Safety warnings
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 hobs 430 mm
gas hobs 50 mm
coal and oil cookers 700 mm min.
The hood can be installed above these heights
but for optimum performance it should be
installed at the distance quoted for the
appropriate heat source.
 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 approxi-
mately 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 perfor-
mance 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
 eep bends in outlet hose to a minimum
 never install the hoses with an acute angle,
they must always follow a gentle curve.
 eep 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.
For the user
 The coo er hood is designed to extract
unpleasant odours from the itchen, 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 coo ers it is
essential to avoid open flames.
 Also, when frying, eep the deep frying pan on
the coo er top/coo er under careful control.
 The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to
overheating.
 The ris 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
(ta e the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or
switch off the automatic circuit brea er).
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 shoc .

Introduction
 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 ELECTROLUX
charcoal filter for this function (Available from
your local ELECTROLUX Service Force
Centre).
Extractor version
 In this version fumes are extracted to the
outside via a hose.
Filter Version
 The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and
returned to the itchen.
 You will need an original ELECTROLUX
charcoal filter for the filtering function. (See
Special Accessories).

The blower is controlled by shifting the sliding
switch.
The extractor part (vapour catcher) of the hood is
used to switch the blower on and off when the
appliance is switched on (Motor).
When the vapour catcher of the appliance is
withdrawn (without preceding disengagement of
the hood via the switches), the set fan output is
automatically re-engaged.
If the extractor part is re-inserted without operation
of the switches, first the blower is switched off.
The lighting can be separately switched on and off
with the sliding switch.
Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start
coo ing then you will get an underpressure in the
itchen. It should be left on after coo ing for about
15 minutes or until all odours have disappeared.
Correct ventilation
If the coo er hood is to wor correctly there must
be an under pressure in the itchen. It is important
to eep the itchen windows closed and have a
window in an adjacent room open.

Control Panel - EFP 6410
 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 coo ing, you will then get an under pressure in the itchen.
The hood should be left on after coo ing for about 15 minutes or until all the odours have disappeared. The
control switches are located on the units front panel:

Control device for grease and
charcoal filters
This hood is fitted with a device that signals when it
is necessary to clean the grease filter or the
charcoal filter (in the case of recirculation version
with charcoal filter).
On delivery, the hood is not supplied with an
charcoal filter, so the saturation indicator will be
disabled.
If the hood is to be used with a charcoal filter, the
saturation
indicator light must be enabled as follows:
Press buttons B and G simultaneously and hold
them for 3 seconds. At first only the grease filter
LED D will light up, but when the charcoal filter
LED E lights up the saturation indicator will be
enabled.
To disable it: Press buttons B and G again
simultaneously and hold
them for 3 seconds, until the charcoal filter LED
goes out.
Grease filter LED D)
LED D will start to flash when it is time to clean
the grease filter.
Cleaning will be necessary after 40 wor ing hours.
Always comply with the maintenance instructions
for the grease filter.
Charcoal filter LED E)
The charcoal filter LED E will start to flash when
the charcoal filter needs to be replaced.
This operation is necessary after approximately
160 wor ing hours.
Correct ventilation
If the coo er hood is to wor correctly there must
be an under pressure in the itchen. It is important
to eep the itchen windows closed and have a
window in an adjacent room open.
The extractor part (visor) of the hood is used to
switch the fan on and off when the appliance is
switched on (Motor).
When the visor of the appliance is withdrawn, the
fan automatically switches on.
If the visor is pushed in without operating the
switches, the fan is switched off.
The lighting can be separately switched on and off
with the slide switch.

Cleaning the hood
 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 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 absorb
grease particles which form during coo ing 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 wee s.
Open the metal grease filter
 Pull the lateral handles towards the bottom, by
placing them in the front and removing the filter.
Fig. 3.
Hand washing
Soa 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).
Maintenance and care
Warning
 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
lin ed to inappropriate maintenance or failure to
observe the above safety recommendations..

Charcoal filter
 The charcoal filter should only be used if you
want to use the hood in the recirculation
function.
 To do this you will need an original
ELECTROLUX charcoal filter (available from
your local Service Force Centre).
Replacing the charcoal filter
E-Nr. 10 899 421
The charcoal filter must normally be replaced at
least once every year. This filter cannot be
washed or regenerated.
To guarantee proper absorption of odours the
wor ing volume of the charcoal must be
proportionate to the hood air flow. In this case
the high quality of the charcoal will ensure
efficient odour removal for approximately one
year, assuming that the hood is used normally.
For this reason you should always use original
AEG filters only, ma ing sure they are replaced
when necessary.
Mounting
1. Pull out the vapour catcher (Fig. 1 - A).
2. Remove first the rear then the front grease
filters.
3. Insert the charcoal filter into the lugs of the
holding frame above using the 2 red clips to
retain it below, press the red clips inwards, and
insert the charcoal filter in the holding frame.
Fig. 4.
Dismounting:
1. Press both red lugs upwards (towards the
inside of the housing) and remove the charcoal
filter downwards.
2. Clean the internal housing only with warm
washing-up liquid suds (never use any abrasive
cleaners, brushes, or scouring agents).
 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.
Changing the light bulb s)
 Disconnect the unit from the mains power
supply.
 Pull out the drawer.
 Open the lamp cover support.
 Replace the old light bulb with a new light bulb
of the same ind.
 Replace the lamp cover support.
 If the light does not come on, ma e sure the
bulb has been screwed in correctly before
contacting the technical assistance service.

Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter
E-Nr. 942 120 399
Unli e other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE
charcoal 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, in 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 stuc 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
temperature of maximum 100º C.
After approximately three years of use, the
charcoal filter should be replaced with a new, as
the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.
