- Cabinet Preparation: Ensure the cabinet is correctly sized to accommodate the hood's dimensions (1194 mm width, 340 mm depth). Follow the manufacturer's guidelines for cabinet modifications.
- Ducting: Connect the hood to a 150 mm diameter exhaust duct, ensuring it leads to the outside.
- Electrical Connection: Connect the hood to a 260W power supply.
- Filter Installation: Install the grease filters correctly before use.
Compatibility
- Cabinet Compatibility: The hood is designed for integration into standard kitchen cabinets.
- Hob Compatibility: Suitable for use with various hob types, including gas-fired cooktops. Note the hood should be installed a minimum of 50 cm from the hob if gas-fired.
Care
- Cleaning: Clean the stainless steel and glass surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Filter Maintenance: Clean or replace the grease filters regularly. Detach and wash them in warm, soapy water or place them in the dishwasher. Refer to the manual for specific cleaning instructions and frequency.
- Filter Replacement: Replace the carbon filters every 3-6 months based on usage, if applicable.
