Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This cooker hood can be installed in two primary ways:
- Ducted Installation: This method requires external ventilation. The hood extracts air and expels it outside through ducting. Ensure proper sealing and connection to an external vent.
- Recirculation Mode: If external ducting is not feasible, the hood can recirculate air. This requires the purchase of an optional carbon filter (IGCF05130B) which cleans the air before releasing it back into the kitchen. The grease filters should be cleaned regularly in this mode.
Compatibility:
- The hood is designed for standard 60cm kitchen openings.
- For recirculation, ensure you have purchased the compatible Igenix carbon filter (IGCF05130B).
Care and Maintenance:
- Grease Filters: The dual grease filters should be cleaned regularly to maintain optimal performance. They are typically removable and can be washed by hand with warm, soapy water or in a dishwasher (check manufacturer instructions).
- Exterior Surfaces: Clean the stainless steel exterior with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
- LED Light: The LED light is designed for longevity. If it fails, consult the user manual for replacement instructions.
