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.
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 shock.
For the installer
When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
150mm 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 cookers650 mm
gas cookers750 mm
coal and oil cookers800 mm min.
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
47
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
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 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 inspectors 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.
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 with an already mounted carbon filter, ready for
use in the filtering version.
If you want to use the hood in the suction version, remove the carbon
filter.
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.
Fig. 1
Filter Version
A
The air is filtered through a charcoal
filter and returned to the kitchen.
You will need an original AEG charcoal
filter for the filtering function. (See
Special Accessories).
The deflector should be mounted on the
wall near the ceiling with two wall
dowels and 5x45 screws. Figure2.
Connect a tube to the exit hole of the
hood (A-Figure 1) long enough to reach
the deflector connection ring (B-Figure
2).

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 control switches are located on the units front
panel.
Light switch: this switch is used to turn the light fitted in the hood
on and off.
Extractor fan switch: used to turn the fan off
Push-button 1: used to set the fan to speed 1.
Push-button 2: used to set the fan to speed 2.
Push-button 3: used to set the fan to speed 3.

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
detergent.
Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products.
Never insert pointed objects in the motors 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 cooking 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 weeks.
Fig. 3
Removing the metal grease filter
Pull the handles downwards, then extract the filter. Fig. 3.
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 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).
51
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 AEG charcoal filter (available from
your local Service Force Centre).
