For the installer When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a 120mm diameter hose (HE 3160: Ø 120-110mm). 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 700 mm coal and oil cookers 800 mm min. The national standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum depression of 0. 04 bar in such rooms. The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or combustion gas ducts. [. . . ] With this micro-switch, the appliance may be automatically switched on and off by opening and closing the pull-out panel, but only if the fan speed has already been set and the light button is turned to I. 40 Maintenance and care The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any maintenance work. Never insert pointed objects in the motors protective grid. Wash the outside surfaces using a delicate detergent solution. Never use caustic detergents or abrasive brushes or powders. Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill using a damp cloth and delicate detergents. It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard. Metal grease filter The purpose of the grease filters is to aspirate grease particles which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the external evacuation or internal recycling function. Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks. Open the metal grease filter To remove the grease filters, first pull the handles upwards, then extract the filter outwards. Hand washing Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a greaseloosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Dishwasher Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select most powerful washing programme and highest temperature, at least 65°C. Refit the grease filters when they are dry. When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact on its performance. Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent solution only (never use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes). 41 Charcoal filter The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in the recirculation function. To do this you will need an original AEG charcoal filter (available from your local Service Force Centre). The charcoal filter cannot be washed nor regenerated. The charcoal filter should be replaced every 12 months under normal use. Replacement filters are available from your local Service Force Centre. Fitting the charcoal filter: Insert the charcoal filter into the lugs of the frame above using the 2 red lugs E to retain it, press the red lugs inwards, and insert the charcoal filter in the frame. Removing: Press both red lugs E upwards (towards the inside of the housing) and remove the charcoal filter downwards.
