Frequently Asked Questions - AHB91IX AIRLUX

What is the minimum installation height above the cooking surface?

The minimum safety distance between the cooking surface and the hood is 650 mm. If the gas cooking surface specifies a greater distance, follow that indication.

Can I use the hood without a carbon filter?

Yes, if the hood is connected to an external exhaust, the carbon filter is not necessary. In recirculation mode, it is mandatory.

How to clean the grease filters?

Grease filters should be cleaned every 2 months (or more often if used intensively). They are dishwasher safe or can be hand washed with a mild detergent.

When to replace the activated carbon filter?

The carbon filter cannot be washed and should be replaced approximately every 4 months. In case of intensive use, replace it more frequently.

Can I install the hood myself?

Electrical installation and connection must be carried out by a qualified technician. Respect safety distances and exhaust standards.

What to do if the hood does not turn on?

Check that the plug is properly connected and that power is supplied. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

How to adjust the suction speed?

Use the speed button: 1 for silence, 2 for normal use, 3 for intense vapors. Press to cycle through speeds.

Can there be a risk of fire?

Yes, if the grease filters are dirty or if you flambé food under the hood. Clean the filters regularly and never flambé under the hood.

How to replace the lighting?

Replacing the lighting must be done by the after-sales service. Do not attempt to do it yourself.

Can the hood operate with gas cooking?

Yes, but ensure adequate room ventilation. The negative pressure must not exceed 0.04 mbar to prevent gas backflow.

For your safety and correct operation of the appliance, read this manual carefully before installation and use. Always keep these instructions with the appliance even if you move or sell it. Users must fully know the operation and safety features of the appliance.

The wire connection has to be done by specialized technician.

• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.
• The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood is 650 mm (some models can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the paragraphs on working dimensions and installation).
• If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be respected.
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.
• Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.

• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.

• Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
  • Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.

• Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).
• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
