Hints and Tips

MANUFACTURER:

ELECTROLUX ZANUSSI S.p.A.

Viale Bologna, 298

47100 FORLÌ (Italy)

When the oven is first installed

Once the oven has been installed:

a) set the thermostat knob to MAX (250);
b) switch the oven function control knob to conventional cooking
c) allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes;
d) open a window for ventilation.

During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is absolutely normal, and is caused by residues of manufacturing.

Repeat this operation for the grill and fan cooking function.

Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool down, then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water.

Before cooking for the first time, carefully wash the oven accessories.

Safety thermostat

In order to avoid excessive overheating due to incorrect use of the appliance or else to a faulty component, the oven is equipped with a safety thermostat which cuts off the power supply if necessary. Operation is restored automatically when the oven temperature decreases to normal values. Therefore, if the thermostat cuts in because you have not been using the appliance correctly, the oven can be used again simply by waiting for the appliance to cool down. If, instead, the thermostat cuts in because of a faulty component, you should call the Service Department.

Hints and tips for using the oven

Always cook with the oven door closed.

Conventional cooking

Heat comes from the top and from the bottom, therefore it is preferable to use the central runners. If cooking requires more heat from the top or from the bottom use the top or the bottom runners or turn the control knob to the relevant positions (bottom heating and top heating).

Grilling

When grilling meat or fish, spread a little oil on them and always place them on the oven grid. The shelf level depends on the thickness of the food.

Always place the dripping pan at the lowest level, with some water in it, to avoid smoke and unpleasant smells.

Some hints

For baking cakes

Cakes require a moderate temperature (normally between 150 and 200°C). In addition, the oven must be heated up beforehand - for about 10 minutes.

The oven door should not be opened before at least 3/4 of the set cooking time is up.

Normal short pastry dough should be cooked in a mould or tin for 2/3 of total cooking time required and then garnished as desired before being cooked completely.

Clearly, the remaining cooking time depends on the type of garnish used (jam, fruit, etc.).

Care should be taken to ensure that any dough and cake mixes are of the right consistency since an unduly moist mix lengthens cooking time unnecessarily. The raw dough or mix should therefore be fairly difficult to detach from the spoon or beater.

For cooking meat and fish

Meat cooked in the oven should weigh at least 1 kg to prevent it from becoming too dry during cooking. Very tender red meat to be cooked rare, i.e. well cooked on the outside but extremely juicy inside, requires high-temperature cooking (200-250°C).

White meat, poultry and fish instead require low-temperature cooking (150-175°C).

The ingredients for the accompanying sauce or gravy should be put in the baking pan at the very beginning only when cooking times are short. Otherwise they should be added during the last half hour. A simple way of checking whether meat is done or not is to press it with a spoon; if the meat does not yield under this pressure it means that it is done to a turn. In the case of roast beef and fillet steaks, the inside of which should remain fairly pink in color, cooking times must be short. The meat can be cooked in a baking pan or else directly on the shelf - in this case a dripping pan must obviously be placed underneath the shelf to collect the juice. Once the meat is cooked, it is advisable to let it rest for at least 15 minutes before carving so that the juice does not seep out. To prevent the formation of too much smoke in the oven during roasting, it is a good idea to pour a little water into the

Fig. 4

dripping pan and—to prevent steam—to add a little bit more during cooking if the original amount dries up too much.

Before serving, the various courses can be kept hot in the oven which should be turned down to the minimum temperature.

Attention! - Do not place pans, dripping pans, biscuit pans or aluminium foil on the oven bottom. This could cause a heat build-up which would affect the baking results and damage the oven enamel.

Cooking times

Cooking times vary according to the type of food to be cooked, its consistency, and volume. We suggest that you take particular note of your first cooking experiments with the oven, since operating in the same conditions for the same dishes you will of course obtain similar results.

Only experience will enable you to make the appropriate changes to values given on charts.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Before any cleaning switch the oven off and let it cool down. This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine.

Important! Before carrying out maintenance and cleaning operations, make sure that your oven is disconnected from the mains power supply.

