Electrolux GK69TCIO ceramic glass induction hob comes with a variety of features to make cooking easier and more enjoyable. With four induction cooking zones, you can boil water, fry, simmer, and more, all at the same time. The touch controls make it easy to select the desired heat setting, and the automatic warm-up function brings food to a boil quickly and then reduces the heat to maintain a simmer. The residual heat indicator lets you know when the cooking zones are still hot, and the child safety device prevents accidental activation.

• Objects that melt and things that boil over can burn onto the glass ceramic and should be removed straightaway.
• Do not use the cooking zones with empty cookware or without cookware.
• To avoid damaging cookware and glass ceramics, do not allow saucepans or frying pans to boil dry.
• The ventilation gap of 5mm between the worktop and front of the unit underneath it must not be covered.
6 Control panel
The cooking surface is divided into four cooking zones. In each cooking zone under the glass ceramic is an induction heating element, the middle of each one being marked with a cross on the glass ceramic surface.
Cookware can be placed on any of the cooking zones. But the cross must be completely covered by the cookware. The bottom of the cookware must be from 125 - 210 mm in diameter.
Cooking over two cooking zones
Large cookware can be heated with two cooking zones simultaneously. Either the two cooking zones on the left-hand side or on the right-hand side of the cooking surface are suitable for this.
1. Place cookware centrally on the two zones.
The cookware must cover at least two crosses.
2. Set the same heat setting for the two cooking zones (max. setting 8).
With different cookware there can be differences in the heat distribution. Good cooking results can be achieved with cookware with thick, flat bottoms.

Power Management
The cooking zones of the cooking surface have a maximum power.
The maximum power is reached when the heat setting 13 has been set for all cooking zones.
Two cooking zones generate a pair (see figure) and therefore, the power management shares the maximum available power between these cooking zones.
Using the timer
When the power function is selected for one cooking zone, the power management makes the additional power for this cooking zone available by reducing the power of the corresponding other cooking zone.
Example: the heat setting 13 is selected on one cooking zone. The power function is switched on for the corresponding cooking zone. The power function is carried out but the heat setting 13 of one of the cooking zones and the power function for the other cooking zone of the pair exceed the maximum power for both at the same time. For this purpose, the power management reduces the power of the cooking zone that switched on first from 13 to example 5 and the display of this cooking zone changes between 13 and 5 and then stays at the current possible maximum 5 (If the display changes between 13 and 5 or 13 and 3 or another value depends on the type of appliance and the size of the cooking zone).

Bottom of the cookware
The bottom of the cookware should be as thick and level as possible.
Pan size
Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the size of the bottom of the cookware up to a certain point. However the magnetic part of the bottom of the cookware must have a minimum diameter depending on the size of the cooking zone. Cookware with a bottom with a diameter of less than 12cm is not suitable.

Safety instructions
Warning!
This must be read!
The laws, ordinances, directives and standards in force in the country of use are to be followed (safety regulations, proper recycling in accordance with the regulations, etc.)
Installation may only be carried out by a qualified electrician. The minimum distances to other appliances and units are to be observed.
Anti-shock protection must be provided by the installation, for example drawers may only be installed with a protective floor directly underneath the appliance.
The cut surfaces of the worktop are to be protected against moisture using a suitable sealant.
The sealant seals the appliance to the work top with no gap. When building in, protect the underside of the appliance from steam and moisture, e.g. from a dishwasher or oven.
Avoid installing the appliance next to doors and under windows. Otherwise hot cookware may be knocked off the rings when doors and windows are opened.
Warning!
Risk of injury from electrical current.
• The electrical mains terminal is live.
• Make electrical mains terminal free of voltage.
• Follow connection schematic.
• Observe electrical safety rules.
• Ensure anti-shock protection by installing correctly.
• The appliance must be connected to the electrical supply by a qualified electrician.
• Loose and inappropriate plug and socket connections can make the terminal overheat.
continue for a while after the appliance is switched off.
The noises described are normal and do not refer to any defects.
• Have the clamping connections correctly installed by a qualified electrician.
• Use strain relief clamp on cable.
• In the event of single-phase or twophase connection, the appropriate mains cable of type H05BB-F Tmax
90°C (or higher) must be used.
• If this appliance’s mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cable (type H05BB-F Tmax 90°C; or higher). Please contact your local
Service Force Center for further advice.
A device must be provided in the electrical installation which allows the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm
Suitable isolation devices include line protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses are to be removed from the holder), earth leakage trips and contactors.
Sticking on the seal
• Clean the worktop in the area of the cutout section.
• Stick the one-sided self-adhesive sealing tape supplied all the way round the lower edge of the cooking surface along the outer edge of the glass ceramic panel. Do not stretch it. The cut ends should lie in the middle of one side. When you have cut it to length (add a few mm), press the two ends flush up against one another.
Sticking the seal to the rabbet
• Clean the rabbet in the work surface.
• Stick the one-sided self-adhesive sealing tape supplied onto the upper surface of the rabbet along the edges of the cut-out section.
• Cut the sealing tape into four pieces relating to the length of the edges of the rabbet.
