you turn the knob, you can set a different increase /
decrease speed for the settable minutes.
Turn and release: minutes increase / decrease
one by one.
Example: 00:00 > 00:01 > 00:02 > 00:03 > etc.
Hold turn: minutes increase / decrease one by
one for the first 3 minutes, then the timer switches
directly to the nearest multiple of 15, increasing or
decreasing in 15 minute steps.
Example: 00:00 > 00:01 > 00:02 > 00:03 > 00:15 > 00:30 >
00:45 > 01:00 > 01:15 > etc.
When setting the minutes you will only see the
icon. Once 60 minutes have been exceeded the icon
will also appear.
Blackout management
After a blackout, there can be two scenarios depend-
ing on how long the appliance has been without
power.
1. A few seconds to a few minutes: the appliance
restores the settings and features set before the
power loss event.
2. A few minutes to hours: The appliance does not
save the previous settings and will have to be
reprogrammed.
First power on
When the range is first plugged in, or when the power
supply has been interrupted 12:00 PM” will flash on
the timer display.
It will stop flashing once the current time is set up as

Cooking with the induction cooktop
Preliminary information
• Each zone of the induction cooktop has its own
dedicated display, where the power level and
the function symbols are indicated.
• Each zone of the cooktop can be activated by
pressing and then turning the relative cooktop
knobs.
• Cooktop knobs can only be pressed when they
are in the OFF position (zone deactivated).
Once a zone has been activated (knob not in the
OFF position), simply turn the relative knob to
change the power level or to deactivate the
zone.
What is Electromagnetic induction?
Induction cooking uses electromagnets to create heat
in compatible cookware.
Below each cooking zone on an induction cooktop,
there is a copper coil. When the cooking zone is
turned on, the electricity turns the coil into a type of
magnet that heats metal cookware in the cooking
zone.
Induction features
Because heat starts in the cookware instead of the
cooktop, induction offers several advantages.
Fast Heating: Cookware will heat up faster than on a
conventional electric cooktop. Pay close attention to
avoid scorching food when starting to cook. You may
need to use a lower setting for cooking food than you
are used to.
Precise Control: The heat going into the cookware will
change immediately when you change the setting of
the cooking zone.
Even Heating: Cookware will typically heat more
evenly on an induction cooktop, so you are less likely
to have hot or cool spots in the cookware.
Cooler Cooktop: An induction cooktop will be cooler
when you remove the cookware than a conventional
electric cooktop would be. Because the cooktop
doesn’t get as hot, you are not as likely to get burned.
Spills are also less likely to cook onto the surface,
making clean-up easier.
Energy Efficiency: Induction cooking wastes less
energy than a conventional cooktop, so it uses less
electricity.
Sounds
The magnetic field over the induction cooking zone
may cause cookware to vibrate, creating a buzzing or
humming noise. These sounds are not unusual, espe-
cially at high settings.
Cookware that is not perfectly flat on the bottom may
vibrate slightly against the cooktop.
A loose handle may vibrate in its socket.
Multi-material cookware may allow small vibrations in
its structure.
Sounds are less likely to occur with heavier, higher
quality cookware.
An induction cooktop may also produce faint clicking
sounds from the electronic switches that maintain the
desired cooking temperature. You may also hear a fan
that cools the electronics inside the cooktop.
IMPORTANT
To avoid damaging the appliance, do not force the
knobs to turn if you have not pressed them first.
CAUTION
Although induction cooking zones do not produce
heat, they can become hot from contact with hot
cookware. Burns may occur if a cooking zone or the
surrounding area is touched before it has cooled to
a safe temperature.
NOTE
Be sure to read detailed instructions for induction
cooktop cleaning in the “Care and Cleaning” section
and “Before You Call” checklist section of this Use
and Care Guide.
BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
background
15
Use the correct cookware type
The magnetic cooking zone sensors located below the
cooktop surface require the use of cookware made
with magnetic material in order to start the heating
process on any of the cooking zones.
Use only cookware with a perfectly flat bottom suit-
able for induction cooking. The use of cookware with
an irregular bottom could affect the efficiency of the
heating system and even prevent the pan from being
detected on the cooking zone.
Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom
of the cookware. Cookware should have fl at bottoms
that make good contact with the entire surface of the
heating element.
Cookware material types
Cookware material is especially important when using
an induction cooktop. The cookware must contain
magnetic iron or steel to work on an induction cook-
top. Common materials for induction cookware
include the following:
Stainless Steel - Slow heat conductor with
uneven cooking results. Durable, easy to clean,
and resists staining. Some types of stainless steel
will not work on an induction cooktop. Use the
magnet test to check stainless steel cookware.
Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor that retains
heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking tem-
perature is reached.
Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating character-
istics will vary depending on the base material.
Porcelain-enamel on a compatible metal will
work on an induction cooktop. Use the magnet
test to check porcelain-enamel cookware.
Cookware sold as induction-ready will often have a
symbol printed on the bottom by the manufacturer.
The magnet test
To see if a piece of cookware will work on your induc-
tion cooktop, try to stick a magnet to it. If the magnet
clings firmly to the bottom of the cookware, the cook-
ware will work on your induction cooktop. If the mag-
net clings weakly or not at all, the cookware will not
heat up on your induction cooktop.
IMPORTANT
• Each cooking zone is fitted with a magnetic
sensor that distinguishes between suitable and
unsuitable cookware.
• If unsuitable cookware is used, no heat is gen-
erated and no cooking will be performed.
• The alternating symbols and appear
when improper cookware is used, with missing
pan or when you remove the pan during cook-
ing.
CAUTION
Proper cookware on an operating induction cooking
zone will heat up very quickly. If an empty piece of
cookware is left on an operating induction cooking
zone, the rapid change in temperature may warp or
damage the cookware.
Do NOT place hot cookware on the control panel.
The heat may damage the electronic parts.
BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

