manual abstract
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, resulting in a fire hazard. • The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. • Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. • WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is switched off before replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock. 30 Description of the appliance • The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and can also be used with a filtering function by fitting one charcoal filter. • You will need an original ELECTROLUX charcoal filter for this function (Available from your local ELECTROLUX Service Force Centre). Attention! Certain models are already equipped with charcoal filters. The charcoal filters are attached to one side of the polystyrene protection panels in the packaging and should be fitted into place prior to using the cooker hood in the recirculation version. 0 120mm Extractor version • In this version fumes are extracted to the outside via a hose connected to the coupling ring. Fig. I. • In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole. Recirculation Version • The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the kitchen through the top grill of the outlet pipe. • Fix the deflector using 2 screws 0 3,5x6.5 mm. Fig. 2. 31 Control Panel • Best results are obtained by using a low speed for normal conditions and a high speed when odours are more concentrated. Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking, you will then get an under pressure in the kitchen. The hood should be left on after cooking for about 15 minutes or until all the odours have disappeared. The control switches are located on the unit’s front panel: EFC 6410 EFC 9410 EFC 6405 EFC 9405 EFC 650 EFC 950 EFC 640 CH 1200 CH 900 CH 600 ON/OFF Light button Speed 2 button Speed I button Speed 3 button Correct ventilation If the cooker hood is to work correctly there must be an under pressure in the kitchen. It is important to keep the kitchen windows closed and have a window in an adjacent room open. 32 Maintenance and care • The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any maintenance work. Cleaning the hood Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products. Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s 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 grille 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. 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. Metal grease filters • The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease particles which form during cooking and they must always be used, either in the external extraction or internal recirculation function. Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks. Removing the metal grease filters • Push it towards the back of the unit and then pull it down and out.Fig. 3.
