If you have any queries regarding this appliance please contact Customer Care for advice. Please keep this instruction book for future reference and pass it on to any future owner of the appliance. 2 Safety warnings For the installer the following rules must be followed to obtain optimal operation: — short and straight outlet hose — keep bends in outlet hose to a minimum — never install the hoses with an acute angle, they must always follow a gentle curve. — keep the hose as large as possible (preferably the same diameter as the outlet hole). • Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically reduce the performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood. • When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a 150mm diameter hose. Attention: The hose is not supplied and must be purchased separately. • When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces: electric cookers 500 mm gas cookers 650 mm coal and oil cookers 800 mm min. • The national Standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum depression of 0.04 mbar in such rooms. • The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or combustion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning appliances are installed. • The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations laid down by the relevant authorities. • When the unit is used in its extractor version, a sufficiently large ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions that are approximately the same as the outlet hole. • National and regional building regulations impose a number of restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning appliances connected to a chimney, such as coal or oil room-heaters and gas fires, in the same room. • Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to a chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combination) is ventilated from outside using a suitable ventilation hole approximately 500-600 cm2 large to avoid the possibility of a depression being created during operation of the hood. • If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling authority or building inspector’s office. • Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is “outlet hole of the same size as the ventilation hole”, a hole of 500-600 cm2, which is to say a larger hole, could reduce the performance of the extractor hood. • If the hood is used in its filtering function, it will operate simply and safely in the above conditions without the need for any of the aforementioned measures. • When the hood is used in its extractor function, For the user • The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam. • Always cover lighted elements, to prevent excess heat from damaging the appliance. In the case of oil, gas and coal fired cookers it is essential to avoid open flames. • Also, when frying, keep the deep frying pan on the cooker top/cooker under careful control. • The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to overheating. • The risk of self-ignition increases when the oil being used is dirty. • It is extremely important to note that overheating can cause a fire. • Never carry out any flambé cooking under the hood. • Always disconnect the unit from the power supply before carrying out any work on the hood, including replacing the light bulb (take the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or switch off the automatic circuit breaker). • It is very important to clean the hood and replace the filter at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so could cause grease deposits to build up, resulting in a fire hazard. • The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. • Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. • WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is switched off before replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock. 3 Description of the Appliance • The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam. • The hood is supplied as a filter unit (with charcoal filter already supplied and fitted) and can also be used with an extractor function function by removing the charcoal filter. To the outside Hose Coupling ring Extractor version • In this version fumes are extracted to the outside via a hose connected to the coupling ring. Attention: The hose is not supplied and must be purchased separately. • In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole. Fig. 1 - Extractor version Deflector Recirculation Version • The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the kitchen through the front grid. • You will need an original Electrolux charcoal filter for this function (Available from your local Electrolux Service Force Centre). • Fix the deflector using 2 screws Ø 3x9 mm. • Optionally, the position of the chimney elements can be changed. When using the hood in the filter version the chimney must be fixed at the top, with the air outlet grill at the side. Fig. 2 - Recirculation version 4 Control Panel • Best results are obtained by using a low speed for normal conditions and a high speed when odours are more concentrated. Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking, you will then get an under pressure in the kitchen. The hood should be left on after cooking for about 15 minutes or until all the odours have disappeared. The control switches are located on the unit’s front panel: ON/OFF Extractor fan switch Push-button 1 Light switch Push-button 2 Push-button 3 • the light switch switches the hood lamp ON and OFF; • ON/OFF Extractor fan switch - Push-button 1: used to turn the fan off and to set the fan to speed 1. • Push-button 2: used to set the fan to speed 2. • Push-button 3: used to set the fan to speed 3. Fig. 3 - Control Panel Correct ventilation If the cooker hood is to work correctly there must be an under pressure in the kitchen. It is important to keep the kitchen windows closed and have a window in an adjacent room open. 5 Maintenance and Care • The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any maintenance work. Cleaning the hood Warning • Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild detergent. • Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products. • Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s protective grid. • Wash the outside surfaces using a mild washing-up liquid solution. Never use caustic detergents or abrasive brushes or powders. • Only ever clean the control panel and filter grille using a damp cloth and a mild washing-up liquid solution • It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard. • Failure to observe the instructions on cleaning the unit and changing the filters will cause a fire hazard. You are therefore strongly recommended to follow these instructions. • The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations. Metal grease filter • The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease particles which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the external extraction or internal recycling function. Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks. Handle Removing the metal grease filter • Pull the handle downards, then remove the filter. Hand washing Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a little washing-up liquid, then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the grease filters when they are dry. Dishwasher Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select most powerful washing programme and highest temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when they are dry. When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact on its performance. • Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent solution only (never use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes). Fig. 4 - Removing the metal grease filter 6 Charcoal filter • The charcoal filter is already supplied and mounted in place. • The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in the recirculation function. • Cleaning/replacing the carbon filter Unlike other carbon filters, the LONGLIFE carbon filter can be cleaned and reactivated. At normal use the filter should be cleaned every second month (when using the hood 2.5 hours per day, on avarage). The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the highest temperature (65º C). Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and later causes bad odours. To reactivate the carbon, the filter should be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a maximum temperature 100º C. After approximately three years of use, the carbon filter should be replaced with a new one, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced. • Fitting Remove the frame i which supports the filter h by turning 90° the two knobs g. Insert the charcoal filter inside the frame and put all parts back in their place. • To remove proceed in the reverse order. • Always specify the hood model code number and serial number when ordering replacement filters. This information is shown on the registration plate located on the inside of the unit. • The charcoal filter can be ordered from your local ELECTROLUX Service Force Centre. h g i g g g h Fig. 5 - Fitting the Charcoal Filter Changing the light bulb • Disconnect the cooker hood from the main supply. • Remove the lamp cover, use a screw driver as a lever. • Replace the old bulb with a new one of the same type. • Refit the lamp cover. • If the light does not come on, make sure the bulb has been inserted correctly before contacting your local Service Force Centre.

If you decide to use the hood in extraction version we suggest the upper section of the chimney is positioned so that the oulet slots are not visible once installation has ended. If, however, it is decided to use the hood in recycling version ENSURE that the side with slots is up (see also A-B-C sequence on Fig. 8). Ensure that the hood is not connected to the mains supply during installation, remove the grease filter and the charcoal filter frame. Attention! If necessary, steps 1-2-3 can be performed after step 16. • Rest the suction unit on a flat surface and thread the lower part of the hood onto it (1). • Make all the electrical connections between the two parts (2). • Fasten the hood to the suction unit using 4 screws (3). • Mark the wall with a centre line, this will aid mounting procedure (4), position the template so that the mid line printed on the template matches with the centre line previously marked, the lower side of the template corresponds to the lower side of the hood once mounted (5). • Drill two holes Ø 8mm and fix the support bracket with two wall plugs and screws (6). • Hang the hood (7) adjust its position (8-9) and from the inside of the hood sign one point for definitive fixing (10), remove the hood (11) and drill an hole Ø 8mm (12), fit a wall plugs (13). • Drill two holes Ø 8mm on the upper side close to the ceilling (14), fit two wall plugs and fix the chimney support with two screws (15). • Hang the hood again (16). • Fix it securely with a screw (17). To simplify the mounting operation remove the carbon filter frame. • In case the hood is to be used in filter version, mount the deflector F on the chimney support G with two screws and fit an exhaust pipe (18) to connect deflector to the outlet hole B of the hood. In case the hood is to be used in exhausting version, then the deflector must not be mounted and fit an exhaust pipe (18) to connect outlet hole B of the hood to the outside. • Make electrical connection (19), but leave the hood disconnected from the home general electric panel. • Fix the chimney (20a) to the chimney support (20b). Slide down the lower section on the proper housing on top of the hood. Refit the charcoal filter frame, the grease filter and connect the hood the the household mains supply and check that the hood works correctly. 12 B 14 180° 15 20a 20a A C - OK! 20b G H 20b F 1 7-16 11 1 1 4 7-16 11 18 19 6 B 98 2 5 9 8 9 8 12 13 10 2 17 1 1 3 Fig. 8 - Wall mounting 13 3 14 15 The Electrolux Group.
