Frequently Asked Questions - BPP52L BAUMATIC

What is the minimum installation height above the hob?

For electric and gas hobs, the minimum distance is 700 mm. For coal or oil cookers, it is 800 mm. This ensures safe operation and optimal performance.

How do I clean the grease filter?

Remove the filter by sliding the securing nibs, soak in hot water with mild detergent for about an hour, rinse thoroughly, and let it dry completely before refitting. Do not wash in a dishwasher.

How often should the grease filter be cleaned?

It should be cleaned every two months, or more frequently if you cook often. A dirty filter can be a fire hazard.

Can I use the range hood in recirculation mode?

Yes, but you need to install an optional carbon filter (part ST1). In recirculation mode, air is filtered through charcoal and returned to the kitchen.

How do I replace the LED light?

Ensure the hood is switched off and cool. Press gently on the bulb and twist anticlockwise to release. Replace with genuine part SYKL25 only.

What should I do if the range hood is noisy?

Check that installation is secure and all fastenings are tight. Some noise is normal due to the fan. If excessive, ensure ducting is not blocked and filters are clean.

The range hood does not start. What could be wrong?

Check that it is connected to power and that you have selected a fan speed. Also verify the power outlet is working. If still not starting, contact an authorized service agent.

What is the difference between extraction and recirculation mode?

In extraction mode, air is vented outside via ducting. In recirculation mode, air is filtered through a carbon filter and returned to the kitchen. Extraction is more efficient.

How do I install the carbon filter?

Switch off the hood. Remove the grease filter, twist the old carbon filter anticlockwise to remove, then install the new one by turning clockwise. Reattach the grease filter.

What is the warranty period for this range hood?

The product is covered by a 24-month warranty from the date of purchase, subject to terms and conditions. Register online at www.applico.co.nz/register.

  ○ If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slot-in cookers from their position, to provide easier access to the rear wall and ceiling. If this is not possible then a thick, protective covering should be placed over the worktop, hob top or cooker. This will help to protect these surfaces from damage and debris.
• Select a flat surface for assembling the rangehood. Cover that surface with a protective covering and place all rangehood parts and fittings on it.
• Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall or cabinetry. This appliance is designed to be surface mounted only.

Installing your rangehood

IMPORTANT: You will have to decide before installing your rangehood whether to use it in extraction mode or recirculation mode. Please refer to page 14 to understand the differences between these two modes.

- We recommend that at least two people install this rangehood.

○ If you are using the appliance in recirculation mode, then PLEASE NOTE that all of the vent in the upper chimney section must be exposed. You will have to take this into account when calculating the minimum height of the extractor when installed.

○ IMPORTANT: If the recirculation vents are obstructed then the efficiency of the extraction will be affected and could damage the motor.

IMPORTANT: YOUR RANGEHOOD SHOULD BE CONNECTED TO YOUR MAINS SUPPLY AFTER THE REST OF THE INSTALLATION PROCESS HAS BEEN COMPLETED.

1) The cooker hood should be placed at a distance of 65-75cm (26-30inch) from the cooking surface for the best effect.
2) Drill a hole in the cupboard, 490mm*265mm. Make sure the distance between the edge of the hole and the edge of the cupboard edge is at least 35mm.
3) Take down the filter and remove the four screws on the panel.
4) Use eight ST4 x 18mm screws to fix the hood into cabinet.
5) Fix the panel back to the body and equip the filter.
6) Connect the ducting pipe to the outlet.

Connecting to external ducting (top)

• Connect the coupling to the top of the rangehood, using two of the smaller screws provided.
  ○ (If side ducting, this is either through the wall or the Soffit)
• Connect a 150 mm ducting hose to a discharge outlet that is suitable for cooking vapours. Please note that the ducting hose is not supplied with the appliance but one can be obtained from the Retail outlet where you purchased your appliance.
• The maximum distance between the coupling and your discharge outlet should be 3 metres, with one 90 degree bend. For each additional 90 degree bend, the maximum distance is reduced by a further metre.
  Before fixing the rangehood into the kitchen unit, you should connect the other end of the ducting hose to the coupling in the top of the cooker hood.

Completing the installation

If you are setting the appliance to recirculation mode, then you should now fit the two carbon filters. See the section "Fitting the carbon filter" on page 9.

The electrical connection must correspond to the electrical requirement noted on the rating plate, which is placed inside the rangehood. The appliance should now be connected to the electrical supply. See page 10 for detailed information on the electrical connection.

Refit the grease filter and then switch on the mains supply to the appliance. Check that the appliance is operating correctly by selecting each speed and switching the light bulb on and off.

Extraction mode or recirculation mode?

IMPORTANT: You will have to decide prior to installing your rangehood whether to use it in extraction mode or recirculation mode.

What is the difference between extraction and recirculation modes?

In extraction mode, the stale air will be taken via the grease filter and out of the room via external ducting.

In recirculation mode stale air is taken via the grease filter, and passed through a charcoal filter for purification. The air then re-enters the kitchen via an opening in the rangehood.

For optimum performance, we recommend that the rangehood is used in extraction mode and connected to external ducting.

Unfortunately if you live in a flat, or if the rangehood is too far from an outside wall, this may not be possible. The only alternative is to recirculate the air.

Do I need a charcoal filter?

All rangehoods have a grease filter but if you are using your rangehood in recirculation mode, then a charcoal filter must be fitted in addition to the grease filter.

Troubleshooting

IMPORTANT: If your rangehood appears not to be operating properly, before contacting an authorised service agent, please refer to the checklist below.

My rangehood will not start.

- Check that the rangehood is connected to the power supply and whether you have selected any of the fan speeds.

My rangehood is not working effectively.

• Check that the fan speed is set to an appropriate setting.
• Check that the grease filters are not dirty and do not require cleaning.
• If the rangehood is set up for recirculation mode, check that the carbon filter does not need to be replaced.
• If the rangehood is set up for extraction mode, check that the ducting hose and discharge outlet are not blocked.

My rangehood is noisy and/or vibrating.

• Check whether the installation has been completed as per the instruction booklet.
• It is normal to get a certain amount of noise and vibration, due to the extraction capacity of the rangehood.

IMPORTANT: If your appliance appears not to be operating correctly, then you should disconnect it from your mains supply and then contact an Authorised Service Agent. Log onto www.baumatic.co.nz to locate a Service Agent nearest to you.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE APPLIANCE YOURSELF.
