Before the First Use of the appliance

Before using the appliance, remove all packaging, both inside and outside the appliance, including the advertising labels and any protective film.

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

Before first use, the oven should be heated without food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is quite normal.

The oven will work only if the time of day has been set.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Before the First Use of the appliance - 1

  1. Set the time of day with the electronic programmer (see chapter "Electronic Programmer").
  2. Switch the oven function control knob to conventional cooking
  3. Set the thermostat control knob to MAX.
  4. Open a window for ventilation.
  5. Allow the oven to run empty for approximately 45 minutes.

This procedure should be repeated with the fan oven function and full grill function for approximately 5-10 minutes.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Before the First Use of the appliance - 2

Once this operation is carried out, let the oven cool down, then clean the oven cavity with a soft cloth soaked in warm water to which a little mild washing-up liquid has been added.

Using the Oven

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Using the Oven - 1

Always cook with the oven door closed.

Stand clear when opening the drop down oven door. Do not allow it to fall open - support the door using the door handle, until it is fully open.

The oven is supplied with an exclusive system which produces a natural circulation of air and the constant recycling of steam. This system makes it possible to cook in a steamy environment and keep the dishes soft inside and crusty outside. Moreover, the cooking time and energy consumption are reduced to a minimum. During cooking steam may be produced which can be released when opening the oven door. This is absolutely normal.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Using the Oven - 2

However, always stand back from the oven when opening the oven door during cooking or at the end of it to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Using the Oven - 3

The heating elements do not work when the oven door is not completely closed.

The oven has four shelf levels, and is supplied with two shelves.

The shelf positions are counted from the bottom of the oven as shown in the diagram.

It is important that these shelves are correctly positioned as shown in the diagram.

- Warning! - Do not place objects on the bottom of the oven and do not cover it with aluminium foil while cooking, as you can damage the enamelled surfaces and the food you are cooking. Always place pans, heat-resisting pans and aluminium foils on the oven shelves.

- Warning! - Be careful when you insert and extract the grid and the dripping pan from the oven in order not to damage the enamelled surfaces of the oven cavity.

i Hints and Tips for using the Hob

Start your cooking with a big flame by turning the knob to the symbol ⬆. Then adjust the flame as necessary.

The outside of the flame is much hotter than its inside (nucleus). Accordingly, the top of the flame should lick the bottom of the pan. Excessive flames mean a waste of gas.

In contrast with electric grids, gas burners do not require flat-bottomed pans: the flames lick the bottom and spread the heat all over the surface.

No special pans are required for gas burners. However, thinwalled pans transmit the heat to the food more quickly than thick-walled ones.

Since heat doesn't spread evenly on the pan's bottom, the food may only be partially heated. Consequently it is advisable to stir the food many times.

A thick pan bottom prevents partial overheating as it allows sufficient thermic compensation.

Avoid very small pans. Wide and shallow pans are more suitable than narrow and deep ones as they allow a faster heating. Cooking is not quickened by placing narrow pans on wide burners. The result is just a waste of gas. For a proper usage, place small pans on small burners and large pans on large burners.

Remember to cover pans to reduce gas consumption.

Pottery

Remember that a wide-bottomed pan allows a faster cooking than a narrow one.

Always use pots which properly fit what you have to cook. Particularly make sure that the pans are not too small for liquids, since these could easily overflow.

Moreover, the pans should not be too large for a faster cooking. In fact, grease and juices may spread on the bottom and burn easily.

It is better to use non-openable moulds for baking cakes. In fact, an openable mould lets juices and sugar leak through, falling on the bottom of the oven and consequently burning on the bottom of the baking tray, making cleaning difficult.

Avoid putting plastic-handled pans in the oven as they are not heat-proof.

You should use pans with the right diameter to fit the burner, in order to make the most out of it, thus reducing gas consumption.

It is also advisable to cover any boiling casserole and, as soon as the liquid starts boiling, lower the flame enough to keep the boiling point.

i Hints and Tips for using the Oven

Condensation and Steam

When food is heated, it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle does. When steam comes in contact of the oven door glass, it will condense and produce water droplets.

To reduce condensation, ensure the oven is well heated before placing food in the oven cavity. A short oven preheating (about 10 minutes) will then be necessary before any cooking.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.

Cookware

  • Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand temperatures of 250^ .
  • Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed directly against the grid covering the fan at the back.

