Frequently Asked Questions - SL93R InAlto

How do I install the InAlto SL93R range hood?

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional. Ensure the hood is mounted at least 65 cm above the cooking surface. Follow the user manual for ducting or recirculation setup.

How do I clean the grease filter?

Remove the aluminum grease filter and wash it with warm soapy water or in the dishwasher. Allow it to dry completely before reinserting. Replace if damaged.

How often should I replace the carbon filter?

For recirculating mode, replace the carbon filter every 3-6 months depending on usage. A saturated filter reduces efficiency.

Can the hood be used without ducting?

Yes, the SL93R can be used in recirculating mode with a carbon filter. The air is filtered and returned to the kitchen.

How do I replace the LED bulbs?

Turn off power, remove the bulb cover, and replace with the same type (e.g., 3W LED). Do not touch the new bulb with bare fingers.

Why is my hood noisy?

Check if the filters are clean and properly installed. Ensure ductwork is not blocked. Normal noise level is below 65 dB on high speed.

What does the child lock feature do?

The child lock prevents accidental operation of the hood controls. Refer to the manual to enable or disable it.

Where can I find spare parts?

Spare parts such as filters and bulbs are available from InAlto authorized dealers or online. Use only genuine parts.

What is the warranty period?

The InAlto SL93R typically comes with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects. Check your purchase receipt.

Can the motor be repaired?

Motor repair should only be done by a qualified technician. If the motor fails, contact InAlto support or a professional.

General Safety

Read this manual thoroughly before first use, even if you are familiar with this type of product. The safety precautions enclosed herein reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury when correctly adhered to. Keep the manual in a safe place for future reference, along with the completed warranty card and purchase receipt. If applicable, pass these instructions on to the next owner of the appliance.

Always follow basic safety precautions and accident prevention measures when using an electrical appliance, including the following:

Important installation advice

WARNING: All electrical work associated with the installation of this rangehood must be carried out by a licensed electrician.

WARNING: This rangehood must be installed by a suitably qualified person in strict accordance with all instructions in this manual.

Cables: Do not allow electrical fittings or cables to come into contact with areas on the associated equipment (cooktop or stove) that get hot.

Air discharge: The exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

External air evacuation: Make sure to follow your local laws that apply to external air evacuation when installing and using the rangehood.

Electrical safety and cord handling

Voltage and frequency: Before plugging the unit into an appropriate electrical outlet, make sure your outlet voltage and circuit frequency correspond to the voltage stated on the appliance rating label.

Power cord: Check the cord regularly for damage. Do not use the appliance if the cord, or any other part of the appliance, has been damaged.

Damaged cord: A damaged cord must be replaced by the manufacturer or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Disconnect: Before cleaning the rangehood, make sure to switch it off and unplug it from the electrical supply. Do not disconnect the appliance with wet hands. Grip by the plug, do not pull by the cord when disconnecting.

Usage conditions and restrictions

Domestic use only: This rangehood is designed for indoor domestic use only. It can be built into a standard kitchen cabinet or housing unit following the installation instructions in this manual.

Intended purpose: Only use this rangehood for its intended purpose, in its intended environment and as described in this manual. Any other use may cause fire, electric shock or injury.

Use common sense: These instructions are not intended to cover every possible condition and situation. As with any electrical household appliance, common sense and caution are therefore always recommended when installing, operating and maintaining the equipment.

General Safety Cont.

Usage restriction: This rangehood is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Children: Supervise young children to ensure they do not play with the appliance. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

No timer: The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote control system.

CAUTION: Take care when the rangehood is operating simultaneously with an open fireplace or burner that depend on air from the environment and are supplied by other than electrical energy, as the rangehood removes air from the environment which a burner or fireplace needs for combustion.

Ventilation: The rangehood removes air from the environment during use. Always provide adequate ventilation for safe operation of the rangehood. This is particularly important when the rangehood is used at the same time as flued heaters burning gas or other fuels.

CAUTION: No open flame cooking: Do not use an open flame for cooking underneath this rangehood. Open flames can damage the filters and present a fire hazard.

Unattended: Do not leave the rangehood unattended during use.

After use: Make sure to switch off the rangehood after use and before cleaning.

CAUTION: Do not touch the light bulbs after the appliance has been used as they may be hot. Let them cool down before cleaning and maintenance.

Other Useful Information

Cleaning and maintenance

CAUTION!

• Before cleaning the rangehood or carrying out maintenance, make sure the operation and light switches are set to the "0" position and the rangehood is disconnected from the power supply.
• It is important to clean the filters regularly as oil and food residues can become a fire hazard.
• Never use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the rangehood.

Cleaning the rangehood exterior

Wipe the exterior surface of the rangehood regularly using a soft cloth moistened with a household solvent such as methylated spirits, or with a sponge dampened with water and a little non-abrasive liquid detergent.

Cleaning the grease filters

The aluminium mesh filters must be cleaned regularly in order to prevent a fire hazard. Regular cleaning also ensures better efficiency, as grease and grime can impede the airflow. We recommend cleaning them at least every two months.

- Push in the plastic opening latch and take the filters out of their frames (Fig. 14).

Technical line drawing of a mechanical assembly with no visible text or symbols

- Wash the filters thoroughly in warm, soapy water, leaving them to soak for best results. Rinse with warm water and leave to dry.

NOTE: The aluminum panels may slightly change colour after several washes. This is not a fault and no cause for concern. It does not affect performance and does not warrant replacement of these parts.

Charcoal filters

If you are using the rangehood with the air recirculating back into the room, the charcoal filters which were supplied with the rangehood would have already been installed.

A charcoal filter absorbs cooking odours and must be changed regularly. How often you need to change the filters depends on your usage. We recommend changing them every three to six months. An activated charcoal filter cannot be washed or recycled; it must be replaced with a new one.

To obtain replacement filters, contact our after sales support line and arrange for purchase (see page 18 for details).

NOTE: The suction power will be lowered with charcoal filters installed.

To remove and/or install new filters, please see page 11.

Other Useful Information Cont.

Replacing a light bulb

If the light bulb needs replacing, proceed as follows:

• Slide out the front panel for easier access and remove the two aluminium mesh filters (Fig. 15).
• Carefully turn the bulb in anticlockwise direction and remove (Fig. 16).
• Replace the bulb with one of the same type and wattage (E14, 28W), as illustrated below (Fig. 17).
