Electrolux U24211 EFT 635 Operating And Installation Instructions

Safety warnings

For the installer

• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must
be fitted with a 125mm diameter hose.
Attention: The hose is not supplied and must
be purchased separately.
• 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
coal and oil cookers
• The national Standard on fuel-burning systems
specifies a maximum depression of 0.04 mbar
in such rooms.
• The air outlet must not be connected to
chimney flues or combustion gas ducts. The air
outlet must under no circumstances be
connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in
which fuel-burning appliances are installed.
• 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 approxi-
mately 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
approximately 500-600 cm
possibility of a depression being created during
operation of the hood.
• If you have any doubts, contact the relevant
controlling authority or building inspector's
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 cm
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,
600 mm
650 mm

large to avoid the

,
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.
— keep the hose as large as possible
(preferably the same diameter as the
outlet hole).
• Failure to observe these basic instructions will
drastically reduce the performance and increase
the noise levels of the extractor hood.

For the user

• The cooker hood is designed to extract
unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will
not extract steam.
• 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, 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.
