Frequently Asked Questions - Modulo POP Airforce

How do I clean the grease filter?

Clean the metal grease filter once a month with a non-aggressive detergent, by hand or in a dishwasher at low temperature and short cycle. Dishwasher washing may cause discoloration but does not affect performance.

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

For electric cooking, the distance must be at least 50 cm. For gas or mixed cooking, it must be at least 65 cm. If the hob instructions specify a greater distance, follow that.

Can I use the hood in recirculation mode?

Yes, if external evacuation is not possible. You must then install an activated charcoal filter (not supplied) and the hood will recirculate fumes and vapors through the upper grille.

How do I replace the LED bulb?

The lamps are integrated LEDs. In case of malfunction, contact technical support to replace the entire lighting assembly.

How often should I replace the charcoal filter?

Under normal use, replace the activated charcoal filter every 6 months. It is neither washable nor recyclable.

What should I do if the hood does not turn on?

First check that the hood is plugged in and that the 30 mA residual current device has not tripped. Ensure the mains voltage matches that indicated on the label. If the problem persists, contact technical support.

Can I install the hood on a drywall wall?

Installation on a wall that cannot support the weight of the hood (such as drywall) is not recommended. Failure to comply may lead to risk of falling.

How can I reduce the environmental impact of the hood?

Use the lowest extraction speed suitable for cooking, do not leave the hood running for more than 15 minutes after turning off the burners, and turn off the lights when leaving the cooking area.

Is it safe to flambé food under the hood?

It is strictly forbidden to flambé food under the hood. The open flame can damage the filters and cause a fire.

Can the hood be used by children?

Children under 8 years old must not use the appliance. Children aged 8 to 14 and persons with reduced capabilities may use it under supervision and after understanding the safety instructions.
