Testing the Operation of the Cooker
If supply pressure is above 1.20 kPa, then follow these instructions:
1. Turn all the burners to maximum.
2. Adjust the screw so that the test point pressure reads 0.85 kPa and tighten the nut slightly.
3. Turn the smallest burner to minimum and turn all the other burners off. Gently tap the regulator until
test point pressure is stable and read pressure.
4. Turn all the burners to maximum and read pressure. Evaluate the difference between this reading
and the one you read in Step 3.
5. Adjust the screw so that the difference between this reading and 1.0 kPa is about half the difference
between the two readings found in Steps 3 and 4.
6. Repeat Steps 3 to 5 until no further adjustment is needed.
NOTE: The 1.0 kPa should now be about halfway between the reading with all the burners on at maximum
and the reading when the small burner is on minimum (see diagram below).

7. Lock the nut.

Testing the cooker features

Observe the flame appearance on each burner. If it is much larger or smaller than expected, then the
injector size needs checking.
NOTE: When flame is unsatisfactory, then refer to the Electrolux Technical
Publications and correct the fault, if possible.
When the maximum flame appearance is correct, then check the turn-down setting on each burner. If
the settings appear to be incorrect, proceed as follows:
1. Adjust the bypass screw on each hotplate control cock. This is accessible when the control knob is
removed. Use a thin flat screwdriver inserted through a hole in the centre of the control cock spindle.
NOTE: If the hotplate control cock does not have a hole in the centre of the control cock spindle, then
remove the control panel and adjust the bypass screw mounted on the body of the hotplate control
cock.
2. Check the ignition on all burners both separately and in combination.
3. Check the operation of the electrical components, if applicable.
4. If you are satisfied that the cooker is operating correctly, then turn it off and show the customer how
to use it. Make sure you ask the customer to operate the clock and the controls.
NOTE: If the cooker cannot be adjusted to perform correctly, then inform the customer of the problem
and put a warning notice on the cooker. If the problem is dangerous, then disconnect the cooker.
If there is a fault, then the customer should be advised to contact the manufacturer's local service
organisation or the retailer.
