Introduction
The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and can also be used
with a filtering function by fitting activated carbon filters (special
accessory).
The unit features two outlet holes, one of which A is located on the Extractor
top of the unit while the other B is located on the rear. version
To connect up the hose, you should first fit the bayonet-mounting
flange C on the outlet required (if using the top outlet, fix the flange
in place using the screw supplied as shown in Fig. 1.
Close off the unused hole using the bayonet-fitting caps D.
If using the rear hole, open the air passage by removing the
partition (E — Fig. 2)
Move the lever F to position A — Fig. 3.
When connecting up the hood using a telescopic wall pipe,
you should preferably using the uninflammable outlet hose

Electrical connections
Check that the power supply voltage shown on the rating plate
corresponds to the mains supply before proceeding to make any
electrical connections. If the unit is supplied ready-fitted with a
plug, it can be connected to any easily accessible socket installed
in compliance with the regulations in force.
If a fixed connection is required, the hood must be installed
exclusively by an electrician registered with the local electrical
company. The hood should be installed using an omnipolar switch
with contacts that open to at least 3 mm.
Fused switches can be used for this purpose (with cartridge fuses
that can be extracted from the fuse holder), as can automatic
circuit breakers and contactors which open to more than 3 mm.
We decline all responsibility for any problems or faults caused by
a failure to observe the above instructions.
Installing the socket directly above the hood or above the wall unit
mounted above the hood offers the following advantages:
1. The socket cannot be seen.
2. The unit can be disconnected whenever required by simply
taking out the plug.
Electrical connections
230 V - using fixed power supply line with plug.
(The unit should only be connected up by an authorized electri¬
cian).

Montage
When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
120mm diameter hose.
If the outlet hose is installed in a horizontal position, it must
nevertheless be slanted at an angle of 10° so that the air can flow
outside without impediment.
Safety
warning for
kitchen unit
installer
If the cooking vapour is passed through an outside wall, you will
need a telescopic wall pipe No. E 610 899 004 (120 mm 0) from
our range of special accessories.
When installing the hood, make sure you respect the follow¬
ing minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/
ring surfaces:
electric cookers 650 mm
gas cookers 650 mm
coal and oil cookers 700 mm min.
The hood cannot be connected to flues of other appliances
that run on energy sources other than electricity.
It is advisable to apply for authorization from the relevant
controlling authority when connecting the outlet to an un¬
used chimney flue or combustion gas duct.
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.
The European decree on fuel-burning systems specifies a
maximum depression of 0.04 bar in such rooms.
Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to
a chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combina¬
tion) 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.
27

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 only
— keep the hose as large as possible (120 mm 0).
Failure to observe these basic rules will drastically reduce
the performance and increase the noise levels of the extrac¬
tor hood.

— Drill four holes in the base of the wall unit using the template
supplied.
— Mount the hood unit on the base of the wall unit using four
4,2 x 35 mm screws. — Fig.4

— Fit the four 8 mm screw anchor plugs in the wall.
— Screw two 5 x 45 mm screws in points H but do not tighten
them fully home.
— Adjust the unit so that it is positioned at a right angle to the wall
by turning the two support screws G.
— Now hang the hood on the wall (holes H). Tighten the first two
screws and, for safety’s sake, screw the other two 5 x 45 mm
screws (holes I) into the holes in the hood. — Fig. 6

Safety
warnings
for user
Never leave a cooking hob or ring on without a pot or pan on top
of it, to avoid the possibility of excess heat damaging the unit. Gas,
oil or coal cooker flames in particular should never be left uncov¬
ered.
Special care should be taken when using deep fat fryers since the
oil in them can overheat and burst into flames.
The risk of a fat fire increases when using dirty oil.
It is extremely important to note that overheating can cause a fire.
Never carry out any flambe 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, causing a fire hazard.

The hood should always be switched on before you start cooking
and left on for approximately 15 minutes after you have finished
(fan timer [i]).
The activated carbon filter should be replaced at least once every
120 operating hours.
The activated carbon filter cannot be cleaned or reused.
The effective elimination of cooking odours depends on the
functional adaptation of the volume of activated carbon to the
hood’s air flow and a carefully determined position of the filter
inside the hood.
This combination inevitably decreases the air flow compared to
the extractor version.
A decisive parameter for the elimination of cooking odours is what
is known as the “residence time” of the air sucked into the hood in
the activated carbon filter.
The correct “residence time” can only be obtained using original
AEG activated carbon filters (see Special Accessories).
After 120 operating hours, the letter (C) (activated carbon filter)
will flash on and off on the display (D) in alternation with the fan
speed setting.
