Frequently Asked Questions - AKR 400NB WHIRLPOOL
How do I clean the grease filter?
Remove the aluminum grease filter and wash it by hand or in the dishwasher at a low temperature. Let it dry completely before reinstalling. Clean the filter every 2 months or more often with heavy use.
Can I use the hood in recirculation mode?
Yes, the AKR 400NB can be used in recirculation mode with an optional activated charcoal filter (code 799336). This is useful when ducting outside is not possible.
How often should I replace the charcoal filter?
The charcoal filter should be replaced every 3 to 6 months, depending on usage and cooking habits. When the hood is used in recirculation mode, replace it regularly to maintain performance.
How do I install the duct for air extraction?
Connect the hood outlet to a 120 mm duct using the included connectors. Use the shortest, straightest route with minimal bends. Ensure the duct is sealed and leads outdoors for best performance.
What is the noise level at different speeds?
The noise level is approximately 45 dB(A) on the first speed, 52 dB(A) on the second, and 58 dB(A) on the maximum speed. These values are measured at a 1 meter distance.
How do I replace the LED light?
Switch off the hood and let the light cool. Gently pry the old LED module out of its housing and disconnect it. Connect the new LED module (Whirlpool spare part) and press it back into place.
My hood is not working, what should I check?
Verify the power supply is connected and the circuit breaker is on. Check that the controls are not blocked. If the motor runs but no extraction, the built-in thermal fuse may have tripped. Call customer service.
What is the recommended maintenance schedule?
Clean the grease filter every 2 months, inspect the duct for blockages every 6 months, and replace the charcoal filter every 3 to 6 months if in recirculation mode. Wipe the exterior regularly.
Can I use a longer duct than supplied?
Yes, you can extend the duct using 120 mm ducting, but keep it as short and straight as possible. Longer or more curved ducting reduces airflow and increases noise.
Where can I purchase spare parts?
Spare parts such as filters, LED modules, and control switches are available from Whirlpool's official customer service or authorized retailers. Use your model number AKR 400NB to find compatible parts.
