Also, do not use aluminium foil to protect the top during use. · Make sure pots do not protrude over the edges of the cooktop and that they are centrally positioned on the rings in order to obtain lower gas consumption. · Do not place unstable or deformed pots on the rings: they could tip over or spill their contents, causing accidents. · Pots must not enter the control zone. · If the control knobs become difficult to turn, please contact your local Service Force Centre. · As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering. electrolux 9 Cleaning and Mainteinance Disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply, before carrying out any cleaning or manteinance work.
