Safety warnings

For the installer

• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must

be fitted with a 150mm diameter hose.

Only for model EFC 9460 X / 942 120 705:

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 cookers 600 mm

gas cookers 750 mm

coal and oil cookers 800 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 approxi-

mately 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 approxi-

mately 500-600 cm

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

, which

is to say a larger hole, could reduce the perfor-

mance 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.

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.

Fig. 1

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 - for EFC 9415 only!

The deflector and the relative fixing screws

are not supplied when the upper section of the

chimney has no side slots.

Control Panel - EFC 9460

• 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:

• the light switch switches the hood lamp ON

and OFF;

• ON/OFF Extractor fan switch - Push-button

1: used to turn the fan off and 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.

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.
