Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, check that
the voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds to the
mains power supply available. Appliances fitted with a plug can
be connected to any standard power socket within easy access.
Should it be necessary to provide a fixed connection, the hood
must only be installed by an electrician authorised by the local
electricity board. When installing, an omnipolar disconnector
with a distance of at least 3 mm between contacts must be
provided. Fixed connection of the appliance must only be carried
out by an authorised electrician.

Electrical Requirements
Any permanent electrical installation must comply with the latest
I.E.E. Regulations and local Electricity Board regulations. For
your own safety this should be undertaken by a qualified electrician
e.g. your local Electricity Board, or a contractor who is on the roll
of the National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation
Contracting (NICEIC) or a suitably competent person.
Electrical Connection
Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains
voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate inside the
cooker hood.
This appliance is fitted with a 2 core mains cable and must be
permanently connected to the electricity supply via a double-pole
switch having 3mm minimum contact gap on each pole. A
Switched Fuse Connection Unit to BS1363 Part 4, fitted with a 5
Amp time delay fuse, is a recommended mains supply connection
accessory to ensure compliance with the Safety Requirements
applicable to fixed wiring instructions.
This appliance conforms to BS 800: 1988 and EEC
Directive No. 78 308 regarding suppression of radio and television
interference.

Safety warnings
for kitchen unit
installer
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.
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.
It is advisable to apply for authorization from the relevant controlling authority when connecting the outlet to an unused chimney
flue or combustion gas duct.
The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations laid
down by the relevant authorities.
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.
The local decree on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum
depression of 0.04 mbar in such rooms.
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
2
large to avoid the possibility of negative
pressure 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 out fuel burning appliances is air
inlet should be same size as extractor outlet hole, an aperture
of 500-600 cm
2
, which is to say a larger hole, could reduce the
performance of the extractor hood.
If the hood is used in its filtering version (carbon filter), 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
minimum number of bends in the outlet hose
Install hoses with an acute angle, always following a gentle
curve only
hose as large as possible (100 mm Ø).
Failure to observe these basic rules will drastically reduce the
performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.
4
When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
100mm diameter hose.
If the fumes must be forced out through the wall, you must obtain
a MKZ sizable wall exhaust pipe (with external exhaust and air
intake), E-Nr.- 610 899 004 (Ø 120 mm) which is one of our
optional parts.
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 cookers700 mm
The hood can be installed above these heights but for optimum
performance it should be installed at the distance quoted for the
appropriate heat source.
General details
The hood is supplied as a ducted version, but may also be used
in recirculation mode by inserting a charcoal filter (Special
accessories).
The air is ducted out through a pipe which is connected to the
outlet hole A (fig. 1) by means of a coupling flange B.
To connect the hood to a wall box, you use hoses and wall boxes
as offered on the AEG price list as optional extras.

Filter version
Cooking vapours are cleaned by the charcoal filter (Special
accessories) and ducted back into the kitchen.
The AEG original charcoal filter is necessary for the recirculating
mode (see paragraph Special accessories).
For the recirculating mode proceed as follows:
a) Remove the grid by turning knob A (fig. 2).
b) Position the filter (fig. 3) and rotate clockwise until it stops.
In this mode air will be expelled through an exhaust pipe with
an internal diameter of 100 mm on the top of the cupboard.
c) Replace the grid.
