Frequently Asked Questions - DPE5660B AEG

How to install the AEG DPE5660B hood?

Installation must be carried out by a qualified professional. Fix the hood to the wall or under a cabinet at a height of 65-75 cm above the hob. Connect the exhaust duct (diameter 150 mm) or install a charcoal filter for recirculation mode.

How to clean the grease filters?

The metal filters can be washed in a dishwasher at max 65°C or by hand with hot water and detergent. Let them dry completely before putting them back.

When to replace the charcoal filter?

The charcoal filter should be replaced every 3 to 6 months depending on usage, or when efficiency decreases. It is not washable.

How to change the LED bulb?

Unplug the appliance. Open the lighting cover, remove the defective bulb by turning, and insert a new LED G4 bulb (max 2W). Close and plug back in.

The hood is noisy, is that normal?

A noise level of up to 65 dB(A) is normal at maximum speed. If the noise is abnormal, check that the filters are clean and the duct is not blocked.

How to adjust the extraction speed?

Use the buttons on the control panel to select the speed (usually 3 levels). Higher speed for strong odors, lower for quiet operation.

Can I use the hood without an exhaust duct?

Yes, in recirculation mode. Install a charcoal filter (not supplied) and direct the air into the room. In this case, the charcoal filter must be changed regularly.

What to do if the hood does not turn on?

First check the power supply (fuse, circuit breaker). Make sure the plug is properly connected. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

How to maintain the stainless steel surface?

Clean with a soft cloth and a special stainless steel cleaner or soapy water. Avoid abrasive sponges that scratch the surface.
