Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Dimensions: The cooker hood measures 598W x 448D x 569H mm. It's designed to fit above a 60 cm hob.
Installation: The chimney height is adjustable, allowing for flexibility during installation to suit various kitchen layouts and ceiling heights. You will need to decide between ducted or recirculating setup during installation:
- Ducted (External Venting): Connects to an external duct system to vent cooking fumes outside your home. This method offers the most effective air extraction.
- Recirculating (Internal Filtering): If external venting isn't possible, the hood can filter the air and release it back into the kitchen. Crucially, this mode requires the purchase and installation of carbon filters (sold separately) to effectively remove odors from the air.
Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper function and safety.
Compatibility
This cooker hood is compatible with most standard 60 cm cooking hobs. For recirculating mode, ensure you purchase the correct carbon filters for this model.
Care
5-Layer Aluminum Filter Cleaning: The aluminum grease filters are designed for easy maintenance. For optimal performance, clean them regularly (typically every 3-4 weeks, depending on cooking frequency):
- Disassembly: Carefully unclip and remove the aluminum filters.
- Cleaning: Wash filters by hand in warm, soapy water or place them in a dishwasher. Ensure they are thoroughly dry before re-inserting.
- Reassembly: Slot the dry filters back into their housing, ensuring they are securely clipped in.
Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
LED Lights: The integrated LED lights are long-lasting. If replacement is needed, consult the user manual or a qualified technician.
