Frequently Asked Questions - DVE5960HW AEG-ELECTROLUX

What is the minimum distance between the hood and the cooktop?

The minimum distance is 50 cm for electric cooktops and 65 cm for gas or mixed cooktops. If the cooking device instructions specify a greater distance, that must be respected.

How to clean the metal grease filter?

The metal grease filter must be cleaned once a month with non-aggressive detergents, by hand or in the dishwasher at low temperature and short cycle. Washing in the dishwasher may cause discoloration but does not affect filtering performance.

When should the active carbon filter be replaced?

The washable active carbon filter must be replaced at most every 4 months, depending on frequency of use and regularity of grease filter cleaning. It cannot be cleaned or regenerated.

What to do if the hood lights no longer turn on?

First unplug the appliance from the electrical supply. Make sure the lights are cool, then replace the defective bulb with a LED 3W - E14 maximum bulb (ILCOS D reference position '1d').

Can I use the hood without the grease filter?

No, never use the hood without the grate (filter) properly installed. This could damage the motor and pose a fire risk.

How to electrically connect the hood?

The voltage must match that indicated on the rating plate. If a plug is present, plug it into a compliant wall socket accessible after installation. Otherwise, use a standardized circuit breaker to allow complete disconnection. Do not connect before installation is complete.

What cleaning products to use for the hood exterior?

Use a damp cloth with a neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products, alcohol, or solvents. Regular cleaning (at least once a month) is recommended.

Can the hood be used with a gas cooktop?

Yes, but maintain a minimum distance of 65 cm between the hood and the cooking surface. Ensure sufficient room ventilation when the hood is used with gas appliances.

Is it safe to flambé food under the hood?

No, it is strictly prohibited to flambé food under the hood. Using open flames can damage filters and cause a fire.

How to maintain the hood motor?

The motor does not require special maintenance, but it is essential to clean the filters regularly (grease and carbon) according to instructions. Neglected maintenance can damage the motor and void the warranty.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect hood from the mains by removing the plug or disconnecting the mains electrical supply. Always wear work gloves for all installation and maintenance operations. This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. The premises where the appliance is installed must be sufficiently ventilated, when the kitchen hood is used together with other gas combustion devices or other fuels. The hood must be regularly cleaned on both the inside and outside (AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH). This must be completed in accordance with

the maintenance instructions provided in this manual. Failure to follow the instructions provided in this user guide regarding the cleaning of the hood and filters will lead to the risk of fires. The flaming of foods beneath the hood itself is severely prohibited.

The use of exposed flames is detrimental to the filters and may cause a fire risk, and must therefore be avoided in all circumstances.

Any frying must be done with care in order to make sure that the oil does not overheat and ignite.

CAUTION: Accessible parts of the hood may become hot when used with cooking appliances.

For lamp replacement use only lamp type indicated in the Maintenance/Replacing lamps section of this manual.

WARNING! Do not connect the appliance to the mains until the installation is fully complete.

When connecting the hood to the electrical network, only certified electrical adaptors are allowed and not power strips.

1.SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

With regards to the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging it is important to closely follow the regulations provided by the local authorities.

The ducting system for this appliance must not be connected to any existing ventilation system which is being used for any other purpose such as discharging exhaust fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

Do not use or leave the hood without the lamp correctly mounted due to the possible risk of electric shocks.

Never use the hood without effectively mounted grids.

The hood must NEVER be used as a support surface unless specifically indicated.

Use only the fixing screws supplied with the product for installation or, if not supplied, purchase the correct screws type.

Use the correct length for the screws which are identified in the Installation Guide.

In case of doubt, consult an authorised service assistance centre or similar qualified person.

Warning! Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.

2.USE

The hood serves to aspirate the fumes and vapors resulting from cooking.

The attached installation manual indicates the version to be used depending on the model you have, the suction version with

external evacuation or filtering with

internal recirculation

3. INSTALLATION

The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-current category III in accordance with installation instructions.

Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

⚠ Warning! Power cable replacement must be undertaken by the authorised service assistance centre or similar qualified person.

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 Charcoal filter - 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.
