Frequently Asked Questions - D2654X0 NEFF

How to install the Neff D2654X0 hood?

Installation must be carried out by a qualified professional. Respect the minimum distances from the hob (65 cm for electric hob, 75 cm for gas). Use the supplied drilling template.

How to clean the grease filters?

The metal grease filters can be washed in the dishwasher at 65°C or by hand with a soft brush. Dry them thoroughly before reinstalling.

When to change the carbon filter?

The activated carbon filter must be replaced every 6 to 12 months depending on use. It is not washable. Check the manual for the part number.

How to adjust the suction speed?

Use the control buttons: speed 1 for gentle cooking, 2 for normal cooking, 3 for strong odors. The intensive button (I) boosts suction for 10 minutes.

What to do if the hood does not turn on?

Check the power supply, the fuse, and that the plug is connected. If the problem persists, contact Neff after-sales service.

How to replace the LED bulbs?

Unplug the hood, remove the cover, unclip the defective bulb and replace it with an LED bulb of the same type (part number in the manual).

Before installation

Appliance description Operating modes

Operating modes

Exhaust-air mode:

☐ The extractor-hood fan extracts the kitchen vapours and conveys them through the grease filter into the atmosphere. ☐ The grease filter absorbs the solid particles in the kitchen vapours. ☐ The kitchen is kept almost free of grease and odours.

If the extractor hood is operated in exhaust-air mode at the same time as a flue-type heater (e.g. gas, oil or solid-fuel heater, instantaneous water heater, boiler), ensure that there is an adequate air supply, which the heater requires for combustion.

Safe operation is possible provided that the partial vacuum in the room in which the heater is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).

This can be achieved if the combustion air is able to flow through non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and in conjunction with an air supply/air-intake wall box or by other technical procedures such as reciprocal interlocking.

If the air intake is inadequate, there is a risk of poisoning from combustion gases which are drawn back into the room.

An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no guarantee that the limiting value will not be exceeded.

Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the combined ventilation system for the entire household must be taken into consideration. This rule does not apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as hobs and ovens.

Unrestricted operation is possible if the extractor hood is used in recirculating mode – with activated carbon filter.

Circulating-air mode:

☐ This requires installation of an activated carbon filter (see section on filter and maintenance). ☐ The activated carbon filter is obtainable as a special accessory from your authorized dealer. ☐ The corresponding accessory numbers can be found at the end of these operating instructions. ☐ The extractor-hood fan extracts the kitchen vapours, which are purified in the grease filter and activated carbon filter and then conveyed back into the kitchen. ☐ The grease filter absorbs the grease particles in the kitchen vapours. ☐ The activated carbon filter binds the odorous substances.

⚠️ If no activated carbon filter is installed, it is not possible to bind the odorous substances in the cooking vapours.

Important information Before installation

⚠️Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. Valuable raw materials can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances. Before disposing of your old appliance, render it unusable. ⚠️You received your new appliance in a protective shipping carton. All packaging materials are environmentally friendly and recyclable. Please contribute to a better environment by disposing of packaging materials in an environmentally-friendly manner.

Please ask your dealer or inquire at your local authority about current means of disposal.

The extractor hood can be used in exhaust air or circulating air mode. Always mount the extractor hood over the centre of the hob. The minimum distance between the hob and the lower edge of the extractor hood is 650 mm. The extractor hood must not be installed over a solid fuel cooker – a potential fire hazard (e.g. flying sparks) – unless the cooker features a closed, non-removable cover and all national regulations are observed. The smaller the gap between the extractor hood and hotplates, the greater the likelihood that droplets will form on the underside of the extractor hood.

Additional information concerning gas cookers:

When installing gas hotplates, comply with the relevant national statutory regulations (e.g. in Germany: Technische Regeln Gasinstallation TRGI). Always comply with the currently valid regulations and installation instructions supplied by the gas appliance manufacturer. Only one side of the extractor hood may be installed next to a high-sided unit or high wall. Gap at least 50 mm.

Optimum efficiency of the extractor hood:

Short, smooth exhaust pipe. As few bends as possible. Pipe diameter as large as possible (ideally 150 mm dia.) and wide pipe bends.

If long, rough exhaust-air pipes, many pipe bends or smaller pipe diameters are used, the air extraction rate will no longer be at an optimum level and there will be an increase in noise.

Round pipes

Short exhaust air pipe: inside diameter min. 120 mm, Longer exhaust air pipe: inside diameter min. 150 mm.

Flat ducts must have an inside cross-section equivalent to that of the round pipes.

There should be no sharp bends.

∅ 120 mm dia. approx. 113 cm² ∅ 150 mm dia. approx. 177 cm²

If pipe diameters differ, insert sealing strip. Ensure that there is an adequate air supply for exhaust air mode.

Exhaust-air mode

The exhaust air is discharged upwards through a ventilation shaft or directly through the outside wall into the open.

Exhaust air must not be discharged via a smoke or exhaust gas flue which is already in use or via a shaft which is used for ventilating rooms in which fireplaces are located.

Discharge exhaust air in accordance with official and statutory regulations (e.g. national building regulations).

Discharge of air into smoke or exhaust air flues which are not in use requires the consent of a heating engineer.

If the extractor hood is operated in exhaust-air mode at the same time as a flue-type heater (e.g. gas, oil or solid-fuel heater, instantaneous water heater, boiler), ensure that there is an adequate air supply which the heater requires for combustion.

Safe operation is possible provided that the partial vacuum in the room in which the heater is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).

This can be achieved if the combustion air is able to flow through non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and in conjunction with an air supply/air-intake wall box or by other technical procedures such as reciprocal interlocking.

If the air intake is inadequate, there is a risk of poisoning from combustion

gases, which are drawn back into the room.

An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no guarantee that the limiting value will not be exceeded.

Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the combined ventilation system for the entire household must be taken into consideration. This rule does not apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as hobs and gas cookers.

The extractor hood can be used without restriction in circulating air mode – with an activated carbon filter.

⚠ For exhaust air mode always cut out the protective grid in the air connector.

Before installation

With exhaust mode, a backwash valve should be installed unless it is already incorporated in the exhaust pipe or wall box. If a backwash valve is not included with your appliance, your dealer can supply you with one (see accessories).

Installation backwash valve:

Insert the backwash valve in the mounting openings on the air connector.

If the exhaust air is being routed through the outside wall, a telescopic wall box should be used.

Connecting to ∅100 mm exhaust air duct

Attach the reducing adapter (enclosed or available from specialist dealer) to the air outlet. Attach the exhaust-air duct to the adapter.

Connecting to ∅120 mm exhaust air duct

Attach the exhaust-air duct directly to the air outlet.

Connecting to ∅150 mm exhaust air duct

Attach the enlarging adapter (enclosed or available from specialist dealer) to the air outlet. Attach the exhaust-air duct to the adapter.

If a backflow flap has been installed, check that it functions properly.

Circulating-air mode

With activated carbon filter if exhaust-air mode is not possible.

The air purified by an additional activated carbon filter is returned to the room.

After installing the extractor hood, insert the activated carbon filter.

For installing see Filters and maintenance. If the extractor hood is installed beneath a cabinet, ensure that there is an adequate air outlet (min. 177 cm²).

The extractor comes as standard equipped with a protective grid in the air connector. If this has been removed (in the case of exhaust air operation), the air connector must be supplemented by a reducer piece with protective grid (see section on special accessories).
