connecting a manometer to the pressure test point located on the side of the regulator body adjacent to the outlet.
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 of 2.60kPa by more than ±0.52kPa. -
If the regulator appears to not be performing satisfactorily then check the following points:
• 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 2.75 – 7.00kPa.
• Check that the insert has been fitted correctly.
• Check that the turret screw is fully screwed down.
• 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. -
One by one, turn the knobs to minimum and screw in the bypass screw (accessible when the knob is removed) until a small stable flame results. Turn the knob to maximum and then back to minimum to ensure that the correct minimum flame is maintained.
-
Attach the LPG sticker to the cooker, near the gas supply inlet. Cover the Natural Gas label that is factory fitted.
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
-
Check the manometer zero point is correct.
-
Connect the manometer to the cooker pressure test point. This is located on the regulator or LPG inlet fitting.
-
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. -
Check the operating pressure for the particular gas type.
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.
- 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.
- 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:
- Adjust the bypass screw mounted on the body of each hotplate control cock. This is accessible when the control knob and the control panel are removed.
- Check the ignition on all burners both separately and in combination.
- Check the operation of the electrical components, if applicable.
- 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 clock and 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.
