Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This is a 56cm wide integrated (semi-built-in) telescopic cooker hood. It is designed to be installed under standard kitchen cabinetry. Ensure that the designated space within your cabinets accommodates the hood's dimensions. Installation requires either a ducted system that vents air outside or a recirculating system that filters and returns air to the kitchen. Consult the product manual for detailed wiring and ducting/recirculation setup instructions.
Compatibility:
- Hob Size: Designed for standard hob installations, typically up to 60cm wide.
- Cabinetry: Requires a standard base cabinet with sufficient internal space for the hood and its workings.
- Ventilation: Compatible with both external ducting and internal recirculation systems. Charcoal filters (for recirculation) may need to be purchased separately.
Care:
- Grease Filters: The metal grease filters should be cleaned regularly (e.g., monthly, depending on usage) to maintain efficiency and prevent fire hazards. They are typically dishwasher-safe or can be washed by hand with warm, soapy water.
- Exterior: Wipe the stainless steel exterior with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- Interior: Clean the interior surfaces periodically.
- LEDs: The LED lights are designed for long life and typically do not require user maintenance.
