FAQs
How do I clean the grease filters?
The aluminum grease filters are dishwasher-safe. You can also clean them by hand with warm, soapy water.
How often should I replace the carbon filters?
Replace the carbon filters every 3 to 6 months, depending on your cooking frequency.
What kind of vent hose do I need?
The vent hose is not included. You will need to purchase a vent hose that is compatible with your cooker hood's outlet size and your home's venting system.
How do I install the carbon filters?
Refer to the product manual for detailed instructions on installing the carbon filters. Typically, they attach inside the hood before the air is recirculated.
Can I use the hood without a vent hose?
Yes, if you install optional carbon filters. This will recirculate the air rather than extracting it outside.
What should I do if the hood is making a strange noise?
Turn off the hood immediately. Check for any obstructions, such as objects that may have fallen into the fan. Ensure the hood is securely mounted. If the noise persists, contact customer support.
Where can I find the product manual?
The product manual is included with your cooker hood. You may also find a digital version on the manufacturer's website.
What is the warranty period?
Refer to your product documentation for warranty details. Typically, electriQ products come with a standard warranty period.

Lights not working.
Check the light bulbs and replace them if necessary. Consult the manual for bulb specifications.
