Electrolux EKT6045 manual Safety CUT-OUT, Recommended Saucepans, Hints and Tips

SAFETY CUT-OUT

If after switching on the cooking surface, a heat setting is not set for a cooking zone within approximately 10 seconds, the cooking surface automatically switches itself off.

If one or more sensor fields are covered for longer than approximately 10 seconds, e.g. by a pan placed upon it, a signal sounds and the cooking surface switches off automatically.

RECOMMENDED SAUCEPANS

Only saucepans with flat bases and close fitting lids are recommended. The saucepan base should be approximately the same size as the cooking area.

Ensure that new saucepans are well scrubbed to remove edges and take off any deposits left from manufacture.

Traditional round bottomed Woks must not be used even with a stand. Woks with flat-bottomed bases are available and do comply with the above recommendations.

NOTE:

Occasionally the heated areas may be seen to switch ON and OFF when higher heat settings are being used. This is due to a safety device which prevents the glass from overheating.

Some switching ON and OFF when cooking at high temperatures, e.g. deep fat frying is quite normal, causes no damage to the hob and little delay in cooking times.

Excessive switching may however be caused by the use of an unsuitable saucepan or a saucepan which is smaller than the heated area. If excessive switching occurs, discontinue use of the saucepan.

HINTS AND TIPS

•Lift, rather than slide saucepans on and off the hob. This will reduce the risk of scratches and metal marks from saucepans with aluminium bases. Metal marks can be easily cleaned off providing they are not allowed to burn on.

•Follow any guidelines provided by the saucepan manufacturer, particularly those relating to recommended heat settings.

•Avoid using thin, badly dented or distorted saucepans. Those with uneven bases should not be used.

•Never leave the hotplates ON when not covered with a saucepan.

•Ensure that the hob and saucepans are clean and dry before the start of cooking.

•Follow the cleaning instructions very closely to keep the hob looking like new.

•If spillage occurs with sugar solutions, e.g. jams and syrups, it must be wiped from the hob before it sets and becomes hard otherwise damage to the hob will occur.
