Safety warnings – For the installer

When installing the cooker hood, make sure you adhere to

the minimum and maximum distances from the cooker hood

base to the hob surface (as per table on following page).

Installation

NOTE: The fan housing exhaust outlet is 163mm in

diameter. Use duct transition or ﬂexible pipe supplied

with the rangehood as a reducer if using 150mm

optional ducting accessories.

NOTE: For ducted mode, we recommend extending ﬂue

pipe through the roof to external “china hat” to vent

exhaust externally. We do not recommend venting

into ceiling cavity.

NOTE: To ensure optimum performance of the rangehood,

the use of rigid ducting is recommended. The use

of bends should be avoided. Rigid ﬂexible ducting

is suitable, although loose ﬂexible ducting is

unacceptable. All ducting must be ﬁre retardant.

Installation of telescopic exhaust covers

Separate the inner and outer exhaust covers, and carefully

remove the protective coating from both. Carefully

reassemble the inner and outer exhaust covers sections by

sliding the inner into the outer exhaust cover. Carefully lower

the assembled inner and outer exhaust covers onto the

top of the cooker hood body, and insert the exhaust cover

intotherangehoodbodyapproximately5mm.Fixinner

(top) exhaust cover to the mounting bracket with screws

supplied. Ensure that the inner (top) section is extended.

important

Care must be taken to ensure the screws are not cross

threadedwhenattachingtheouteruecover.

If installed in recirculating mode, insert the carbon ﬁlter.

To complete the rangehood installation, replace the ﬁlter.

Installation sequence

1 Using a spirit level mark a vertical centre line on the wall

where the hood is to be positioned, and a horizontal line

at the hood base position (refer diagram bottom left).

NOTE: The height of the underside of the hood body must

be a minimum of 550mm above an electric cooktop

& gas cook top and a maximum height of 750mm

(refer to table).

* I

f the instructions of the hob specify a greater distance than the minimum

above, then that shall be the minimum height for installation.

above the hood base using the hood base as the

reference point.

3 Install wall and ceiling mounting with suitable screws

(to support a total weight of 30kg) to the wall at the

positions marked in diagram.

4 Remove the protective plastic ﬁlm from the hood body

and hang hood on the mounting points then secure at

the anti-tilt locations as indicated in diagram.

suitable screws. Attach the recirculating T-piece. Use

cable ties or suitable duct tape to secure the T-piece.

NOTE: When installed in recirculation mode, it is

recommended to use a carbon ﬁlter (included as

standard equipment with EFC9588X).

electrolux canopy rangehood maintenance and cleaning 7

caution

• Before maintenance or cleaning is carried out,

the rangehood should be disconnected from the

main power supply. Ensure that the rangehood is

switched off at the wall socket

and the plug removed.

• External surfaces are susceptible to scratches

and abrasions, so please follow the cleaning

instructions to ensure the best possible result is

achieved without damage.

Glass Surfaces

Glass surfaces are best cleaned immediately after soiling

using warm soapy water.

Use a dry soft cloth to remove any excessive moisture left

after cleaning.

Donotuseharshabrasivecleanersormetalscrapers

Stainless Steel Surface

Clean stainless steel surfaces using non-abrasive cleaning

products that are speciﬁcally for use on stainless steel.

To ensure best results also use an even pressure and follow

the grain of the stainless steel. Use of a soft cloth reduces

the risk of scratching. If the cloth is wet ensure that a dry

soft cloth is used to wipe down the surface again reducing

the risk of any surface rust appearing.

Control panel surface

The control panel can be cleaned using warm soapy water.

Ensure the cloth is well wrung before cleaning. Use a dry

soft cloth to remove any excess moisture left after cleaning.

Use the “lock” button before cleaning the control panel.

Cleaning grease lters

The ﬁlters can be cleaned by hand or dishwasher in warm

soapy water.

stains use a soft nylon brush to help

remove these stains. After cleaning

ensure that the ﬁlters are completely

dry before reﬁtting.

ofthesprayarm.Filtersshouldbe

washed separately to crockery and

other kitchen utensils. After cleaning

ensure that the ﬁlters are completely

dry before reﬁtting.

Changing the halogen lamps

Ensure lamp is cool before removing.

Usingasmallatbladescrewdriverremovetheinner

stainless steel ring to obtain access to the halogen globe.

When removing the inner ring, do so carefully, as the glass

lense could easily fall out of the inner ring. Remove the

halogen globe, whilst cool, and replace carefully with a

new globe.

The rangehood takes 2 x 20W, 12 volt halogen globes

important

When handling globes hold with a cloth or gloves to ensure

perspiration does not come into contact with a globe as this

can reduce the life of the globe.
