Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Carefully unpack the hood and check for any damage.
- Follow the installation instructions provided in the manual. This typically involves mounting the hood to the wall and connecting it to the ducting system.
- Ensure the electrical connection meets safety standards.
- Once installed, test the hood to verify all functions are working correctly.
Compatibility:
The Elica Thin 70cm Chimney Extractor Hood is designed for ducted extraction. Ensure compatibility with your existing ducting system. Check the exhaust connection diameter (15 cm) to match your ductwork. The hood is designed for wall mounting.
Care:
- Cleaning: Clean the smooth stainless steel surface regularly with a damp cloth.
- Grease Filters: The aluminum grease filters are washable. Clean them periodically (e.g., once a month) to maintain optimal performance.
- Long Life Filter: The Long Life regenerable odor filter can last up to 3 years. Wash it in hot water with neutral soap or in the dishwasher at 65°C and dry in the oven at 100°C for 10 minutes every 2 months to keep it like new.
