Information about safety
For the installer
 When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be
fitted with a 120mm diameter hose.
Attention: The hose is not supplied and must be
purchased separately.
 When installing the hood, make sure you observe
the following minimum distance from the top edge
of the cooking hob/ring surfaces:
electric cookers 500 mm
gas cookers 650 mm
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob
specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
 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 local
authorities.
 When the unit is used in extraction mode, 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 recirculation mode, 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 extraction mode, 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).
 the length should be no more than:
3 metres with one 90° bend
2 metres with two 90° bends
Bends of more than 90° will reduce the efficiency
of the hood and reduce the airflow.
 Failure to observe these basic instructions will
drastically reduce the performance and increase the
noise levels of the extractor hood.
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.
 The appliance is not intended for use by young
children or infirm persons without supervision.
 Older children must be supervised if using the
appliance.
 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 shock.

Description of the aspiration hood
 The hood has been designed to aspirate the air
and conduct it outside. The hood can be used in
the recirculating (filtering) version by installing
an active carbon filter.
 An original Electrolux filter must be requested
from your Electrolux technical assistance office
for this function.
Version with evacuation outside
The aspiration hood has two exits; Dand E. Choose
the desired exit and mount flange G(bayonet plug)
Fix the flange.
Put cover Hon the unused exit. The air is aspirated
through an anti-fat filter and conducted outside by a
waste disposal tube (optional) and a conduit for
fumes. Important: avoid tight curves, as they will
diminish the aspiration capacity of the hood.
Attention: the tube is not supplied and must be
purchased separately.
The hole must have the same dimensions as the waste
disposal tube so as to obtain an optimal result.
Recirculating the air version
(filtering)
 The air is filtered through the active carbon filter
and brought back into the kitchen through the front
grill.
 Put the lever into position F.
 An original Electrolux filter must be requested
from your Electrolux technical assistance office
for this function. Så här använder du din fläkt

 The best results are obtained using low speed with normal cooking and a higher speed in the case of a
particular concentration of fumes.
We advise switching the hood on a few
minutes before starting to cook so as to obtain
a vacuum in the kitchen and to leave it working
at the end of cooking for another 15 minutes
until all fumes and odours have disappeared.
The commands are on the lower part of the
extractable drawer.
Illumination key  switches the lamp of the
hood on and off.
Motor speed key  switches the motor on and
off and is used to select one of the three
speeds.
Correct ventilation
A vacuum must be created in the kitchen for the
correct functioning of the hood.
It is important to keep the kitchen windows closed
and have a window open in an adjacent room.

37
Disconnect the hood from the power before any maintenance work, removing the plug or the fuse.
Clean the filter often. Deposits of fat on the filter and the sides of the evacuation conduit are a fire danger
if, for example, a ring has been forgotten and inadvertently left on (or in the case of other kinds of overheating).

Cleaning the hood
· Clean the exterior of the hood with a wet cloth and
a neutral detergent.
· Never use cleaning products that contain corrosive
or abrasive agents or inflammable substances.
· Avoid introducing sharp objects into the protective
grill of the motor.
· Clean the exterior of the hood with a neutral
detergent. Never use abrasive sponges and cleaning
products containing soda or corrosive powder.
· Clean the front panel and the filter grill when
necessary with a wet cloth and a neutral detergent.
· It is important to keep the apparatus clean and change
the filters, conforming to the intervals advised.
Otherwise deposits of fat on the filter and the sides
of the evacuation conduit will constitute a fire risk.
Grease filter
 The purpose of the grease filter is to capture the
particles of fat that are created during the cooking
of food and MUST always be used, both whether
the hood is used in the aspiration version or the
recirculating (filtering) version.
Attention: the metal filter must be disassembled and
cleaned every 4 weeks. Clean the filter with a detergent
immersing it in hot water or putting it in the dishwasher.
Opening the grill. Fig. 4.
Open the stop and lower the filter drawer.
Remove the whole of the filter drawer by pulling
the right side forward and unhooking it.
Remove filter holder B.
Washing by hand
Soak the anti-fat filters in hot water with a little
liquid detergent for about an hour. Rinse with
abundant hot water. Repeat the operation if
necessary. Wait until the filters are dry before
mounting them again.
Washing in the dishwasher
Put the anti-fat filters in the dishwasher. Choose
the most powerful programme and the highest
temperature (minimum 65º). Repeat the operation.
Wait until the filters are dry before mounting them
again. Washing in the dishwasher can fade the
metal anti-fat filter without having any influence
on its efficiency.
 Clean the interior space of the filter with a hot
detergent solution (never use abrasive sponges
and cleaning products containing soda or
corrosive powders).
Attention
Inadequate cleaning and failure to change the
filters could lead to the risk of fire. We
recommend, therefore, keeping strictly to the
instructions shown.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility for any
eventual inconvenience, damage or fire caused by
the apparatus due to the inobservance of the safety
instructions shown in this manual.