Minimum pan size requirements
USE THE CORRECT SIZE COOKWARE - The
cooking zones available on the Induction cooktop
require a MINIMUM pan size to be used at each loca-
tion. We recommend using cookware with a diameter
that allows efficient cooking.
Below is a summary table showing the recommended
diameter of the cookware for each cooking zone.
Example of correct pan arrangement on cooking
zones 1 - 2 - 4 - 5:
* In the (3) case, the measurement refers to the length
of a an elongated pan. For the width of this pan keep
a maximum of 200 mm - 7” 7/8.
First power on
When the range is first plugged in, or when the power
supply has been interrupted, all the symbols on the
cooktop display light up for one second.
Cooktop power management
The cooktop is equipped with a power management
module which optimizes or limits energy consumption.
If the total power levels set exceed the maximum
allowed limit, the electronic board automatically man-
ages the power supplied to the cooking zones.
The levels set by the automatic management system
are shown on the display.
A flashing a power level icon indicates that it will be
automatically limited to a new value selected by the
power management module.

Cooktop operation time limitation
The cooktop is equipped with an automatic device
that limits its duration of use.
If you do not change the cooking zone settings, the
maximum operating duration of each individual zone
depends on the power level selected.
When the device for limiting the operating time is acti-
vated, the cooking zone switches off, a short signal is
emitted and if hot the symbol appears on the display.
Switching on the cooking zones
To switch on a cooking zone, press and then turn the
corresponding knob clockwise. A short beep will be
emitted.
The corresponding display shows the selected power
level, “ON” appears below the central cooking zone
display and all the other cooking zone displays briefly
display “0” and then go off. (the example shows the
front left cooking zone at level 3).
Turning off the cooking zones
To switch off a cooking zone, simply turn the corre-
sponding knob to OFF”. All the cooking zone displays
show flashing red dots at their lower right corner and
the word “ON” below the central cooking zone display
for 10 seconds.

