Electrolux EFC90468OW User Manual page 5

The hood is provided with a special power
cable ; if the cable is damaged, request a
new one from Technical Service.
The minimum distance between the
supporting surface for the cooking
equipment on the hob and the lowest part
of the range hood must be not less than
50cm from electric cookers and 65cm from
gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for
installation for the gas hob specify a greater
distance, this must be adhered to.
4. MAINTENANCE
ATTENTION! Before performing any
maintenance operation, isolate the hood
from the electrical supply by switching off at
the connector and removing the connector
fuse. Or if the appliance has been
connected through a plug and socket, then
the plug must be removed from the socket.
The cooker hood should be cleaned
regularly (at least with the same frequency
with which you carry out maintenance of the
fat filters) internally and externally. Clean
using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid
detergent. Do not use abrasive products.
DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!
Warning! Failure to carry out the basic
cleaning recommendations of the cooker
hood and replacement of the filters may
cause fire risks. Therefore, we recommend
observing 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.
4.1 Grease filter - The grease filter must
be cleaned once a month using non
aggressive detergents, either by hand or
in the dishwasher, which must be set to a
low temperature and a short cycle. When
washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter
may discolour slightly, but this does not
affect its filtering capacity.
4.2 Type 15 - NON-washable activated
charcoal filter - The saturation of the
charcoal filter occurs after more or less
prolonged use, depending on the type of
cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the
grease filter.
In any case it is necessary to replace the
cartridge at least every four mounths.
The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or
regenerated.
5. CONTROLS
The hood is fitted with a control panel with
aspiration speed selection control and a
light switch to control cooking area lights.

medium (4.), maximum (5.).
Use the high suction speed in cases
of concentrated kitchen vapours. It is
recommended that the cooker hood suction
is switched on for 5 minutes prior to cooking
and to leave in operation during cooking
and for another 15 minutes approximately
after terminating cooking.
6. LIGHTING
The hood is equipped with a lighting system
based on LED technology.
The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting,
a duration up to 10 times as long as the
traditional lamps and allow to save 90%
electrical energy.
Caution! Do not look directly into the
LED light.
For replacement, contact the technical
service.
