Before installing or using this appliance please read this instruction book carefully paying particular attention to
the safety warnings on the following page.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Wall mounting
First decide how the hood is going to be used, extraction or recirculation.
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.
