Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Installation: The cooker hood can be installed for ducted extraction (requires venting to the outside) or recirculating operation (using carbon filters, sold separately).
- Measurements: Ensure the hood fits the available space, considering the product dimensions (740 x 898 x 470 mm).
- Electrical: Connect the hood to a 220-240V, 50-60 Hz power supply.
Compatibility
The Smeg 90cm Chimney Cooker Hood is designed to be compatible with a wide range of kitchen setups. It can be used above a large hob or cooker and is suitable for both electric and gas hobs, provided that the minimum distances are observed.
Care
- Cleaning the Filters: Remove the aluminum grease filters and wash them by hand with soapy water. It is recommended to clean them regularly (e.g., every month) to maintain performance.
- Cleaning the Hood: Wipe the stainless steel surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
- Replacing Filters: If using the recirculating mode, replace the carbon filters as per the manufacturer's recommendations (typically every 3-6 months, depending on usage).
