Frequently Asked Questions - ORW6XL OMEGA

What is the correct installation height for the ORW6XL hood?

For optimal performance, install the hood at a height of 65-75 cm (25.6-29.5 inches) above an electric hob or 75-85 cm (29.5-33.5 inches) above a gas hob.

How do I clean the grease filters?

The aluminum grease filters can be washed by hand with warm soapy water or in the dishwasher at low temperature. Ensure they are completely dry before reinstalling.

How often should the filters be cleaned?

Clean the grease filters every 3-4 months, or more frequently if the hood is used intensively. A clogged filter reduces extraction efficiency.

Can the hood operate in recirculation mode?

Yes, the ORW6XL can be used in recirculation mode with a carbon filter (not included). The carbon filter must be replaced every 3-6 months depending on usage.

What should I do if the hood is not extracting air properly?

Check if the grease filters are clean, the exhaust duct is not blocked, and the carbon filter (if used) is not saturated. Also ensure the installation height is correct.

How do I replace the LED lights?

The LED lights are integrated and should be replaced by a qualified technician. Do not attempt to replace them yourself to avoid electric shock.

Is the hood noisy during operation?

The noise level ranges from 45 dB on low speed to 65 dB on high speed. If you hear abnormal noise, check for loose parts or a blocked fan.

Can I install the hood myself?

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure electrical safety and proper venting. Improper installation may void the warranty.

What type of electrical connection does the hood require?

The hood requires a standard 220-240 V ~ 50 Hz socket with proper earthing. A dedicated circuit is recommended.

Where can I purchase spare parts?

Spare parts such as grease filters, LED bulbs, and motors are available through authorized OMEGA service centers or online retailers.

Operating Instructions

The re-usable aluminium grease filters supplied with this rangehood should be cleaned every month or so to avoid grease build-up.

To remove the grease filter, release the locking mechanism at the front of the filter, and lower the filter slightly to unhook it at the back.

Whilst the filter is removed, clean off any residual grease from the housing to avoid fire risk.

When replacing the grease filters, ensure that the locking mechanism is facing down.

If the rangehood is used in re-circulation mode, attach the re-circulating kit to the duct and line up to the vent to allow the air escape through the vents. The activated charcoal filter must be in place. These charcoal filters are designed to absorb cooking odours and are located in the canopy above the grease filters. Before fitting or replacing charcoal filters, the grease filters must first be removed.

To remove, or install, the charcoal filter - twist the charcoal filter in the direction shown below.
