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 warnings
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 cookers 500 mm
gas cookers 650 mm
coal and oil cookers 800 mm min.
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 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 cm
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.

large to avoid the
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.
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.

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.
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 connected to the coupling
ring. Fig. 1.
In order to obtain the best performance the hose
should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole.
Coupling ring
Filter Version
The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and
returned to the kitchen.
You will need an original ELECTROLUX
charcoal filter for the filtering function. (See
Special Accessories).
Fix the deflector using 4 screws Ø 3.5x9.5 mm.
Fig. 2.
Attention!
The deflector and the relative fixing screws are not
supplied when the upper section of the chimney has
no side slots.

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:

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.
To interrupt the Intensive speed, press
button A or B.
H - Light OFF
I - Light ON
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.
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 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.
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
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.
