Safety information

These operating and installation instruc-

tions contain important information

which must be observed in order to en-

sure the safe and reliable operation of

the DMPL0140SW extractor hood.

Please store them in a safe place for

future reference. These operating in-

structions apply to several versions of

the appliance. They may contain de-

scriptions of certain features not found

on your model. The DMPL0140SW ex-

tractor hood must not be used by per-

sons (incl. children) with impaired physi-

cal or mental capabilities or persons

who lack experience and/or knowledge

of how to use it. Children must be super-

vised to ensure that they do not play

with the appliance.

Intended use

The DMPL0140SW extractor hood may

only be used to extract kitchen vapours

from cooking appliances in private

households. Any other use will be

deemed to be improper. Improper use of

the hood may pose a danger to persons

and objects.

Installation

The device may only be installed and

connected by an authorised technician

observing all relevant regulations of the

power supply companies and the build-

ing regulations of the federal states.

During installation, observe the relevant

instructions! Damaged appliances may

not be put into operation. Defective parts

must be replaced with genuine ELEC-

TROLUX parts. Repairs should only be

carried out by authorised technical staff.

Danger of intoxication!

If the DMPL0140SW extractor hood is

operated in extraction mode at the same

time as other room-air-dependent fire

appliances (e.g., wood, gas, oil or coal-

fired appliances) in the same room, le-

thal combustion gases may be directed

back into the room due to the resulting

negative pressure. For this reason, you

must ensure a sufficient air supply at all

times! The negative pressure in the

room must not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).

Fire hazard!

The DMPL0140SW extractor hood must

never be operated without the grease

filter and must not be left unattended.

Filters that are overfilled with grease can

pose a fire hazard! Never leave the ex-

tractor hood unattended when deep-

frying! Remember to clean out the filters

regularly. The use of gas cookers and

flambéing are forbidden with the extrac-

tor hood.

Preparing for use

The extractor hood model complies with

the relevant safety regulations for

kitchen appliances in private house-

holds. The requirements regarding the

installation location are described in the

user documentation supplied with the

appliance. If you have any doubts as to

whether your intended installation loca-

tion meets the requirements, please

contact our service department.

Transport, unpacking, installation

Condensation may occur if the appli-

ance is brought into the installation site

from a cold environment. Please wait

until the appliance has adjusted to the

temperature and is completely dry be-

fore operating it. The acclimatization

period depends on the temperature dif-

ference and the type and design of the

appliance. However, it should be at least

12 hours.

Connecting the power supply

Check that the rated voltage indicated

on the appliance matches the mains

voltage in your area. Connection to the

incorrect voltage will damage or destroy

the appliance.

Before switching on the appliance,

check that all cables and lines are prop-

erly fitted and undamaged. Make sure in

particular that the cables are not kinked,

en

11

that they are not pulled too tightly

around corners and that no objects are

resting on them. Also make sure that all

plug connections are securely inserted.

Faulty shielding or wiring poses a health

hazard (electric shock) and can destroy

other appliances. Appliances with mains

plugs are fitted with a safety-tested

mains cable for the respective country of

use and may only be connected to a

correctly earthed safety socket. Other-

wise, there is a risk of electric shock.

Make sure that the socket on the appli-

ance or the domestic safety socket is

easily accessible so that the mains ca-

ble can be unplugged from the socket in

an emergency or during servicing and

maintenance work.

Risk of electric shock!

Do not clean the hood with a steam

cleaner or water pressure cleaner. The

hood must be disconnected from the

power supply prior to cleaning.

Design

From an aesthetic perspective, the ex-

tractor hood may differ from the dia-

grams in these operating instructions.

However, the operating instructions,

maintenance, cleaning and installation

are always the same.

General method

of operation

The new DMPL0140SW recess ventila-

tor from ELECTROLUX features a va-

pour opening located in the centre be-

tween the oven's two hot plates.

