User manual AEG-ELECTROLUX EFC90531X

[. . . ] Carbon filters are available separately and can be purchased as optional accessories (see OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES). 1) Check that the minimum distances between the lower part of the cooker hood and the upper part of the cooker is as given in Fig. 2: 600 mm if electric cooker (we advice a minimum distance of 700 - 800 mm) 700 mm if gas cooker (we advise a minimum disance of 700 - 800 mm) WARNING!If the user decides to install the hood at lower distances, the manufacturer declines any responsibility for eventual damages caused by the hood due to strong heat or damages to property or persons etc. [. . . ] Check that the minimum distance between the bottom of the hood and the upper part of the hob is in conformity with indications in par. Using a drill suitable for building materials, make the fixing holes and insert plugs so that they are flush with the ceiling; · Fix the upper chimney to the support structure FIG. 10 , by means of 2 screws; · Insert the lower chimney to the exterior of the upper chimney, blocking it by strong tape in a way that the chimney cannot possibly fall FIG. 10; · Insert the cooker hood in the support frame and screw it at the established height. If the hood is not properly aligned, after loosening the 4 screws on the ceiling, it can be rotated in the longitudinal holes: finally tighten the screws; · Push down the lower part of the chimney with extreme caution so that no scratches can be produced on the upper chimney. We strongly advises against the use of reducers or pipes with different diameter to the hood outlet pipe, and pipes made of flexible aluminium because performance is diminished and noise level increased. The end part of the pipe, on the outside of the hole on the wall, must be of such a shape to avoid rain, gusts of wind or other foreign bodies getting into the pipe. Should there be any doubt, contact anyone specialising in the installation of gas or ventilation system. 1 WARNING The electrical connection can only be carried out by qualified professional personnel, using standard material and state of the art installation methods. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for installations carried out by unskilled persons and for installations which are not in conformity with the standard norms concerning electrical safety (both concerning methods and materials). 2 ELECTRICAL TECHNICAL DATA The electrical technical data are visible inside the hood after the removal of the grease filters. To find out how worn the carbon filters are, press the buttons O and +. On the display, a number between 0 and 9 will appear, the smaller the number, the more worn the filter is. Push the push-buttons 0 (zero) and T (timer) at the same time for a few seconds. 4 SETTING THE SUCTION /FILTERING USE OF THE HOOD The hood is delivered standard for suction use (only with flashing F letter). ATTENTION: The light push button does not switch on/off the lights until you hear acoustic signal. If you wish to use the hood in the filtering version, proceed as follows: · Disconnect hood from electricity and then reconnect this to electricity; · During this time press the light push button 3 times. ATTENTION: during the suction/filtering setting phase no function can be activated. 1 CLEANING OF GREASE FILTERS The metallic grease filters are positioned on the bottom of the hood and are used to contain any grease which is normally emitted in cooking fumes, thereby impeding the deterioration of the motor. For washing by hand, use hot water and soap; this can be done by hand brushing vigorously several times and then rinsing under the tap. After washing, the grease filters should be dried and re-fitted correctly. In this paragraph guide lines are given, which should be complied with. [. . . ] The process of regeneration can cause a light change in the colour of the filter cassette. REGENERATION Humidity and grease particules reduce the performances of air delivery and for this reason the filter must be regenerated according to the time given in the instruction booklet. Put the filter- cassette on the grill of your oven and let it warm up for 1 hour at 230°C. Only after this time the filter can be remounted and your hood can work for other 4 months. [. . . ]
