Electrolux EKM 101199 X, Instruction Booklet

The first time the oven is used, it may give off

smells, these are caused by residues left by the

production processes and is quite normal. Ensure

there is adequate ventilation in the room before

performing this action.   

(It is necessary to heat

up the oven at the maximum temperature for

about 30-40 minutes in order to burn off these

residues). 

It is perfectly normal for the oven to

smoke when first used; wait for the smoke to stop

before placing food into the oven.

USING THE GAS BURNERS

The following symbols are found on the control

panel next to each knob:
- Circle

gas off

- Large flame

maximum setting

- Small flame

minimum setting

The minimum position is at the end of the anti-

clockwise rotation of the knob. Knob positions must

be set between max. and min.; never set the knobs

between max. and off.

MANUAL IGNITION

(during mains power failure)

To ignite the burner, press the knob of the selected

burner and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum

position then light with a match.

AUTOMATIC ELECTRIC IGNITION

To ignite the burner, press the knob of the selected

burner and turn it anticlockwise to the maximum

position. Keeping the knob pressed in, the automatic

ignition of the burner will operate.

In case of power failure, the burner can also be lit

using a match.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

• The diameter of the pan bottom should be     the

same as that of the  burner. The burner    flame

must never exceed the pan’s diameter.

• Use flat-bottomed pans only.

• Whenever possible, keep a lid on the pan     while

  cooking.

  This allows you cook using less heat.

• Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with as little

water as possible to reduce cooking times.

ATTENTION: Always use the oven with the oven

door closed.

The oven is fitted with: a grill shelf  for cooking food

in oven dishes or for placing directly on the grill

shelf itself, a drip-tray for cooking sweets, biscuits,

pizzas, etc., or for collecting juices and fats from

food cooked directly on the grill shelf.

Note: 

The following tables provide a guide for

cooking some of the most popular dishes. The

cooking times recommended in these tables are

approximate. After a few attemps, we are sure that

you will be able to adjust the times to get the results

you want.

APPLIANCES WITH SAFETY VALVE

Follow the same procedure described above to

ignite the burners.

In this case, however, once you have turned the

knob to the open setting, hold it pressed in for 10

seconds.

If for any reason the burner flame goes out, the

safety valve automatically shuts off the gas supply

to the burner in question.
