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.
For the Installer
• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
120mm diameter hose.
Should there already be an hose of diameter 100 mm that ducts to
the outside through the walls or roof, it is possible to use the 120/
100 mm adapter. In this case the hood will be slightly more noisy.
•When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following
minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring
surfaces:
electric cookers 600 mm
gas cookers 650 mm
coal and oil cookers 700 mm min.
• The national standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maxi-
mum 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
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 only
— 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. Fig. 1.
• In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a
diameter equal to the outlet hole.
Should there already be an hose of diameter 100 mm that ducts to
the outside through the walls or roof, it is possible to use the 120/
100 mm adapter. In this case the hood will be slightly noisier.

Filter Version
• The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the
kitchen.
• You will need an original AEG KLF60/80 charcoal filter for the
filtering function. (See Special Accessories).

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 switches are located on the right-hand side of the hood.
• the light switch switches the hood lamp on and off
• the motor switch switches the motor on and off, enabling you to
select one of the three different speeds.

Maintenance and care
•The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity
supply before beginning any maintenance work.
Cleaning the hood
• Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild deter-
gent.
• Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products.
• Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s protective grid.
• Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grille using a damp cloth
and mild 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 absorb grease particles which
form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the
external ducted or internal recycling function.
Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed,
either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.
Removing the metal grease filter
• Press the handle Q that locks the grease filter N first towards the
opposite side and then extract downwards. Fig. 4.
Hand washing
Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a grease-

loosening 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 dishwasher. Select the 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 corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning
products).

Charcoal filter
• The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood
in its filtering function.
• To do this you will need an original AEG charcoal filter (see special
accessories).
•Replacing the charcoal filter
The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, we recommend that they
should be replaced approximately every three months or more often
if the hood is used for more than three hours per day.
•Fitting
Remove the grease filter.
Fit the charcoal filter on the lamp side, press in both red lugs on the
charcoal filter, and unclip the charcoal filter forwards (towards the
front edge of the appliance).
Refit the grease filter.
• To remove press both red lugs and remove the charcoal filter
downwards.
• 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 AEG Service
Force Centre.
