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 150mm diameter hose.
Should there already be a pipe of diameter 125 mm that ducts to the outside through
the walls or roof, it is possible to use the 150/125 mm reduction flange provided. In
this case the hood will be slightly noisier.
• When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following minimum
distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces:
electric cookers600 mm
gas cookers650 mm
coal and oil cookers700 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 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-
56
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
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.
— 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 (special accessory).
• Y ou will need an original AEG charcoal filter for this function (Available from your local
AEG Service Force Centre).
Extractor version
• The air is discharged to the outside through a
pipe, which must be fitted to connection flange
A. Fig. 1.
• In order to obtain the best performance the
hose should have a diameter equal to the outlet
hole.
For the extractor version this pipe must have a
diameter of 150 mm.
Should there already be a pipe of diameter
125 mm that ducts to the outside through the
walls or roof, it is possible to use the 150/125
mm reduction flange provided. In this case the
hood will be slightly noisier.
Recirculation Version
Fig. 1
A
• The air is filtered through an activated charcoal filter and returned to the kitchen
through the top grill of the outlet pipe.
• Y ou will need an original AEG charcoal filter for the recirculation function. (Available
from your local Service Force Centre).
• Fix the deflector using 4 screws Ø 3.5x6.5 mm. Fig. 2.

Hood Operation
• 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 unit’s front panel:
A - Main switch, hood off.
B - Start and choice of motor speed 1-2-3-1-2.........
C - Indicates speed 1 (LED).
D - Indicates speed 2 and saturation of the grease filter (LED)
E - Indicates speed 3 and saturation of the charcoal filter (LED) (flashing LED)
F - Indicates Intensive speed (LED).
G - Intensive speed on/off. The Intensive speed runs for 5 minutes:
If the hood is on when the Intensive speed is activated, the hood reverts to
previous speed after 5 minutes.
If the hood is off when the Intensive speed is activated, the hood will be turned off
after 5 minutes.
T o interrupt the Intensive speed, press button A or B.
H - Light OFF
I- Light ON
ABCDEFGH I
Should the hood or the controls fail to operate: disconnect the power supply for at least 5
seconds, then turn the hood back on again.
Correct ventilation
If the cooker hood is to work correctly there must be an under pressure in the kitchen.
It is important to keep the kitchen windows closed and have a window in an adjacent
room open.
Important
This is not applicable for recirculation. Great care must be taken if the hood is used at
the same time as a burner or fireplace (e.g. gas, diesel, coal or wood heaters, water
heaters, etc.), as the hood will expel air which is required by these other appliances.
In this situation, ensure that a window is open. The negative pressure in the room
must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the
cooker hood.

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.
T o 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 working 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 working hours.
Resetting the saturation indicator
After cleaning or replacing the filters, press button A for 3 seconds until the grease filter
LED D or the charcoal filter LED E stops flashing.