Below the vapour opening, the top of

which is covered by a permeable grid, is

an extraction duct, which is connected to

an exhaust fan via an exhaust air chan-

nel system, which extracts the vapours

which arise during cooking through the

grid away from the hot plate.

The model offers effective extraction

with simple handling and is available in

the "internal motor exhaust air", "internal

motor recirculating air" and "external

motor" fan versions.

Operation

The hood is operated via touch controls

(some pressure required). The opening

of the vent (extraction opening) is con-

trolled manually. When the vent is

moved downwards, the electronics are

connected to the electricity supply. The

integrated electromagnet is activated

and keeps the vent down.

The indirect LED illumination is switched

on automatically.

The closing of the vent is controlled

electrically by pressing the vent symbol.

Once the vent is closed, the hood no

longer consumes any energy. (0 watt

standby)

A Setting 1

When this symbol is pressed, the fan

runs at 50%.

B Setting 2

When this symbol is pressed, the fan

runs at full speed.

C After-run

When this symbol is pressed, the after-

run is activated. The motor switches

from setting 2 back to setting

1 and switches off automatically after

15 minutes.

D Closing the vent

When this symbol is pressed, the elec-

tricity supply to the hood is disconnected

and the vent closes automatically.

E LED illumination

When the vent is opened, the LED illu-

mination switches on automatically. This

can be switched off at any time using a

separate switch.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the surfaces

Danger due to electric shock! Discon-

nect the extractor hood from the power

supply by pulling the plug out of the

socket or by switching off the fuse. Dur-

ing cleaning, make sure that no water

penetrates the device or comes into

contact with the electronic components.

Timely cleaning of the surface saves the

later laborious removal of stubborn con-

tamination. Only use conventional deter-

gents or universal cleaning agents for

cleaning suitable for stainless steel/

aluminium. Never use abrasive cleaning

agents or steel wool. After cleaning the

hood, treat the stainless steel surfaces

with a stainless steel care product.

These grease deposits occur for physi-

cal reasons and are not due to a mal-

function of the hood. Please clean here

regularly to avoid severe soiling.

Note: Do not use alcohol (spirits) on

plastic surfaces, as dull spots

may result.

Metal filter

Removing the filter

Fire hazard! Grease residues decrease

the extractor’s performance and in-

crease the fire hazard. The metal filter

must be cleaned regularly to prevent a

fire hazard. The grease filters must be

cleaned twice a week.

Cleaning the grease filter

The metal filter is best cleaned in the

dishwasher or with a mild dishwashing

agent. The manufacturer accepts no

liability whatsoever for any discolour-

ation caused by the use of aggressive

dishwashing agents. Temperatures ex-

ceeding 55 degrees must be avoided in

all cases.

Caution: Do not use multiphase cleaning

agents. Do not clean the filter in an in-

dustrial washing machine. Cleaning with

aggressive agents such as petrol, ace-

tone, trichlorethylene, etc., will destroy

the filters!

Activated carbon filter

Regenerative activated carbon filters

The activated carbon filters are behind

the extraction grid and can be removed

by simply pulling them forwards.

The activated carbon filters can be re-

generated in a preheated oven (200°C);

the process takes 2 hours.

Note! Risk of burning!

• Do no regenerate the activated carbon

filters in a microwave oven.

• The oven's pyrolysis function must

never be used to regenerate the acti-

vated carbon filter.

• The activated carbon filters must be

cleaned with a damp cloth before their

regeneration.

The activated carbon filters must only be

taken out of the oven once they have

cooled down.

Regenerating the filters in the oven may

cause unpleasant smells in the oven!

The frequency at which the activated

carbon filter honeycomb needs to be

regenerated depends on the intensity of

the cooking. Nevertheless, the activated

carbon filters should always be regener-

ated every 2-3 months. Moreover, the

activated carbon filter must be cleaned

with a damp cloth every 2-3 months.