Storage Drawer

The storage drawer is located underneath the oven cavity.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Storage Drawer - 1

During cooking the storage drawer may become hot if the oven is on high for a long period of time, therefore flammable materials such as oven gloves, tea towels, plastic aprons etc. should not be stored in the drawer.

Oven accessories such as baking sheets, will also become hot, therefore care should be taken when removing these items from the drawer whilst the oven is in use or still hot.of the oven, or placed on the oven base.

- Do not use baking trays larger than 30cm× 35cm (12 in x 14 in) as they will restrict the circulation of heat and may affect performance.

The effects of dishes on cooking results

Dishes and tins vary in their thickness, conductivity, colour, etc. which affects the way they transmit heat to the food inside them.

A Aluminium, earthenware, oven glassware and bright shiny utensils reduce cooking and base browning.
B Enamelled cast iron, anodized aluminium, aluminium with non-stick interior and coloured exterior and dark, heavy utensils increase cooking and base browning.

Hints and Tips on Cooking Fish and Meat

You can place meat in oven proof dishes, or directly on the oven shelf. In this case, remember to place the drip tray in the first position from the bottom with some water in it. The dripping pan will avoid the falling of melted fat on the oven base.

White meat, poultry and fish in general, need to be cooked at a medium temperature (between 150 and 175°C). If you need to cook red meat (slightly browned on the outside and more gently cooked in the inside), a higher temperature (between 200 and 230°C) for a short time is recommended.

Hints and Tips on baking

Cakes usually need to be cooked at a medium temperature (between 150 and 200°C).

A short oven pre-heating (about 10 minutes) is recommended when cooking cakes or baking. Once the cooking has been started, keep the oven door closed during all the cooking time, and check the cooking results through the oven door glass.

Hints and Tips on grilling

If you need to grill meat or fish, place them directly on the shelf after spreading a little oil on them.

In the grill function, heat comes only from the top element. Therefore, you need to adjust the cooking level depending on meat or fish's thickness.

Always remember to place the dripping pan in the lower position with some water in it.

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.

Using the Conventional Oven

When using this setting, heat comes from both the top and bottom elements. This allows you to cook on a single level and is particularly suitable for dishes which require extra base browning such as pizzas, quiches and flans.

Gratins, lasagnes and hotpots which require extra top browning also cook well in the conventional oven. This form of cooking gives you the opportunity to cook without the fan in operation.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Using the Conventional Oven - 1

How to Use the Conventional Oven

  1. Turn the oven function control knob to the required cooking function (☐)
  2. Adjust the temperature usign the thermostat control knob.

During cooking, the cooling fan will operate.

Top oven element only

This function is suitable for finishing cooked dishes, e.g. lasagne, shepherds pie, cauliflower cheese etc.

i Hints and Tips

The middle shelf position allows for the best heat distribution. To increase base browning simply lower the shelf position. To increase top browning, raise the shelf position.

The material and finish of the baking trays and dishes used will affect base browning. Enamelware, dark, heavy or non-stick utensils increase base browning, while oven glassware, shiny aluminium or polished steel trays reflect the heat away and give less base browning.

Always place dishes centrally on the shelf to ensure even browning.

Stand dishes on suitably sized baking trays to prevent spillage onto the base of the oven and make cleaning easier.

Do not place dishes, tins or baking trays directly on the oven base as it becomes very hot and damage will occur.

For faster preheating use the fan oven function to preheat the oven until the oven indicator goes out, then switch the selector to the conventional oven setting.

Single level cooking gives best results. If you require more than one level cooking use the fan oven function.

Using the Fan Oven

The air inside the oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan circulates hot air to maintain an even temperature inside the oven.

The advantages of cooking with this function are:

●Faster Preheating

As the fan oven quickly reaches temperature, it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven although you may find that you need to allow an extra 5-7 minutes on cooking times. For recipes which require higher temperatures, best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first, e.g. bread, pastries, scones, souffles, etc.

● Lower Temperatures

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional cooking.

Follow the temperatures recommended in the chart. Remember to reduce temperatures by about 20-25°C for your own recipes which use conventional cooking.

• Even Heating for Baking

The fan oven has uniform heating on all runner positions. This means that batches of the same food can be cooked in the oven at the same time. However, the top shelf may brown slightly quicker than the lower one.

This is quite usual. There is no mixing of flavours between dishes.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - How to Use the Full Grill - 2

Hints and Tips

  • Most foods should be placed on the grid in the grill pan to allow maximum circulation of air to lift the food out of the fats and juices. Food such as fish, liver and kidneys may be placed directly on the grill pan, if preferred.
  • Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep them moist during cooking.
  • Accompaniments such as tomatoes and mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid when grilling meats
  • When toasting bread, we suggest that the top runner position is used.
  • The food should be turned over during cooking, as required.

