Function Description
The Electrolux cooker is a freestanding appliance designed for household cooking purposes, featuring both a hob and an oven.
Hob:
The hob consists of four cooking zones with varying power levels:
- Two 1200 W cooking zones (140 mm diameter).
- Two 1800 W cooking zones (180 mm diameter).
These zones are controlled by knobs and operate intermittently based on the selected heat level, regulated by a thermostat. A residual heat indicator is present to warn of hot surfaces.
Oven:
The oven offers multiple cooking functions:
- Conventional Cooking: For baking and roasting food on one shelf position.
- Grilling: For grilling flat food and toasting bread, with a maximum temperature of 210 °C.
- Bottom Heat: For baking cakes with a crispy bottom and preserving food.
- Fan Cooking: For roasting and baking food on more than one shelf position at the same temperature, without flavour transference.
- Defrost: For defrosting food (vegetables and fruit). The temperature knob must be in the off position for this function.
- Moist Baking: An energy-saving function that circulates air and recycles steam to keep food soft inside and crispy outside, reducing cooking time and energy consumption.
Clock Functions:
- Minute Minder: Allows setting a countdown timer, which does not affect oven operation. An acoustic signal sounds upon completion.
Accessories:
- Wire shelf: For cookware, cake tins, and roasts. Features a special shape for heat circulation.
- Baking tray: For cakes and biscuits.
- Storage drawer: Located below the oven cavity for storage.