Cooking with the oven
With this range, you can bake many kinds of food in
several ways.
Four different cooking functions are available: different
heating elements, combinations of them and internal
fans will be activated, according to the type of dish
you intend to cook.
List of cooking functions
Manual cooking
Preliminary information
• The word “START” flashes in the upper right cor-
ner of the display to indicate that is possible to
start the selected function.
• Once a function is started or when setting the
temperature and timing functions the word
START” disappears.
• When you select a function you can set the tem-
perature, the minute minder (see “Cooking
timer”), the cooking time (see “Timed cooking”)
and the delay time (see “Delayed cooking”)
exactly in this order.
Every function can be paused at any time by sim-
ply opening the door. During the pause the inside
lights turns on, the heating elements are deacti-
vated as well as the oven fan (if the function pro-
vides for fan activation) and the flashing word

Oven cooking tips
Air circulation in the oven
If using 1 rack, place it in center of oven. If using multi-
ple racks, stagger cookware as shown in the following
figures.
For optimum air circulation and best baking results,
allow at least 2” around the cookware for proper air
circulation and be sure pans and cookware are not
touching each other, the oven door, the sides or the
back of the oven cavity.
The hot air must circulate around the pans and cook-
ware in the oven for even heat to reach around the
food.
Pan position for one rack baking
When baking with two or more racks we recommend
arranging the pans on the upper rack closer to the
door and the pans on the lower rack closer to the fans
(see the figure below).
Make sure that pans don't touch the internal glass
pane of the door or the back wall of the oven.
Pan position for four rack baking
Bake function tips
• Use the bake function to cook most food items
that require normal cooking temperatures.
• As much as possible, use only one rack on posi-
tion 2 or 3 and center the pans. If using two
racks, place them in positions 1 and 4.
• Dark or dull pans absorb more heat than shiny
bakeware resulting in dark or overbrowning of
foods. It may be necessary to reduce the oven
temperature or cook time to prevent overbrown-
ing of some foods. Dark pans are recommended
for pies. Shiny pans are recommended for cakes,
cookies and muffins.
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like
cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads.
• Do not open oven door often. Opening the door
will reduce the temperature in the oven and may
increase the cook time.
Convection Bake function tips
• The Convection Bake function is optimized for
multiple rack cooking.
• When baking cookies and biscuits on multiple
racks, use positions 1 and 4. When baking cakes
on multiple racks, use positions 1 and 3.
• Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans
with no sides or very low side to allow heated air
to circulate around the food.
• Food baked on pans with a dark finish will cook
faster.
• When placing multiple food items in the oven,
allow at least 2” of space between them for
proper air circulation.
• Use tested recipes with times adjusted for Con-
vection Baking when using this mode. Check
food at the minimum cooking time.
WARNING
FOOD POISONING HAZARD. Do not let food sit for
more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing
so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Foods
that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or
poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even
when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for
more than 1 hour before cooking begins and should
be removed promptly once cooking has ended.
NOTE
Always use caution when removing food from the
oven.
USING THE OVEN

