Using the Oven

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 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.

Do not place cookware directly on the oven base.

Hints and Tips

Condensation and steam

When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the oven when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release.

If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven.

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

Cooling fan

The cooling fan operates during cooking. Air is expelled through vents between the oven door and the control panel, as shown in the diagram.

The cooling fan may run on after the oven is switched off to keep the controls cool. This is quite normal.

Cookware

Use any oven proof cookware which will withstand temperatures of 250°C.

Baking trays, oven dishes, etc. should not be placed on the oven base.

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

One of the standout features of the EPSOS is its advanced induction cooking technology. Induction cooking uses magnetic fields to directly heat pots and pans rather than the surface of the cooktop, resulting in faster cooking times, precise temperature control, and enhanced energy efficiency. This technology not only reduces cooking durations but also preserves the nutritional value of the food by enabling rapid heating and cooling.

In addition to induction heat, the EPSOS integrates smart technology that allows for seamless connectivity with mobile devices. Users can access recipes, set cooking schedules, or even monitor their meals remotely. This feature ensures that cooking is not only convenient but also allows for multitasking in today’s fast-paced lifestyle. The ability to control oven settings from a smartphone adds to the overall flexibility of meal preparation, making it easier for individuals with busy schedules to manage their cooking.

Moreover, the EPSOS is designed with sustainability in mind. It features Eco Mode, which optimizes energy consumption during use, thereby reducing the carbon footprint of home cooking. The sleek and stylish design, characterized by a user-friendly interface, enhances the aesthetic appeal of any kitchen while making operations intuitive. The streamlined buttons and touch controls provide access to various settings and functions effortlessly.

The appliance is also equipped with high-performance steam cooking capabilities. This feature stands out for its ability to preserve flavor, texture, and nutrients in food, making it an excellent choice for health-conscious consumers. The steam cooking functionality allows for diverse culinary applications, from steaming vegetables to baking delicate pastries.

Furthermore, the EPSOS is designed with durability in mind. Its premium materials and construction ensure a long life span, providing excellent value for the investment. Easy-to-clean surfaces and removable components contribute to the lower maintenance requirements, allowing users to spend more time enjoying their meals rather than cleaning up.

Overall, the Electrolux EPSOS represents the perfect blend of advanced technology, sustainability, and user-friendly design, setting a new standard for modern kitchen appliances. With its sophisticated features, it empowers users to explore new culinary horizons while minimizing their ecological impact.
