Introduction

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

RATING PLATE

This is situated on the lower front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the top cavity door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable).

The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.

Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.

GENERAL NOTES ON USING YOUR APPLIANCE

We suggest that you run the oven elements for 10 - 15 minutes at 220°C to burn off any residue from their surfaces.

The procedure should be repeated with the grill for approximately 5 - 10 minutes.

During this period an odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to open a window for ventilation.

ABOUT CONDENSATION AND STEAM

When food is heated it produces steam similar to a boiling kettle. The ovens are vented to allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the appliance 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 appliance, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.

To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces including the vent at the rear of the hob.

For your safety wallcoverings at the rear of the appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.

THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS

The cooling fan operates immediately when the grill or top oven is switched on. It may run on after the controls are switched off until the appliance has cooled. If an automatic programme has been set the cooling fan does not switch on until the cooktime begins.

The cooling fan may operate after a time when the fan oven is in use. This will depend on the temperature setting and the length of time the oven has been in use.

CONTROL PANEL INDICATOR NEONS

These lights indicate whether the ovens are switched on.

The neons also indicate when the set temperature has been reached. They will turn on and off during use to show that the temperature is being maintained.

If the neons do not operate as the instructions indicate the controls have been incorrectly set. Return all controls to zero and re-set following the instructions for the required setting.

When the oven has been set for automatic cooking the neon will remain unlit until the cooktime begins.

COOKWARE

Baking trays, oven dishes etc., should not be placed directly against the grid covering the fan at the back of the oven.

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

SIM 533 specifications

The Electrolux SIM 533 is an innovative induction cooktop that revolutionizes the cooking experience with its blend of advanced technology and user-friendly design. This state-of-the-art appliance is engineered to meet the needs of modern kitchens, making it an ideal choice for both amateur cooks and culinary experts alike.

One of the standout features of the Electrolux SIM 533 is its induction cooking technology. Unlike traditional gas or electric stoves, induction cooking offers rapid heating and precise temperature control. The electromagnetic coils beneath the ceramic glass surface generate heat directly in the cookware, resulting in faster cooking times while using less energy. This efficiency not only saves on utility bills but also minimizes heat loss and provides a safer cooking environment.

The SIM 533 comes equipped with multiple cooking zones, allowing users to prepare multiple dishes simultaneously. Each zone is equipped with sensors that detect the size of the cookware, activating only the necessary elements to optimize energy use. Additionally, the cooktop features a smart bridging function that enables two zones to combine into one, accommodating larger pots and pans for versatile cooking options.

Another notable characteristic of this model is its intuitive touch control panel. The user interface is designed for ease of use, featuring clear displays and responsive touchkeys that make adjusting settings a breeze. Users can quickly adjust the temperature, set timers, and switch between cooking modes with just a few taps.

Safety is also a top priority in the design of the Electrolux SIM 533. The appliance includes a child lock feature to prevent accidental activation, as well as an automatic shut-off function that kicks in when the cooktop detects an empty or incorrectly placed pot. This thoughtful approach reduces the risk of fire hazards and enhances peace of mind during the cooking process.

Moreover, cleaning up after cooking is effortless due to the smooth ceramic glass surface, which resists stains and can be wiped down easily. The sleek design complements any kitchen aesthetic, adding a touch of elegance to cooking spaces.

In conclusion, the Electrolux SIM 533 induction cooktop stands out for its blend of modern technology, safety features, and user-friendly design. Whether you’re simmering sauces or searing meats, this appliance provides the precision and efficiency that today’s cooks demand. It's not just a cooktop; it's an essential kitchen companion that elevates the culinary experience.
