Frequently Asked Questions - CBG6251WP CANDY

How to install the Candy CBG6251WP hood?

Installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician. The hood is built into a suspended cabinet after cutting a 490 x 250 mm opening. Secure it with the 8 screws provided, then refit the front panel. Ensure electrical connection with earthing (class I).

What is the recommended distance between the hood and the cooktop?

The safety distance is 65 to 75 cm above the cooking surface for optimal performance.

How to clean the grease filter?

Clean the grease filter every month with a household detergent or in the dishwasher. A dirty filter can cause a fire hazard. Use a soft cloth, never an abrasive sponge.

When should the activated carbon filter be replaced?

The activated carbon filter must be replaced at least once a year, especially if the hood is used in recirculation mode. It captures odors but slightly reduces suction power.

What to do if the hood does not work at all?

Check that the appliance is plugged in and the outlet is powered. If the bulb is burnt out, replace it with an LED of 220 V, 2 W max. If the problem persists, contact a qualified technician.

How to replace the LED bulb?

Turn off and unplug the hood. Unscrew the 2 screws of the lamp cover, then unscrew the LED bulb and replace it with an identical bulb (220 V, 2 W max).

Can I use the hood without external evacuation?

Yes, the hood can operate in recirculation mode with an activated carbon filter (not supplied). In this case, the air is filtered and returned to the room.

Is the hood compatible with all types of cooking?

This hood is designed for domestic use only and can be used above gas, electric, or induction cooktops, respecting the safety distance of 65-75 cm.

What to do if the hood vibrates strongly?

Vibrations may be due to a damaged blade or improper fixing. Check that the hood is properly installed on the bracket. If the problem persists, call a qualified technician.

How to contact Candy after-sales service?
