Frequently Asked Questions - FPJ 925 V WH/SS FRANKE

How to install the FPJ 925 V WH/SS hood?

Installation must be carried out by a qualified professional. The hood must be securely fixed to the wall at a height of 65 to 75 cm above the cooktop. Follow the mounting diagram provided in the manual.

How to clean the grease filters?

The stainless steel grease filters can be cleaned in the dishwasher or by hand with hot soapy water. Let them dry completely before putting them back. Frequency: every 2 months.

Do I need a charcoal filter for this hood?

A charcoal filter is necessary only if you use the hood in recirculation mode. It is placed behind the grease filters. It must be replaced every 6 months approximately.

What to do if the hood does not turn on?

First check the electrical connection and the circuit breaker. Then inspect the bulb and the fuse. If the problem persists, contact Franke after-sales service.

How to adjust the hood speed?

Use the push buttons on the control panel. There are 3 speeds: low for simmering, medium for normal cooking, high for strong odors.

What is the recommended installation height?

For a 90 cm hood, the minimum height between the cooktop and the hood is 65 cm for electric cooking and 75 cm for gas cooking.

How to replace the LED bulb?

Unplug the hood. Remove the plastic diffuser by unclipping it. Unscrew the LED bulb and replace it with a bulb of the same type (3 W, GU10 base). Reassemble the diffuser.

The hood is noisy, is this normal?

A slight noise is normal, especially at high speed. If the noise becomes abnormal, check that the filters are properly in place and that no object is obstructing the duct. A rattling noise may indicate a loose filter.

Can the hood be used in recirculation mode without a duct?

Yes, it is possible. A recirculation kit containing a charcoal filter must be installed. The filtered air is returned to the room. Ensure the room is well ventilated.

Where to find spare parts for my Franke hood?

Spare parts are available from Franke after-sales service. You can order online from the official website or contact an authorized dealer. Have the model number FPJ 925 V WH/SS ready.

For your own safety and to ensure proper operation of the appliance, please read this manual carefully before installation and operation. Keep these instructions together with the appliance, even if it is sold or transferred to third parties. It is important that users know all the appliance's operating and safety characteristics.

The cables must be connected by a trained technician.

• The manufacturer shall not be considered responsible for any injury or damage caused by improper installation or use.
• The minimum safety distance between the hob and the suction hood is 650 mm (some models may be fitted at a lower height; please see the paragraph relating to working dimensions and installation).
• If the instructions for installation of the gas hob specify a distance greater than the one indicated, this must be taken into account.
• Check that the mains power supply corresponds to the one indicated on the data plate affixed inside the hood.
• The cut-out devices must be installed in the fixed system according to wiring system regulations.
• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply is adequately earthed.
• Connect the hood to the flue using a pipe with a minimum diameter of 120 mm. The fumes must travel the shortest distance possible.
• All the air venting regulations must be complied with.
• Do not connect the ducting hood to flues that also carry combustion fumes (e.g. boilers, chimneys, etc.).
• If the hood is used in combination with non electric appliances (e.g. gas appliances), a sufficient level of ventilation must be guaranteed in the room to prevent any exhaust backflow. If the kitchen hood is used in combination with appliances that are not electrically powered, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0.04 mbar to avoid any risk of the fumes being sucked back into the room by the hood.
• The air must not be extracted through a flue that is also used as an exhaust flue for fumes from gas or other fuel powered combustion devices.
• If it is damaged, the power cable must be replaced by the manufacturer or by a service technician.
• Connect the plug to a socket that complies with current regulations and is in an accessible position.

- As regards the technical and safety measures to be taken for exhausting fumes, it is important that the regulations set by local authorities be complied with scrupulously.

CAUTION: remove the protective films before installing the hood.

- Only use screws and hardware of a sort suitable for the hood.

CAUTION: failure to install the screws or fixing devices as described in these instructions may mean there is a risk of electric shocks.

- Do not flambé food under the hood: you might cause a fire.

- This appliance may be used by children over the age of 8 years and by persons with limited psycho-physical and sensory abilities or with insufficient experience and knowledge, provided they are carefully supervised and instructed on how to use the appliance safely and on the dangers that it involves.
