Safety warnings
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.
56
For the installer
• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
120mm diameter hose.
• When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces: electric cookers gas cookers coal and oil cookers
600 mm
650 mm
700 mm min.
• The national standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum depression of 0.04 bar 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 cm 2 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 cm 2 , 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, 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.

Description of the Appliance
• The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and can also be used with a filtering function by fitting one charcoal filter.
• You will need an original AEG charcoal filter for this function
(Available from your local AEG Service Force Centre).
Extractor version
• In this version fumes are extracted to the outside via a hose connected to the coupling ring A, placed in the outlet hole B. Fig. 1.
• In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole.

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:
• the light switch switches the hood lamp on and off
• the motor switch switches the cooking smoke and vapour extractor motor on and off, enabling you to select one of the three different speeds.
Motor switch
Light switch

The hood is also equipped with a micro-switch which can be found under the lower runner of the visor on the right hand side.
With this micro-switch, the appliance may be automatically switched on and off by opening and closing the pull-out panel, but only if the fan speed has already been set and the light button is turned to “I”.
Maintenance and care
• The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any maintenance work.
• Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s protective grid.
• Wash the outside surfaces using a delicate detergent solution. Never use caustic detergents or abrasive brushes or powders.
• Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grille using a damp cloth and delicate detergents.
• 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.
Metal grease filter
• The purpose of the grease filters is to aspirate grease particles which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the external evacuation or internal recycling function.
Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.
Open the metal grease filter
• To remove the grease filters, first pull the handles upwards, then extract the filter outwards. Fig. 6.
Hand washing
Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a greaseloosening cleaner, 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).
