User manual AEG-ELECTROLUX EFC9860X

[. . . ] The model you have selected is a decorative suction cooker hood which can also work as filtering hood. A SUCTION HOOD extracts air, fumes and vapours from the inside environment and then expels them outside. It is not necessary to use carbon filters for purifying. A FILTERING HOOD extracts air, fumes and vapours from the inside environment, purifies them by means of carbon filters and then emits the purified air into the same environment. [. . . ] The hood is not proper for the use of children and people with reduced mental, physical and sensorial capacities unless they have been trained on purpose by the person responsible for their security. Children should be supervised to guarantee that they do not play with the hood. Not to cook "flambé" dishes, avoid flames directly underneath the hood; to avoid leaving on any hot plates which generate strong free flames underneath the hood; to avoid any strong flames being issued from under saucepans at the sides; when frying, not to allow oil to splash or overheat in the pan, as this is a fire risk; before any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect the hood from the main supply, by means of the main switch or the bipolar switch or by removing the plug; if other gas equipment or equipment which consumes oxygen from the environment is used, ventilation must be sufficient. For safe ventilation, maximum depression in the room should not exceed 4 Pa (0, 04 mbar) and there must be a hole on the outside facing wall (suitably positioned and dimensioned); never use the hood without the grease filters; keep the grease filters clean, taking into account the recommended cleaning suggestions; replace the carbon filters (if the hood is used as a filtering hood), as indicated; turn on the hood motor before you start cooking; turn off the hood motor about 10 minutes after you have finished cooking; do not use the hood to suction gas, fumes, vapours or other substances different from the normal fumes in the kitchen. 9 you see the 2 different kinds of controls: FIG. 9a: soft touch control with display; see par. 9b: soft touch control with led points and push buttons screenprinted on s/steel. 9a) The activated functions are listed as follows: LIGHTS: to switch the lights on or off; (pressure inf. To 1 second); MOTOR OFF: turn the motor off; TIMER: if pressed when the hood is already functioning with one of the pre-established speeds, timing is activated, that is a count down of 15 minutes, after which the motor stops. During this time the display indicates the speed number and the point led flashes; reduces the speed of the motor; increases the speed of the motor; INTENSIVE SPEED: the intensive speed is the highest motor speed. It is automatically excluded after 5 minutes and the hood goes back rd to the 2 speed. Only in case of filtering hood (flashing C letter) carbon filters should be replaced or regenerated. 2 AUTOMATIC CONTROL OF GREASE AND CARBON FILTERS The electronic controls with display allow automatic control of the grease filters and the carbon filters (only when the hood is used in the filtering version), so that the user does not have to remember when maintenance was last carried out. When the metallic grease filters have to be cleaned, the letter F on the display will flash. When the carbon filters have to be replaced, the letter C on the display will flash. It is possible to consult the electronic system concerning how clean the grease filters are and how worn the carbon filters are, as follows: stop the motor and . To find out how clean the fat filters are, press the O and - buttons at the same time. On the display, a number between 0 and 9 will appear, the smaller the number, the dirtier the filter is; . 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. TO PUT THE GREASE AND CARBON FILTERS CONTROL BACK TO ZERO To put the grease filter counter back to zero you must: · stop the motor; · Press the timer push button twice in succession, until you hear the acoustic signal. to confirm reset the led point stops flashing. [. . . ] After 4 years the filter looses its effectiveness and must be completely replaced (it is not possible to add special carbon) 8. To ensure correct ventilation and air interchange in the kitchen, national and international regulations exist, which should be respected. Always replace the lamps with lamps which have the same electrical characteristics (see TECHNICAL DATA). Before replacing the lamps, make sure that they are cold and that power has been completely turned off. [. . . ]
