Frequently Asked Questions - INTERSTELLAR X BGL EICO

How to install the INTERSTELLAR X BGL hood?
Installation must be carried out by qualified personnel. The hood is mounted to the ceiling using the provided wall plugs. It is very heavy, requires two people. Respect safety distances: minimum 50 cm for an electric cooker, 65 cm for a gas cooker. Electrical connection must be made after installation, with a compliant circuit breaker.
What is the minimum distance between the hood and the cooktop?
The minimum distance is 50 cm for electric cookers and 65 cm for gas or mixed cookers. If the manual of your cooking appliance indicates a greater distance, you must respect it.
How to clean the grease filters?
Grease filters should be cleaned at least once a month. You can wash them in the dishwasher at low temperature (short cycle, max 65°C). Then dry them in the oven at 100°C for one hour. Replace them every 2 years.
How to clean the charcoal filter?
The charcoal filter can be cleaned every two months with hot water and mild detergent or in the dishwasher at 65°C (full cycle without dishes). Remove excess water and dry in the oven at 100°C for 10 minutes. Replace it every 3 years.
What to do when the filter saturation indicator lights up?
If LED L1 is solid red, clean the grease filters. If it flashes red, clean the charcoal filter. After cleaning, you can reset the signal by pressing T1 and T2 simultaneously on the hood while it is off for 5 seconds.
How to use the remote control?
The remote control operates with 3 AAA batteries. Use it to turn the hood on/off (T1), adjust suction speed (T3 by rotation or direct press on sectors), control lighting (T2 and T4), and program delayed shut-off (T5) or activate automatic sensor (T6).
How to activate automatic mode?
To activate automatic operation based on the smoke sensor, press T1 and T2 simultaneously on the hood. LED L1 displays multiple colors, LED L2 turns white. The sensor then adjusts the suction speed according to detected smoke.
Can I use the hood in extraction version?
Yes, you can purchase an optional extraction kit. In this case, do not install the charcoal filter. Follow the kit instructions, as installation may differ from that described for the recirculation version.
How to replace the LED lamps?
The lamps are integrated LEDs. For replacement, contact authorized customer service. Only use specific lamps recommended by the manufacturer.
How to reset the filter saturation signal after cleaning?
With the hood off, press T1 and T2 simultaneously for at least 5 seconds. LED L1 stops indicating saturation. Repeat the operation if both filters signal simultaneously.

Suggestions for a correct use in order to reduce the environmental impact: Switch ON the hood at minimum speed when you start cooking and kept it running for few minutes after cooking is finished. Increase the speed only in case of large amount of smoke and vapour and use boost speed(s) only in extreme situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good odour reduction efficiency. Clean the grease filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good grease filter efficiency. Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system indicated in this manual to optimize efficiency and minimize noise.

Use

The hood has been made for use in the internal recirculating filtering version.

Cooking fumes and steam are aspirated inside the hood, filtered and cleaned, passing through the fat filter/s and the carbon filter/s that MUST be supplied with the hood.

Important

It is possible to buy an extraction operation Kit.

In this case the charcoal filter must not be installed.

Furthermore, the use of the extraction kit may require a different installation of the hood from what shown in this manual; therefore, before starting the installation of the hood, buy the extraction kit and consult the instructions enclosed with the kit.

Installation

Specialised personnel must carry out both the electrical and the mechanical installation.

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and 65cm from gas or mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

EICO INTERSTELLAR X BGL - Installation - 1

Electrical connection

The mains tension must correspond to the tension shown on the characteristic label situated inside the hood.

The product is meant for connecting directly to the mains supply, therefore apply a regulation bipolar switch that ensures complete disconnection from the mains in the conditions of category III over-tension, conforming to the installation rules.

Warning! Detail B (fixing bracket to the ceiling) is equipped with a conductor (yellow-green) that must be connected to the earth of the domestic electrical plant. Fig. 16-17

EICO INTERSTELLAR X BGL - Electrical connection - 1

ATTENTION! Be particularly careful about positioning the cable. Failure to observe this indication could cause grave damage to the apparatus and/or an electric shock to the user or staller.

Warning! Changing the interconnection cable must be carried out by the authorised technical assistance service.

Mounting

Before beginning installation:

  • Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area.
  • Remove the charcoal (^) filter/s if supplied (see also relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only if you want to use the hood in the filtering version.
  • Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with screws (), guarantees (), etc.), eventually removing them and keeping them.

This type of cooker hood must be fixed to the ceiling.

Very heavy product; hood handling and installation must be carried out by at least two persons.

Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

Grease filter

Fig. 25-26-27

Traps cooking grease particles.

This must be cleaned at least once a month (or when the filter saturation indication system - envisaged on the model in possession - indicates this necessity), using non-aggressive detergents, in a dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle (Tmax: 70^ ).

When washed in a dishwasher, metal parts may discolour slightly.

The filter must be dried in an oven for one hour at a max temperature of 100^ ; if the filter is still moist, repeat the operation.

Replace the filter at least every 2 years.

Attention! After having performed maintenance on the filter, FIRST install the grease filter in the specific container and THEN the charcoal filter. The latter can be recognised as it is sealed inside a braiding.

Once the container has been repositioned, make sure only the grease filter is visible.

Charcoal filter (filter version only)

Fig. 25-26-27

It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.

Attention! The active charcoal filter can be recognised as it is sealed inside a braiding. Perform disassembly, maintenance and cleaning operations of the filter, managing it with the utmost care to avoid damaging or opening the braiding.

The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months (or when the filter saturation indication system - if envisaged on the model in possession - indicates this necessity) using hot water and a suitable detergent, or in a dishwasher at 65^ (if the dishwasher is used, select the full cycle function and leave dishes out).

Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then put it in the oven for 10 minutes at 100^ to dry completely. Replace the mattress every 3 years and when the cloth is damaged.

Attention! After having performed maintenance on the filter, FIRST install the grease filter in the specific container and THEN the charcoal filter. The latter can be recognised as it is sealed inside a braiding.

Once the container has been repositioned, make sure only the grease filter is visible.

Replacing lamps

Fig. 25

The hood is equipped with a lighting system based on LED technology.

The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting, a duration up to 10 times as long as the traditional lamps and allow to save 90% electrical energy.

To purchase spare LEDs, contact the technical assistance service.
