To clean the filters, first remove them from the hood. Soak them in warm, soapy water and gently scrub with a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and make sure they are completely dry before reinserting them into the hood.
Ensure that the filters are clean and not clogged. Check if the extraction duct is clear and not obstructed. If the problem persists, consider checking the motor or contacting customer service for further assistance.
While it is possible to install the hood yourself, it is recommended to have a professional installer to ensure it is correctly and safely installed, especially if it involves electrical connections or modifications to existing ductwork.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning or replacing the filters, wiping down the exterior with a non-abrasive cleaner, and checking the function of the lights and controls.
First, disconnect the hood from the power supply. Remove the light cover, carefully take out the old bulb, and replace it with a new one of the same type and wattage. Reattach the light cover and reconnect the power.
Unusual noises can be caused by loose components, a blocked fan, or issues with the motor. Check for any loose parts and ensure there is no obstruction in the fan. If the noise persists, professional servicing may be required.
The hood typically offers multiple fan speeds to suit different cooking needs, ranging from low to high. Refer to the user manual for specific details and how to adjust the speed settings.
After cleaning or replacing the filters, press and hold the filter reset button (as indicated in the user manual) until the indicator light turns off. This resets the filter maintenance cycle.
Ensure that the hood is securely mounted and that the installation is free from vibrations. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the filters and fan, can also help in reducing noise levels.
For maximum efficiency, start the hood a few minutes before cooking to establish airflow, and leave it running for a few minutes after cooking to clear residual odors and moisture. Use the appropriate fan speed based on the cooking intensity.
