Frequently Asked Questions - UXT5230ADS KITCHENAID

How to clean the hood filters?

Clean the metal filters frequently with soapy water or in the dishwasher. Use a non-corrosive degreaser for tough residue. Make sure they are dry before reinstalling.

How to change the hood light bulb?

Wait until the bulb is cool and power is off. Turn it counterclockwise to remove. Use a suction cup if stuck. Replace with a standard type bulb available at stores.

My hood is making an abnormal noise, what should I do?

Check that filters are properly installed and clean. Make sure nothing is blocking the exhaust duct. If noise persists, contact customer service.

How to clean the grease cup?

Unscrew the inlet panels under the hood, remove the cup, clean it by hand with a degreaser or in the dishwasher. Replace it when dry before using the hood.

The hood does not turn on, what to check?

Check the electrical supply (circuit breaker, outlet). Ensure the speed or light switch is in the on position. If problem persists, contact after-sales service.

What is the warranty for the KitchenAid UXT5230ADS hood?

The warranty is one year (parts and labor) from the date of purchase. It covers defects under normal household use.

Can I install the hood myself?

No, installation must be done by a qualified installer due to electrical and safety risks. Do not attempt to install it yourself.

How to use the self-cleaning function?

This model (UXT5230ADS) does not have a self-cleaning function. Only models UXT5430/5436 are equipped with it. To clean, use a degreaser and wash the filters and cup regularly.

Why is the hood not capturing fumes well?

Check that filters are clean and the fan speed is appropriate (high speed for heavy cooking). Ensure the exhaust duct is not blocked.

In the United States, call 1-800-688-9900. In Canada, dial 1-800-688-2002. Have your model number and proof of purchase handy.

USE AND CARE GUIDE

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

WARNING

Installation

The installation in this manual is intended for qualified installers, service technicians or persons with similar qualified background. DO NOT attempt to install this appliance yourself. Injury could result from installing the unit due to lack of appropriate electrical and technical background.

All electrical wiring must be properly installed, insulated and grounded. Overly accumulated grease in old duct work should be cleaned out or duct work should be replaced if necessary to avoid the possibility of a grease fire. Check all joints on duct work to insure proper connection and all joints should be properly taped.

Operations

Read all instructions in this manual before operating the appliance. Save these instructions for future reference.

Always leave safety grills and filters in place. Without these components, operating blowers could catch on to hair, fingers and loose clothing.

NEVER dispose cigarette ashes, ignitable substances, or any foreign objects into blowers.

NEVER leave cooking unattended. When frying, oil in the pan can easily overheat and catch fire. The risk of self combustion is higher when the oil has been used several times.

Cleaning

The saturation of greasy residue in the blower and filters may cause increased flammability. Keep unit clean and free of grease and residue build-up at all times to prevent possible fires.

Filters must be cleaned periodically and free from accumulation of cooking residue (see cleaning instructions inside). Old and worn filters must be replaced immediately. Do not operate blowers when filters are removed. Never disassemble parts to clean without proper instructions. Disassembly is recommended to be performed by qualified personnel only. Call our service center for removal instructions. 1-800-688-9900 (USA), 1-800-688-2002 (Canada)

The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of failure to observe the instructions given here for installation, maintenance and suitable use of the product. The manufacturer further declines all responsibility for injury due to negligence and the warranty of the unit automatically expires due to improper maintenance.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

SELF CLEAN FEATURE

Using Self Cleaning:

WARNING: Use only non-corrosive & non-abrasive grease cutting detergents. DO NOT USE OVEN CLEANERS.

Models UXT5230AD* & UXT5236AD* hoods are designed with a self cleaning feature. The centrifugal blower system automatically liquefies cooking residue accumulated in its internal housing, and deposits the residue in the cleaning cup. Nevertheless, grease from cooking can also dry and adhere in the internal housing. Running the self clean function periodically will flush out accumulated residue in the range hood's internal housing.

Cleaning Frequency:

Cleaning should be completed approximately once a month under normal use.

Detergent:

Non-corrosive, non-abrasive grease cutting spray detergents are recommended.

Self Clean:

Turn blower on lowest speed for cleaning.

With nozzle on 'spray', squirt the grease cutting detergent through the safety grill, directly onto blower blades 10-15 times.

Allow self cleaning to complete for 5 minutes, turn blower off.

Remove cleaning cup. Clean w/ mild detergent or in dishwasher under normal wash cycle.

(If desired, repeat above steps with water to rinse out detergent)
