Troubleshooting
The hood is not extracting air efficiently
Check if the grease filters are clogged and require cleaning, or if the charcoal filters in recirculating mode are saturated.

Ensure that the extraction duct is properly secured and not obstructed, and check that the hood is mounted level.
LED lights are not turning on
Verify the unit is receiving power and check if the bulbs are properly seated or need replacement.

Maintenance Tips:
- Grease Filters: Remove the stainless steel filters regularly and wash them (most can be cleaned in a dishwasher or with warm, soapy water) to maintain airflow efficiency.
- Charcoal Filters: If you are using the recirculating mode, ensure the charcoal filters are replaced periodically as per the user manual to keep odour filtration effective.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth and non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner to maintain the exterior housing.