Broil function tips
• Use the Broil function to cook meats that require
direct exposure to radiant heat for optimum
browning results.
• Always allow the oven to preheat before placing
the food in it.
• For proper broiling, use the broiler pan (1) and its
insert (2) to place the meat on as shown in the
figure below. The broiler pan insert contains slots
that allow grease from the meat to drain into the
broil pan.
• Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce
some smoke. If the smoke is excessive please
refer to the “Oven problems” table.
• Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and
cook the second side. Season and serve.
• Always pull the rack out to the “stop” position
before turning or removing food (see “Regular
rack”).
Convection Roast function tips
Convection roast combines a cook cycle with the
convection fan and heating element to rapidly
roast meats and poultry. Heated air circulates
around the meat from all sides, sealing in juices
and flavors. Meats cooked with this function are
crispy brown on the outside while staying moist
on the inside. In addition, there is no need to
reduce the oven temperature when using con-
vection roast.
• The Convection Roast function is optimized for
multiple oven rack cooking.
• Place an oven rack in position 2 (next up from
bottom).
• Please refer to the “Convection Roast function
cooking table” for temperature and time instruc-
tions when cooking with this function.
• Do not cover foods when dry roasting - this will
prevent the meat from browning properly.
Meat probe cooking tips
• For some foods, especially poultry and roasts,
testing the internal temperature is the most effec-
tive way of insuring that your food has been
properly cooked.
• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into
the center of the lowest large muscle or joint. For
dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles, insert the
probe into the center of the food. When cooking
fish, insert the probe just above the gill.
• For whole poultry or turkey, insert the probe into
the thickest part of the inner thigh, below the leg.
• In general, place the temperature probe trans-
versely in the thickest part of the food and for
least 3/4 of its length.
WARNING
• Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door.
If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the
fire or use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water
or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and
water can cause a grease fire to spread and
cause personal injury.
• Use potholders or oven mitts when working
with a hot oven.
Consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry,
seafood or shellfish may increase your risk of
food borne illness.
NOTE
The broiler pan and the insert are not included with
the appliance.

• For very thick pieces of meat, take care to insert
the entire length of the probe to ensure correct
temperature detection.

Special door care instructions
Do not close the oven door until all the interior
oven racks are fully inserted and retracted to the
back of the oven.
• Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other
object. The oven door glass may break or even
break unexpectedly at a later time.
• Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the oven
door glass may weaken its structure causing an
increased risk of breakage at a later time.
• You may use a glass cleaner on the outside of
the oven door glass. Do not spray or allow water
or the cleaner to enter or drip down into the
oven door vents. First spray cleaner onto the
cloth and then wipe the oven door clean.
• Do not use strong oven cleaners, powders or

Cooktop cleaning and maintenance
CONSISTENT AND PROPER CLEANING IS ESSENTIAL
TO MAINTAINING YOUR CERAMIC GLASS COOK-
TOP.
• Do not use steam jets to clean the appliance.
• Do not use cleaning products containing chlo-
rine, ammonia or bleach on steel parts or parts
with metallic finishes on the surface (e.g. anodiz-
ing, nickel- or chromium-plating).
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents on
glass parts (e.g. powder products, stain removers
and metallic sponges).
• Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp
metal scrapers.
• Do not slide anything metal or glass across the
cooktop.
• Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or
work surface in the kitchen.
Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop sur-
face without a pan.
Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass
cooktop, they may cause it to crack or break.
Cleaning recommendations for the ceramic
glass surface
To maintain the surfaces, clean them regularly after
each use once they have cooled down. Any marks left
by the use of pans with aluminum bases can be wiped
off with a damp cloth soaked in vinegar. If, after cook-
ing, burnt residues remain, remove them with water
and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
Grains of sand which may end up on the cooktop
while cleaning lettuce or potatoes can scratch the
cooktop when you move pans around.
Therefore, make sure that no grains of sand are left on
the cooktop.
Changes in color do not affect the function and stabil-
ity of the glass. It is not a question of changes to the
cooktop material, but simply due to residues which
were not removed and therefore charred.
Shiny spots can form due to the bases of pans rubbing
on the surface, especially if they are aluminum, and the
use of unsuitable cleaning agents. They are difficult to
remove using common cleaning products. You may
need to repeat the cleaning process several times.
Using aggressive detergents or sliding the base of
pans on the surface can, over time, wear away the
decorations of the cooktop and could cause spots to
form.
Regular daily cleaning
Always use only specific products that do not contain
abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Pour the product
onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thor-
oughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfiber cloth.
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD - Dis-
connect the appliance from the
power supply before carrying out
cleaning.
WARNING
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop.
The fumes can be hazardous to your health and can
chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
CAUTION
Before cleaning the cooktop, make sure the controls
are turned to OFF and that the cooktop is COOL.
CARE AND CLEANING
background
47
Weekly routine cleaning
Clean and maintain the cooktop once a week using a
standard product for cleaning glass. Always follow the
manufacturer's instructions. The silicone in these prod-
ucts creates a protective water- and dirt-repellent film.
All the dirt remaining on the film and can be removed
easily. Just wipe the surface with a clean cloth. Make
sure that no detergent remains on the cooktop surface
because it will react aggressively when the cooktop is
heated and can alter its structure.
Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers as they
will damage the surfaces. Use ordinary non-abrasive
products with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if
necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth
or a microfiber cloth. Do not allow residues of sugary
foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If allowed to
set for too long, sugar residue could pit the enamel lin-
ing of the oven.

