Cleaning the hotplates
Remove spillages as soon as possible, to prevent them
from burning onto the hotplate. Soilage impairs the
transfer of heat to the pan.
Cleaning and anti-corrosion treatment
1
Clean the hotplates thoroughly with soapimpreg-
nated steel-wool. Wash off all traces of soap, and
dry using paper towels.
2
When the hotplates are cold and dry, apply an even
layer of the anti-corrosion product to each. This
product is available from Electrolux dealers.
3
The product now needs to be heated on the hot-
plates. Heat one hotplate at a time on full power for
no more than five minutes. Some smoke and fumes
are to be expected as the remaining solvent evapo-
rates.
4
Use white spirit to remove any traces of the product
on your hands or (after the cooker has cooled) on
the cooker enamel.
Functions for safety
The cooker function lock
There is a lock built in to the oven’s thermostat control
with two safety positions. You can choose whether to use
the lock with single or double safety or not at all.
NOTE
!
The main power supply to the cooker is still connected.
LOCK ONE
: The power to the hotplates and oven is
disconnected when the thermostat control is turned to
OFF
.
LOCK TWO
:
When the lock button is also activated,
two hands are needed to turn the cooker on. This
makes it particularly difficult for children to “use” the
cooker.
Lock One

OFF
.
W
HEN YOU WANT TO USE THE COOKER

control back to the 12 o’clock position).

The cooker can be used as normal. Make sure no
functions other than the one/those you want to
use are turned on. (Someone may have turned a
control while the lock was activated).
