FAQs
Does the SIA Cooker Hood come with a plug?
No, this product does not come with a plug. It is designed to be hardwired into your mains electricity supply by a qualified electrician.
Can I use this cooker hood if I don't have an external vent?
Yes, this cooker hood supports both external extraction and internal re-circulation. For re-circulation, you will need to purchase SIA2 charcoal filters separately.
How do I clean the grease filters?
The aluminium grease filters are dishwasher safe. Simply remove them from the hood and place them in your dishwasher for easy cleaning.
What is the recommended clearance height above my hob?
The required clearance is 750mm for gas hobs and 650mm for electric hobs. Always consult your hob's instruction manual; if it specifies a greater distance, that must be followed.
What accessories do I need to buy separately?
You will need to purchase SIA2 re-circulation filters if you intend to use the hood in re-circulation mode. For external extraction, a D5 or D7 ducting kit will be required, depending on your installation needs. A plug is also not supplied.
What is the warranty period for this product?
The SIA Cooker Hood comes with a 5 Year Parts & 2 Year Labour Guarantee. This guarantee is subject to product registration within 30 days of purchase.
What is the noise level of the cooker hood?
The noise level of this cooker hood is 66 dBa, which is typical for appliances of this type and power.
Troubleshooting
The cooker hood does not turn on.
First, ensure the power supply is connected correctly, as the product does not come with a plug and requires professional installation. Check if the mains fuse has blown (rated at 3A). Ensure the push button controls are fully engaged.
Poor extraction performance.
Check if the aluminium grease filters are dirty and require cleaning; they are dishwasher safe. If using re-circulation mode, verify that the charcoal filters (SIA2) are not expired and need replacement. Ensure there are no obstructions in the ducting (if externally vented).
Excessive noise during operation.
Ensure the hood is securely installed and all mounting screws are tightened. Check that the ducting (if used) is correctly fitted and free of kinks or blockages. Confirm that the grease filters are clean and correctly seated.
LED light is not working.
Check the power supply to the unit. While LED lights have a long lifespan, if the light fails, it may require professional inspection or replacement. Avoid attempting to replace it yourself unless specified in the manual.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Unpacking: Carefully remove the cooker hood from its packaging. Retain all packaging until you are sure the product is fully installed and working correctly.
Power Connection: This product does not come with a plug. A qualified electrician should install it to the mains electricity supply, ensuring it is connected to a suitable 3A fuse-rated circuit.
Mounting Height: Adhere strictly to the required clearance heights:
Over a gas hob: Minimum 750mm.
Over an electric hob: Minimum 650mm.
Important: Always check your hob's manual; if it states a greater clearance, that instruction takes precedence.
Installation Type: Decide between:
External Extraction: Requires a D5 or D7 ducting kit (sold separately) to vent air outside via the 150mm outlet.
Internal Re-circulation: Requires SIA2 re-circulation (charcoal) filters (sold separately) to purify and return air to the kitchen.
Chimney Sections: Install the two telescopic chimney sections, adjusting the height to fit your ceiling.
Compatibility
Designed for use above 60cm wide hobs. Ensure sufficient ceiling height to meet the minimum clearance requirements for your specific hob type.
Care
Grease Filters: The two aluminium grease filters are dishwasher safe. Remove them regularly (e.g., monthly depending on usage) and wash them in your dishwasher to maintain optimal extraction performance.
Charcoal Filters (if re-circulating): If using the hood in re-circulation mode, the charcoal filters (SIA2) are not washable and must be replaced every 3-6 months, or more frequently with heavy use.
Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the black exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
LED Light: The 1.5W LED light is designed for long life, but if replacement is needed, consult the manufacturer's instructions or a qualified technician.