Cleaning must be carried out after the oven has cooled down. Wash the enamelled parts with lukewarm water and detergent. Do not use abrasive products, such as steel wool pads, acids etc. since these could damage the various surfaces. Rinse stainless steel parts with water after use, and dry them with a soft cloth or chamois leather.

In the case of persistent stains, you can use normal non-abrasive detergents or products specific for stainless steel readily available on the market. Another alternative is a drop of hot vinegar.

When cleaning the oven door with the glass top cover use just hot water, taking care to avoid using coarse cloths or abrasive products.

The hot acids of fruit (e.g. lemons, stewed prunes, etc.) leave difficult-to-remove stains on the enamelled surfaces; this inconvenient may remove enamel gloss, but, it does not impair oven operation.

Clean the oven thoroughly after use; in this way it will be possible to remove cooking residuals more easily, thus avoiding these from burning the next time the oven is used.

Replacing the oven light

Disconnect the appliance from its power supply point. Push in and unscrew the glass cap (Fig. 5). Unscrew the light bulb and replace it with a new heat-proof bulb (300°C) having the following features: - Operative tension: 230 V (50 Hz); - Power: 25 W; - Fitting: E 14. Reconnect the appliance.

Oven door cleaning

For a better cleansing of the oven door, you are suggested to remove it from the appliance with the following procedure: open the door completely; lift the small levers placed on the two hinges and turn the levers toward the inside (Fig. 6). Slowly close the oven door, until it touches the two levers, then push it towards the oven and remove it by pulling it towards the outside. Place the door on a horizontal level. After cleaning, assemble the door again by carrying out the procedure described above backwards. When the two small levers are placed again on the hinges, the door will have been accurately fit.

Instructions for the installer

The instructions given below are designed specifically for a qualified installer and should aid him or her to perform all installation, adjustment, and maintenance operations with absolute precision and in compliance with all current legislation and regulations. We strongly recommend that all operations for the installation of your cooker be carried out by Qualified Personnel in accordance with existing rules and regulations.

Electrical connection

Prior to making the electrical connection, make sure that:

— the protection fuse and the domestic wiring system are suitable to carry the total electric load of the oven (see rating plate);
— your domestic wiring system has an efficient earth connection in compliance with rules and laws in force;
— the wall socket or the omnipole switch used for the electrical connection can easily be reached after the oven is built in.

This appliance is delivered without an electric supply cable, therefore, you will have to fit to it a supply cable with standard plug, suitable for the total electric load shown on the rating plate. The plug is to be inserted into a suitable wall socket. If you require a direct connection to the electric network (mains), it will be necessary to fit between the appliance and the mains an omnipole switch, with a minimum gap between contacts of 3 mm, suitable for the required load and in compliance with rules in force. The green & yellow ground wire must not be interrupted by the switch. The supply cable must in all cases be laid out in such a way as to ensure that it does not reach at any given point a temperature 50^ C higher than the ambient temperature.

Suitable power supply cables are the following types, considering the respective necessary section of cable: H07 RN-F, H05 RN-F, H05 RR-F, H05 VV-F, H05 V2V2-F (T90), H05 BB-F.

Terminal block

The oven has an easily accessible terminal block, which is meant to work with an electric single-phase rate of 230 V (Fig. 7).

The Manufacturer disclaims any liability in case these accident-preventing rules are not observed.

Fig. 7

Building-in

To ensure correct operation of the built-in assembly, the kitchen cabinet and the recess for the built-in appliance must have suitable dimensions.

When the appliance is fitted-in, there must be no open spaces left and it must be closed on all sides by the kitchen furniture to prevent the possibility of inadvertently touching “live” (current carrying) parts of the oven. All parts ensuring such a protection, including any covering panel (for instance, if the appliance is installed at the end or at the beginning of a kitchen counter) must be fastened in such a way as to prevent removal of the same without the aid of some tool. This appliance belongs to the “Y” class relevant to protection against ambient over-heating. This means that the appliance can be placed with its back and with one side close to appliances or walls of higher height. The other side, instead, must be placed close to furniture or appliances, having the same height.
