Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup

- Ducted Installation: Requires a vent kit (optional accessory) to connect to an external vent. Ensure the vent diameter matches the hood's 150 mm outlet.
- Recirculating Installation: Install charcoal filters (optional accessory) according to the instructions. The filters absorb odors and clean the air.
- Electrical Connection: Connect the hood to a grounded electrical outlet with the correct voltage (220-240V, 50-60 Hz).
Compatibility
- Hob Compatibility: Ensure the hood is installed at the recommended distance above your hob (65 cm for electric hobs, 75 cm for gas hobs).
- Ventilation: Confirm that your kitchen has access to an external vent for ducted installation, or consider using the recirculation method.
Care
- Cleaning: Regularly clean the stainless steel grease filters by hand or in a dishwasher.
- Wiping: Wipe the hood's exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove grease and grime.
- Filter Replacement: Replace charcoal filters regularly (every 3-6 months) if using the recirculating method. Refer to the user manual for specific cleaning and maintenance instructions.
