Congratulations to your new Cooker Hood
Thank you for your choice of an Electrolux product. We are convinced that you will have great use and pleasure from your new cooker hood.
Before you use the cooker hood we recommend that you read through the whole user manual giving a direct description of the cooker hood and its functions.
To avoid the risks, that are always present when you use a product driven by electricity, it is important that the cooker hood is installed correctly and that you read the safety instructions carefully to avoid misuse and hazard.
Save the instruction manual and keep it available at use of the cooker hood
Safety instructions
At installation and service
The cooker hood is made for normal house­holds with normal cooking. If it is used for other purposes there is a risk of damage which is not covered by the warranty.
All eventual electric installation has to be carried out by a qualified electrician. The installation of the hood should be made by a person with enough knowledge. Installation made otherwise could lead to loss of performance and even injuries and / or damage on properties.
The hood cannot be connected to flues of other appliances that run on energy sources other than electricity. Please, keep to the provisions of official directives regarding the question of fumes discharge.
When the hood is used at the same time of other appliances that run on energy sources other than electricity, provision must be made for an adequate supply of air.
When installed, the hood must be not less than 60 cm. above electric burners or 75 cm. above gas or mixed-fuel burners. (Fig. 2).
At use of cooker hood
No food must be cooked flambé underneath the hood.
The use of an unprotected flame is danger­ous for the filters and could cause fires.
Never leave the deep-frying or frying pan over a cooker/hob. The oil contained in the pan may spontaneously ignite through overheating.
Observe the filter change or cleaning inter­vals. Failure to observe these intervals may cause the risk of fire through fat deposition.
Note! If a fire starts; Switch of the cooker hood and the heating zone; Cover the fire ,
Never use water.
At disposal
Help to avoid damages even when the cooker hood should be disposed. Discon­nect the power plug and cut the power cord at hood inlet. Check with the authorities for information of how to proceed for disposal.
The power cord should be drawn so that there is no risk of damage. Hazard!

Using the hood
Speed regulation
The hood has a variable speed motor. For the best performance, we recommend using the highest speed in particular cases of strong odour and vapour concentration. We recommend starting up the hood a few minutes before cooking and keeping it running until all the odours have been eliminated.
Work light
The hood has two lamps 40W (E14). Switch lamps ON and OFF with the left slide switch.
Correct ventilation
To have the cooker hood working correctly the windows in the kitchen should be closed. In stead a window in an adjacent room should be open.
Important to know
If the hood is run at the same time as a burner or fireplace that depend on ambient air (for example gas, Diesel, coal or wood heaters, water heaters, etc.) be careful, because the hood, when it exhausts the air, removes the ambient air required by the burner or fireplace for combustion.
Not valid if the cooker hood is used in recirculation mode.

Maintenance
Before performing any maintenance operation, disconnect the hood from the electricity.
Grease filter - Fig. 6
This serves to hold the grease particles in sus­pension. The metal filter should be washed every month with warm soapy water or, if possible, in the dishwasher (65°C). Remove the filter:
Push the spring handle towards the back, then extract the filter downwards.
Leave to dry before refitting it.
Carbon filter - Fig. 7
This filter dissolves cooking odours. It should be changed every 6-8 months in normal use. Ask the technical assistance service or manufacturing company for a new one. The carbon filter must never be washed.
Mounting and dismounting of the carbon filter:
a. Disconnect the hood from the electricity. b.Remove the grease filter. c. To install the filters, place one filter on each
side so that they cover the grates protecting the rotor on the motor. Then turn the center handle for the filters in the clockwise direction.
d.To dismount the carbon filters (covering the
grates protecting the rotor on the motor) for replacement, turn the central handle in the counter-clockwise direction until the filters are unlocked.
e. Remove the grease filter.

Attention
Failure to observe the rules for cleaning the appliance and changing and cleaning the filters may cause fires. Therefore, we recommend observing these instructions.
