Common Issues and Troubleshooting
-
**Fan Not Operating
** The blower may not turn on due to the thermally protected system shutting it down when it gets too hot. The blower should work properly once it cools down -
**Vibration Issues
** The unit may vibrate if the blower is not securely in place, or if the blower wheel is damaged. This can be resolved by tightening the screws of the blower or contacting for service if the blower wheel is damaged -
**Ineffective Venting
** The hood might not vent properly if it's hanging too high above the cooktop, if there's wind interference from open windows or doors, if there's a blockage in the ductwork, or if the wrong size of ducting is used -
**Lights Not Working
** If the blower fan works but the lights do not, it could indicate a problem that requires professional service -
**Unit Turns On By Itself
** This issue may occur if light from a spotlight or kitchen lamp shines directly onto the switch controls, which are light-sensitive
Maintenance Recommendations
-
1. Task: Clean grease filters
Frequency: Frequency: Every 30 hours of fan usage
Details: Remove and clean the aluminum mesh filters by hand or in the dishwasher on low heat. Use a spray degreasing detergent and leave to soak if heavily soiled. Dry filters completely before reinstalling. -
2. Task: Clean surface
Frequency: Frequency: Periodically
Details: Use hot soapy water and a clean cotton cloth. Avoid corrosive or abrasive detergents. For heavier soil, use a liquid degreaser. After cleaning, polish and buff the surface with a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. -
3. Task: Check and possibly replace charcoal filters (if equipped)
Frequency: Frequency: Every 120 hours of fan usage
Details: If the range hood is recirculating air, charcoal filters should be replaced after 120 hours of usage.
- Clean the surfaces of the range hood periodically with hot soapy water and a clean cotton cloth. Avoid using corrosive or abrasive detergents, which can scratch and damage the surface.
- For heavier grease build-up, use a liquid degreaser. After cleaning, apply a non-abrasive stainless steel polish to restore the stainless luster.
- Regularly clean the aluminum mesh filters either by hand or in a dishwasher on low heat. Use a degreasing detergent and soak heavily soiled filters.
- Dry the filters thoroughly and reinstall them before using the hood again to ensure optimal performance.
- Always switch off the power at the main power switch before cleaning the range hood to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Energy Efficiency Tips
- Always run the fan at its optimal speed for the current cooking situation; use lower speeds for simmering and higher speeds for frying to save energy.
- Clean the mesh filters regularly to maintain efficient airflow and prevent the motor from working harder than necessary.
- Use the LED lighting efficiently by only turning it on when necessary, and switching it off when additional lighting is not required.
- Limit the use of the range hood to the necessary time by utilizing the Delay Off feature, which allows the fan to run for a set period before shutting off automatically.
- Ensure that the ductwork is clean and clear of obstructions, as this can improve the efficiency of exhaust and reduce energy usage.
- To avoid the possibility of explosion or fire, do not store or use combustible, flammable, or explosive vapors and liquids (such as gasoline) inside or in the vicinity of the range hood. Also, keep explosive items such as aerosol cans away from cooktop burners, ovens, and range hoods.
- Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch the power off at the service panel and lock the service panel door to prevent the power from being switched on accidentally. If the service panel door cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
- Do not install, repair, or replace any part of the range hood unless specifically recommended in the accompanying literature. A qualified service technician should perform all other service.
- Never leave cooktop surface units unattended at high settings. Boil-overs cause smoking and greasy spill-overs that may ignite. Always turn the hood on when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food.
- To reduce the risk of a range top grease fire, smother flames with a close-fitting lid or metal tray, then turn off the burner. Do not use water, including wet dishcloths or towels, as a violent steam explosion may result.
