Electrolux 21602 G Operation

The symbols on the knobs mean that :

 there is no gas supply

there is maximum gas supply

there is minimum gas supply

For easier lighting, proceed before putting a pan on the pan support.

To light a burner, turn the relevant knob anticlockwise to maximum position ( ),

then push it down to ignite the burner. Upon ignition, adjust the flame as required.

If the burner does not ignite, turn the control knob to zero, and try again.

When switching on the mains, after installation or a power cut, it is quite normal for the

spark generator to be activated automatically.

In the absence of electricity, ignition can occur without the electrical device; in this

case, approach the burner with a flame, push the relevant knob down and turn it anti-

clockwise until it reaches the “maximum” position.

To ensure maximum burner efficiency, you should only use pots and pans with a flat

bottom fitting the size of the burner used (see table).

Burner minimum maximum

diameter diameter

Large (rapid) 160 mm 240 mm

Medium (semi-rapid) 120 mm 220 mm

Small (Auxiliary) 80 mm 160 mm

Operation

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid

simmering.

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the flame will

spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.

Take care when frying food in hot oil or fat, as the overheated splashes could easily

ignite

If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local AEG-Electrolux

Service Force Centre.

Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective materials,

which were put on in the factory.
