Introduction
Extractor version
• The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and can also be used with
a filtering function by fitting one activated carbon filter (special
accessory).
• The unit features two outlet holes, one of which Ais located on the
top of the unit while the other Bis located on the rear.
• To connect up the hose, you should first fit the bayonet-mounting
flange C(Ø 120 mm) 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.
•Important! To use the back hole B, remove switch Ffrom the top
hole. See Fig 2.

• Move the lever Lto position A - Fig. 3.
• When connecting up the hood using a telescopic wall pipe, you
should use an inflammable outlet hose ABS 120 (120 mm Ø) E-Nr.
942 118 611 available as an accessory.
Filter Version
• The air is filtered and recirculated through the front grid.
• Move the lever Lto position F - Fig. 3.
You will need original AEG KFF activated carbon filter for this
function (see Special Accessories).
Summer/Winter Hood Conversion
• To avoid excessive heat loss during the winter months, we
recommend that the hood be converted from extractor version to
filter version.
• In order to convert the hood, a activated carbon filter (available as
an accessory) is required. Follow the instructions for operating the
hood to recirculate air.
• When the temperature outdoors becomes more mild (spring), the
filter can be removed and the hood converted once again for to
extraction. Please consult the assembly instructions for operating
the hood in extractor version.

Electrical connection
Safety warnings for the electrician
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, check that the
voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds to the mains power
supply available. Appliances fitted with a plug can be connected to
any standard power socket within easy access.
Should it be necessary to provide a fixed connection, the hood must
only be installed by an electrician authorised by the local electricity
board. To isolate the cooker hood from the mains, pull the mains plug.
If the appliance is permanently connected to the mains, then it must
be isolated from the mains using measures provided in the electrical
installation (fuses -unscrew-type fuses, cut-out, current trips or similar
that have a contact separation of >3mm when open).
The manufacture declines all responsibility for malfunctions resulting
from failure to comply with the above instructions.
If the power socket is applied directly above the hood this gives two
advantages:
1. The socket is not visible.
2. The appliance can be disconnected at need merely be removing the
plug.
Electrical connection
220-230 V – by means of fixed power cable with plug.
(Fixed connection of the appliance must only be carried out by an
authorised electrician.)

Installation
Safety warnings for kitchen unit installer
• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
120mm diameter hose.
• If the fumes must be forced out through the wall, you must obtain a
MKZ sizable wall exhaust pipe (with external exhaust and air
intake), E-Nr.- 610 899 004 (Ø 120 mm) which is one of our optional
parts.
•When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following
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 national decree 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 combus-
tion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be
connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning
appliances are installed.
• It is advisable to apply for authorization from the relevant controlling
authority when connecting the outlet to an unused 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.
• 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 approxi-
mately 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

75
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, 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 (120 mm Ø min.).
• Failure to observe these basic rules will drastically reduce the
performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.

Hood operation before and after cooking
• The hood should always be switched on before you start cooking
and left on for approximately 15 minutes after you have finished (fan
timer
min
).
Warnings on the activated carbon filter
• 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).

81
Display warning on saturation of activated
carbon filter
• 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.
• This means the activated carbon filter needs to be changed! (This
operation should be carried out every 120 operating hours!).
• Warning! The metal grease filters must be cleaned when you
change the activated carbon filter.
• Proceed as follows to remove and change the activated carbon
filter:
• Switch of the fan motor by pressing the button .
• Take the precaution of removing the cartridge fuses from their fuse
holders or tripping the automatic circuit breaker to ensure the fan
motor cannot be switched on accidentally.

• 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 flambécooking 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
