Frequently Asked Questions - AK7536BS Zephyr

How to install the Zephyr AK7536BS range hood?

Installation should be carried out by a qualified professional. Fix the wall mounting bracket at the recommended height (65-75 cm above the cooktop). Connect the exhaust duct if necessary. Plug in the appliance and check operation.

How often should the grease filter be cleaned?

The metal grease filter must be cleaned once a month with warm soapy water or in the dishwasher. A clogged filter reduces the hood's efficiency.

Can I use the hood without external evacuation?

Yes, the Zephyr AK7536BS range hood can operate in recirculation mode. You will need to install a charcoal filter (not supplied) to absorb odors.

How to replace the LED bulb?

Unplug the hood. Locate the LED module, unclip it and replace it with an LED bulb of the same type (2W, GU10). Put it back in place and plug it back in.

The hood makes an abnormal noise, what to do?

Check that the filter is clean and properly in place. Make sure the exhaust duct is not blocked. If the noise persists, contact after-sales service.

How to use the remote control?

The remote control allows you to control the fan speed, lighting and on/off. Point it towards the hood's receiver. Replace the battery (CR2032) if necessary.

What is the warranty of the Zephyr AK7536BS range hood?

The manufacturer's warranty is 2 years for parts and labor. Keep the purchase receipt to claim the warranty.

Can I install the hood above a gas cooktop?

Yes, maintain a minimum distance of 65 cm between the hood and the cooking surface. Ensure the hood complies with safety standards for gas.

How to reset the filter saturation indicator?

Press the 'Reset' button (or hold down the lighting button) for 3 seconds until the indicator turns off. Refer to the manual for the exact model.

Where to buy spare parts for the AK7536BS range hood?

Spare parts (filters, bulbs, remote control) are available on the official Zephyr website or from authorized dealers. Use the model number to order.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

a. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
b. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flaming food
c. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
d. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.
e. Keep fan, filters and grease laden surfaces clean.
f. Use high setting on hood only when necessary.
g. Don't leave hood unattended when cooking.
h. Always use cookware and utensils appropriate for the type of and amount of food being prepared.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

a. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.
c. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
d. Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

1. You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
2. The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3. The fire department is being called.
4. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

a. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards. Including fire-rated construction.
b. Sufficient air is needed for power combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent back-drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the local code authorities.
c. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
d. Ducted fans must always vent to the outdoors.
e. NEVER place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.
f. Make sure the power is off before installing, wiring or maintaining.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.

CAUTION

To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air outside - Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls, ceilings, attics, crawl spaces or garages.

OPERATION

Always leave safety grilles and filters in place. Without these components, operating blowers could catch onto hair, fingers and loose clothing.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of failure to observe the instructions given here for installation, maintenance and suitable use of the product. The manufacturer further declines all responsibility for injury due to negligence and the warranty of the unit automatically expires due to improper maintenance.

DUCTING

A minimum of 8" round or 3-1/4" x 10" rectangular duct must be used to maintain maximum air flow efficiency for single internal blower and 10" round duct for dual internal blower.

Always use rigid type metal ducts only. Flexible ducts could restrict air flow by up to 50%.

Also use calculation (on page 5) to compute total available duct run when using elbows, transitions and caps.

ALWAYS, when possible, reduce the number or transitions and turns. If long duct run is required, increase duct size.

If turns or transitions are required; install as far away from hood duct output and as far apart, between the two as possible.

Minimum mount height between range top to hood bottom should be no less than 26".

Maximum mount height should be no higher than 36".

It is important to install the hood at the proper mounting height. Hoods mounted too low could result in heat damage and fire hazard; while hoods mounted too high will be hard to reach and will lose its performance and efficiency.

If available, also refer range manufacturer's height clearance requirements and recommended hood mounting height above range.

Vertical Ducting:

8" round minimum (single internal blower)

10" round minimum (dual internal blower)

Horizontal Ducting:

8" round minimum (single internal blower)
3-1/4"x10" minimum (single internal blower)
10" round minimum (dual internal blower)

DAMAGE-SHIPMENT / INSTALLATION:

• Please fully inspect unit for damage before installation.
• If the unit is damaged in shipment, return the unit to the store in which it was bought for repair or replacement.
• If the unit is damaged by the customer, repair or replacement is the responsibility of the customer.
• If the unit is damaged by the installer (if other than the customer), repair of replacement must be made by arrangement between customer and installer.

WARNING FIRE HAZARD

NEVER exhaust air or terminate duct work into spaces between walls, crawl spaces, ceiling, attics or garages. All exhaust must be ducted to the outside.

Use metal ductwork only.

Fasten all connections with sheet metal screws and tape all joints with certified Silver Tape or Duct Tape.

Fan Curve Diagrams

Airflow Control Technology (ACT)

Some local codes limit the maximum amount of CFM a range hood can move. ACT allows you to control the maximum blower CFM of hoods with of select Zephyr Ventilation range hoods without the need for expensive make up air kits. ACT enables the installer to easily set the maximum blower speed to one of two most commonly specified CFM levels; 390 or 290 CFM. The usage of ACT may not be necessary for your installation. Please check your local codes for CFM restrictions.

By default the maximum blower CFM is set to 650.

To verify if your installer enabled ACT; With hood off, press and hold the blower on/off button for three seconds. If the number 6 displays = default max. CFM, if the number 3 displays = max. 390 CFM, and if the number 2 displays = max. 290 CFM. When ACT is enabled, the number of blower speeds will be reduced. 390 CFM = max. 3 speeds and 290 CFM = max. 2 speeds. There should also be a foil label located inside the hood body near the wiring diagram that indicates the blower CFM.