Many factors affect baking results. See “Oven cooking tips” for
hints, cause and corrections.
Adjust the recipe’s recommended power levels or cooking times.
Cookware is too lightweight or warped. Use heavier quality cook-
ware so foods being prepared may cook more evenly.
Fan noise when the appliance is off
This range is equipped with a cooling fan that runs during the
cooking process to cool internal electronic components. It is nor-
mal for this fan to continue to run for an extended period of time,
even when the oven is off.
Flames inside oven or smoking from
oven vents
Excessive spillovers in oven. For example, this will happen for pie
spillovers or large amounts of grease left on the oven bottom.
Wipe up excessive spillovers before switching on the oven. If
flames or excessive smoke are present see “Broil function tips” in
the Setting Oven cooking tips section.

Excessive oven smoke during broiling
Meat too close to the broiler element. Reposition the rack to pro-
vide more clearance between the meat and the broiler. Pour a
small amount of water into the broiler pan before cooking to pre-
vent meat grease from producing smoke due to intense heating.
Do not let the water overflow from the pan. Meat not properly
prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut any remaining fatty
edges to prevent curling but do not cut into the lean. Grid on
broiler pan wrong side-up. Grease does not drain into broiler pan.
Broiler pan used without grid or grid covered with aluminum foil.
DO NOT use the broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid with
aluminum foil.
Oven needs to be cleaned. Grease has built up on oven surfaces.
Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling frequently. Grease or
food spatters cause excessive smoking.
Cooktop problems
Problem Solution
Cookware is too hot or not hot enough
Incorrect surface control setting. Adjust power level setting.
Cookware does not heat or does not
heat evenly
Be sure the correct surface control knob is turned on for the cook-
ing zone needed.
Cookware is light weight or warped. Use only flat, evenly bal-
anced, medium or heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better
than warped pans. Cookware materials and weight of the mate-
rial affect heating. Heavy and medium weight pans heat evenly.
Because lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.
Control for power level setting not
responding
Wait 5-6 seconds without any pressing the control to allow it to
reset.
Areas of discoloration with metallic
sheen on cooktop surface
Mineral deposits from water and food. Remove them and buff
with a non-abrasive cloth or sponge.
Scratches or abrasions on cooktop
surface
Coarse particles such as salt or hardened soils between cooktop
and utensils can cause scratches. Be sure the cooktop surface
and bottoms of utensils are clean before use. Small scratches do
not affect cooking and will become less visible with time.
Cleaning materials not recommended for ceramic-glass cooktop
have been used.
Cookware with a rough bottom was used. Use smooth, flat-bot-
tomed cookware.
Metal marks on the cooktop
Sliding or scraping of metal utensils on cooktop surface. Do not
slide metal utensils on the cooktop surface. Buff with a non-abra-
sive cloth or sponge. For more information, see “Cooktop clean-
ing and maintenance”.
Brown streaks or specks on cooktop
surface
Boil overs are cooked onto the surface. For more information see
“Cooktop cleaning and maintenance”.

Electrolux ECFI3668AS Questions and Answers


#1 Why does my oven make noises when I’m cooking?

Temperature changes during preheat and cool-down can make parts of the range
expand and contract. The controls click as they work to create even cooking
temperatures. Different fans run to heat up the oven or cool down different parts of
oven, even when it’s off. These sounds are normal.
