Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This is a wall-mounted cooker hood. Ensure it is securely fixed to the wall according to the installation manual. The unit requires connection to a suitable electrical supply (220-240V, 50-60 Hz). For ducted extraction, a 15 cm exhaust connection diameter is required; ensure proper ducting is installed to the outside or a suitable vent. For recirculating mode, ensure carbon filters are installed.
Compatibility:
This hood is designed to be installed above a standard width hob. It is compatible with most kitchen layouts due to its ducted/recirculating options. The chimney height is adjustable between 73.5 cm and 101 cm to accommodate different ceiling heights.
Care:
- Grease Filters: The aluminium/charcoal grease filters are washable. Remove them regularly (check user manual for frequency) and wash by hand or in a dishwasher on a gentle cycle. Ensure they are completely dry before re-installing.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Lighting: The LED bulbs have a long lifespan but can be replaced if necessary. Refer to the manual for the specific bulb type and replacement procedure.
- Carbon Filters (Recirculating Mode): If used in recirculating mode, the charcoal filters will need replacing periodically (typically every 3-6 months, depending on usage). These are not usually washable.