During cooking, the grill cycles on and off to keep the same temperature level and prevent overheating.

Defrosting

The oven fan operates without heat and circulates the air, at room temperature, inside the oven. This increases the speed of defrosting. However, please note that the temperature of the kitchen will influence the speed of defrosting.

This function is particularly suitable for delicate food which could be damaged by heat, e.g. cream filled gateaux, iced cakes, pastries, bread and other yeast products.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Defrosting - 1

How to Use Defrosting

Turn the oven function control knob to the required cooking function (☐).

It is not possible to adjust the temperature.

When defrosting food, the temperature inside the oven is about 30^ C.

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - How to Use Defrosting - 1

Hints and Tips

• Cover food with a lid, aluminium foil or plastic film to prevent drying out during defrosting.
• ALWAYS COOK THOROUGHLY IMMEDIATELY AFTERTHAWING.
- Frozen food should be placed in a single layer when ever possible and turned over half way through the defrosting process.
- Only joints of meat and poultry up to 2 kg. (4 lb.) are suitable for defrosting in this way.

Refer to the following table for approximate defrosting times.

Defrosting Chart

Maintenance and Cleaning

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Maintenance and Cleaning - 1

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the cooker from the electricity supply.

This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine.

The Hob Top

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.

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 cast iron pan supports. Take care when removing them. They are fairly heavy and could damage the hob or your kitchen furniture if you let them fall down. Wash the pan supports using hot soapy water.

If necessary, a paste cleaner or a soap impregnated steel wood pad can be used with caution.

The Burners

The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning. Wash the burner caps 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.

Ignition electrode

The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic and metal electrode (see diagram page 6 - letter C). Keep these components very clean, to avoid lighting difficulties, and check that the burner crown holes are not obstructed.

WARNING: Servicing shall only be carried out by authorised personnel.

Substitution of the nozzles

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Substitution of the nozzles - 1

- Remove the grills;

  • Remove the caps and baffles from the burners;
  • With a tubular spanner no. 7 unscrew and remove the nozzles substituting them with those corresponding to the type of gas used (see table on page 26);
  • Remount the parts carrying out the operations described in reverse. Upon completion remove existing gas type label and stick the relevant gas type label near the gas supply pipe.

If the pressure of gas used is different (or variable) from that foreseen an appropriate pressure regulator should be installed on the entry tube. In case pressure regulators for U-LPG are used these should conform to the regulations in force.

Regulation of the minimum

ELECTROLUX EKM6701X - Regulation of the minimum - 1

To regulate the minimum:

  • bring the tap to the minimum flame position.
  • extract the knob.
  • in case of conversion from natural gas to U-LPG, tightly screw the by-pass screw (see picture);
  • when converting from U-LPG to natural gas unscrew about 12 turn by-pass screw, until a regular small flame is reached.

Finally check that by quickly turning the tap from the maximum position to the minimum position the burner is not extinguished; remount the parts carrying out the operations described in reverse.

Electrical Connections

The appliance is predisposed to function with a 240V monophase voltage tension. Connection must be carried out in conformity with the regulations and dispositions of the laws in force.

Before connecting ensure that:

  • The limiter valve and the electrical mains can support the voltage of the appliance (see registration plate).
  • The power supply is correctly earthed according to the regulations in force.
  • The plug or omnipolar interrupter used can be easily reached once the appliance has been installed.

The appliance is supplied with a supply cord incorporating a plug. Connect the plug to an appropriate security socket.

If a direct connection to the mains is required, an omnipolar interrupter with a minimum opening of 3mm between contacts, dimensioned to the voltage and corresponding to the regulations in force, should be interposed between the appliance and the supply. The yellow/green earth cable must not be interrupted by the interrupter. The brown coloured phase cable (situated at terminal "L" of the terminal box) must always be connected to the network phase. The voltage cable must always be positioned in such a manner that it at no point reaches a temperature of 50°C above room temperature. An example of the best routing is shown in the picture.

In case of substitution of the voltage cable use cable type H05 RRF having a section suited to the charge, it is furthermore necessary that the yellow/green earth wire be approximately 2cm longer than the phase and neutral wires (see picture).

After connection try out the heating elements allowing them to function for approximately 3 minutes.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility in case the prevention of accidents regulations are not respected.
