The extractor uses energy-efficient LED lighting (7 W).

The noise level ranges from 40 dB (low speed) to 70 dB (intensive speed).

Can I install this extractor myself?

No, this extractor requires professional installation due to its built-in nature.

What is the maximum extraction power?

No, the ducting hose is not included.

Troubleshooting

Extractor fan doesn't turn on.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Efficiently removes smoke, steam, and odors from the kitchen.
  • Offers a sleek, integrated design that complements modern kitchen aesthetics.
  • Provides flexible installation options (ducted or recirculating).
  • Features multiple speed settings to suit different cooking requirements.
  • Includes energy-efficient LED lighting for improved cooktop visibility.
  • Easy to clean and maintain with washable filters.

Cons

  • Requires professional installation.
  • Recirculating mode's effectiveness depends on the use of carbon filters (not included).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Professional Installation: The AEG DDE5980G requires professional installation due to its built-in design. Consult a qualified installer for proper placement, electrical connections, and ducting.
  2. Ducting or Recirculation: Decide between ducted (venting outside) or recirculating (using carbon filters) installation. Ducting provides superior performance but requires access to an exterior vent. Recirculation is simpler but requires filter replacement.
  3. Electrical Connection: Ensure the unit is connected to a 220-240 V, 50-60 Hz power supply.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with most standard kitchen countertops, but verify dimensions and cut-out requirements.
  • Suitable for both ducted and recirculating installations.

Care:

  • Cleaning Filters: Wash the aluminum grease filters regularly (every 2-4 weeks) in the dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water. Allow them to dry completely before re-installing.
  • Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel and glass surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Filter Replacement (Recirculating): If using the recirculating mode, replace the carbon filters as per the manufacturer's instructions (typically every 3-6 months) to maintain effective odor removal.
  • Regular Inspections: Periodically check the unit for any unusual noises or reduced performance. Contact a service technician if issues arise.
