Safety warnings  
for user  
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, causing a fire hazard.  
for kitchen unit installer  
When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a  
150mm diameter hose.  
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 more noisy.  
When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following  
minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring  
surfaces:  
electric cookers  
gas cookers  
500 mm  
650 mm  
coal and oil cookers  
700 mm min.  
The national decree 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 combus-  
tion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be  
connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning  
appliances are installed.  
49  
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.  
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.  
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 cm2 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 inspectors 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 cm2,  
which is to say a larger hole, could reduce the performance 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 only  
keep the hose as large as possible (preferably the same  
diameter as the outlet hole).  
Failure to observe these basic rules will drastically reduce the  
performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.

Introduction  
Extractor version  
The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and can also be used with  
a filtering function by fitting one activated carbon filter (special  
accessory).  
You will need original AEG carbon filter for this function (see Special  
Accessories).  
The air is discharged to the outside through a pipe, which must be  
fitted to connection flange A. Fig. 1.  
In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a  
diameter equal to the outlet hole.  
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 more noisy.

Filter Version  
The air is filtered through an activated charcoal filter and returned to  
the kitchen through the top grill of the outlet pipe.  
You will need an original AEG KF20 activated carbon filter for the  
filtering function. (See Special Accessories).  
Fix the deflector using 4 screws Ø 3,5x6.5 mm. Fig. 2.  
Optionally, the position of the chimney elements can be changed.  
When using the hood in the filter version the chimney must be fixed  
at the top, with the air outlet grill at the side.

The hood is fitted with one motor having several speed. Turn the  
hood on a few minutes before you start cooking then you will get an  
underpressure in the kitchen. It should be left on after cooking for  
about 15 minutes or until all odours have disappeared. The control  
switches are located on the units front panel:

Maintenance and care  
The hood must always be disconnected from the mains power  
supply before beginning any maintenance work.  
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  
First, push the metal grease filter stop backwards, then extract the  
filter, pulling downwards. Fig. 3.  
Hand washing  
Soak grease filters for about one  
hour in hot water with a grease-  
loosening cleaner, then rinse off  
thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the  
process if necessary. Refit the  
grease filters when it are dry.  
Dishwasher machine  
Place grease filters in dish washer.  
Select most powerful washing  
programme and highest temperature,  
at least 65°C. Repeat the process.  
Refit the grease filters when it are  
dry.  
Bild 3  
When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight  
discoloration 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).  
53  
Carbon filter  
The carbon filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in  
its filtering function.  
To do this you will need an original AEG activated carbon filter (see  
special accessories).  
Cleaning/replacing the carbon filter  
Unlike other carbon filters, the LONGLIFE carbon filter can be  
cleaned and reactivated. At normal use the filter should be cleaned  
every second month. The best way to clean the filter is in the  
dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the highest tempera-  
ture (65º C). Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets  
stuck on the filter and later causes bad odours. To reactivate the  
carbon, the filter should be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a  
temperature of maximum 100º C.  
After approximately three years of use, the carbon filter should be  
replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity will be  
reduced.  
Mounting  
Remove the frame b which supports the filter c by unscrewing it  
from the hood a, Fig. 4.  
Insert the coal mattress inside the frame and put all parts back in  
their place.  
To dismount proceed in reverse order.  
Always specify the hood model code number and serial number  
when ordering replacement filters. This information is shown on the  
registration plate located on the inside of the unit.  
The activated carbon filter can be ordered from the AEG technical  
assistance service.

Warning  
Failure to observe the instructions on cleaning the unit and  
changing the filters will cause a fire hazard. You are therefore  
strongly recommended to follow these instructions.  
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the  
motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or  
failure to observe the above safety recommendations.  
Changing the light bulb  
Disconnect the cooker hood from the main supply.  
Remove the lamp cover, use a screw driver as a lever. Fig. 5.  
Replace the old bulb with a new one of the same type.  
Remount the lamp cover.  
If the light does not come on, make sure the bulb has been inserted  
in correctly before contacting the technical assistance service.

Electrical connection  
Safety warnings for the electrician  
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.  
This disconnector may be for example a switch, fuses (plug fuses must  
be removed from the fuse box, fault current switches and remote switches  
with a distance of over 3 mm between contacts.  
The manufacture declines all responsibility for malfunctions resulting from  
failure to comply with the above instructions.  
If the power socket is applied directly above the hood this gives two  
advantages:  
1. the socket is not visible.  
2. the appliance can be disconnected at need merely be removing the  
plug.  
Electrical connection  
220-240 V by means of fixed power cable with plug.  
(Fixed connection of the appliance must only be carried out by an au-  
thorised electrician.)
