Frequently Asked Questions - ECLIPSE FABER

What is the minimum distance between the hood and the cooking surface?

The minimum safety distance is 650 mm above the cooking surface. If the instructions of the gas stove manufacturer specify a greater distance, that distance prevails.

How to install the air exhaust?

The hood can be installed in extracting mode (external exhaust) or recirculating mode (recycling). For exhaust, use a rigid or flexible tube of diameter 120 mm or 150 mm. The tube can exit from the upper or rear part of the hood.

How to clean the grease filters?

The metal grease filters are dishwasher safe. It is recommended to wash them every 2 months, or more frequently with heavy use. Let them dry before reinstalling.

When should the charcoal filter be replaced?

The activated charcoal filter is neither washable nor regenerable. It must be replaced every 4 months, or more often if the hood is heavily used. To replace it, first remove the grease filters.

How to use the boost speed (4th speed)?

Press the T3 button for 2 seconds to activate the timed 4th speed. The motor runs at full power for 6 minutes, then automatically returns to the previous speed. This function is ideal for smoke peaks.

What to do if the lighting stops working?

For lighting replacement, contact authorized after-sales service. Do not attempt to replace the bulbs yourself if the manual does not specify it.

Can I use the hood without external exhaust?

Yes, in recirculating mode. Make sure the activated charcoal filter is installed. In this case, the air is recycled and returned to the room. Ensure a minimum distance of 8-10 cm above the hood to the ceiling or a shelf.

What exhaust duct diameter is recommended?

The hood is designed for a 150 mm diameter duct. If using a 120 mm duct, insert the supplied reduction nozzle on the hood outlet.

How to install the hood in extracting mode with rear outlet?

Screw the reduction cap (ref. 8c) onto the upper part of the hood using two screws. Then connect the exhaust duct to the rear outlet.

What to do if the hood does not turn on after installation?

Check that the power cable connector is properly inserted into the hood socket, and that the double-pole switch is in the ON position. Also ensure the power supply is compliant (mains voltage and grounding).
