Frequently Asked Questions - WHVF 92F LM X WHIRLPOOL

How to clean the grease filter of the hood?

The metal grease filter should be cleaned at least once a month. You can wash it by hand with a mild detergent or in the dishwasher on a low temperature and short cycle. Any discoloration does not affect its performance.

When should the charcoal filter be replaced?

For disposable charcoal filters, replace them every 4 months. For washable filters (if present), wash them every 2 months in hot water or in the dishwasher at 65°C, then dry them in the oven at 100°C for 10 minutes. Replace the mat every 3 years.

How to use the timer?

Press the T4 button to activate the timer. The duration depends on the selected speed: 20 min in speed 1, 15 min in speed 2, 10 min in speed 3. The timer does not work in Booster mode. Once the time has elapsed, the hood turns off automatically.

What is the Booster mode?

The Booster is a temporary maximum suction speed accessible from the third speed. Press T3 twice to activate it (the LED flashes). It stops automatically after 5 minutes. You can also switch to another speed to deactivate it.

How to reset the filter saturation indicator?

When the hood is off, if T1+T2 flash (grease filter) or T1+T3 (charcoal filter), press the corresponding buttons simultaneously within 10 seconds to reset. The LEDs will flash twice to confirm.

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

The minimum distance is 45 cm for electric cooktops and 65 cm for gas or mixed cooktops. Follow the hob manufacturer's instructions if a greater distance is specified.

Can the hood be used in recirculation mode?

Yes, your hood is delivered ready for external exhaust (extraction). To use it in recirculation mode, you must install a dedicated accessory kit containing a charcoal filter (sometimes already supplied). Follow the conversion instructions in the manual.

What to do if the hood does not work?

First check that there is no power outage, a speed is selected, and the plug is properly inserted. If it turned off, unplug it for 5 seconds then plug it back in. If the problem persists, contact customer support.

How to change the LED bulb?

Unplug the hood and wait for the bulb to cool down. Refer to the drawings section in the manual for the specific bulb type. Replace it with an identical bulb. Never use the hood without the bulb properly installed.

Can the hood be used with a gas cooktop?

Yes, but maintain a minimum distance of 65 cm between the hood and the cooking surface. Ensure the room is well ventilated if the hood is used simultaneously with other combustion appliances. Never flambé food under the hood.

Replacing the power cable

The hood features a special power cable; if the cable is damaged, contact the Service Centre for a replacement.

AIR OUTLET

(for suction versions)

Connect the hood to wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connecting flange).

The use of pipes and outlet holes in the wall with a smaller diameter will reduce the extraction performance and drastically increase the noise level.

All responsibility in this regard is therefore denied.

! Use a ducting pipe with the shortest length necessary.

! Use a ducting pipe with the least number of bends possible (maximum bend angle: 90°).

! Avoid drastic changes in the ducting pipe diameter.

! The company shall not be held responsible if these regulations are not complied with.

FILTRATION OR SUCTION?

! Your hood is read to be used in the suction version.

To use the hood in the filtration version, the special ACCESSORY KIT must be installed.

Check, on the first pages of this manual, whether the ACCESSORY KIT is already supplied or needs to be purchased separately.

Note: If supplied, in some cases, the additional activated carbon filtering system may already be installed on the hood.

Information on how to convert the hood from the suction version to the filtration version is already contained in this manual.

Extraction version

Vapours are evacuated outside through an exhaust pipe attached to the connecting flange.

ATTENTION

The evacuation pipe is not supplied and must be purchased.

The diameter of the exhaust pipe must be equivalent to the diameter of the connecting ring.

If the hood features one or more carbon filters, they must be removed.

Filtration version

The suctioned air will be degreased and deodorised before it is sent back into the room. To use the hood in this version, it is necessary to install an additional activated carbon filter system.

CONTROLS

The hood is equipped with a control panel with a suction speed control and a light control to light up the hob.

First speed (T1)

Press T1 to activate the first speed. When the function is activated, the LED turns on with a fixed light. Press T1 again to turn the hood off.

Second speed (T2)

Press T2 to activate the second speed. When the function is activated, the LED turns on with a fixed light. Press T2 again to turn the hood off.

Third speed and BOOSTER (T3)

When the hood is off or with the first or second speed active, the third speed can be activated by pressing the button T3 and the LED will turn on with a fixed light.

If T3 is pressed again, the booster turns on. The booster can only be activated if the third speed is already active. When the booster is on, the LED T3 starts to flash. While the booster is working, it is possible to switch to the first or second speed by pressing the desired speed button T1 or T2, the booster will turn off and the selected speed will be activated.

When the booster is on, press T3 again to turn the hood off.

After 5' the booster automatically turns off and the third speed is automatically activated.

Timer (T4)

The timer can be activated when the first, second or third speed is active. When the function is activated, both the LED of the Timer (T4) and that of the previously selected speed (T1/T2/T3) turn on with a fixed light.

The duration of the timer depends on the selected speed:

First speed T1 = duration 20'

Second speed T2 = duration 15'.

Third speed T3 = duration 10'.

The timer cannot be activated when the booster is active. When the time expires, the hood turns off. When a speed is timed, it is possible to switch to other speeds by pressing the desired speed button, this operation will turn the timer off. When a speed is timed, the timer can be deactivated by pressing T4, or one of the other two inactive speeds. To turn the hood off, press the speed again to which the timer had previously been linked.

Light (T5)

The light can be activated at any time by pressing key T5. When the function is activated, the LED turns on with a fixed light.

Filter setting

Activation or deactivation of the filter indicators is only possible with the hood off.

To access the configuration menu, hold pressed T2+T3, once inside the menu T1 will start to flash.

The default setting is:

- grease filter indicator (T2) on, therefore active;

- odour filter indicator (T3) off, therefore not activated.

T2 activates/deactivates the grease filter indicator. T3 activates/deactivates the odour filter indicator. To exit the menu, hold pressed

T1 or wait 10"

Filter reset

The hood signals the need for filter maintenance at regular intervals:

- grease filter every 40 hours;

- odour filter every 160 hours.

In this case, with the hood off, when the user touches any button the interface signals two types of needs for a period of 10":

- if T1+T2 flash: grease filter maintenance;

- if T1+T3 flash: odour filter maintenance.

During the 10" it is possible to reset the grease filter by pressing T1+T2 and to reset the odour filter by pressing T1+T3. After the reset, the button combinations will flash rapidly twice. The interface will now work as normal.

Please note:

During the 10", the hood will work normally but without any visual feedback regarding the speed buttons. If during the 10" no operations are carried out, the LEDs will stop flashing and the visual feedback will return to normal.

MAINTENANCE

- Cleaning: For cleaning, simply use a cloth moistened with neutral liquid detergents. Do not use cleaning tools or instruments.

XA Anti-Grease Filter: It must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter saturation indication system - if any - indicates the need for it), with non-aggressive detergents, either by hand or in a dishwasher at a low temperature and on a short cycle.

When cleaned in the dishwasher, the metal grease filter may discolour, but its filtering characteristics remain unchanged.

- Washable activated carbon filter (for filter version only):

The carbon filter can be washed every two months (or when indicated by the filter saturation system - if included in your model). As indicated in the drawing section: remove the grease filter, remove the carbon filter and wash using hot water and suitable detergents or in a dishwasher at 65^ C (if washing in a dishwasher, carry out the complete washing cycle without dishes inside). Remove any excess water without damaging the filter, then place it in the oven for 10 minutes at 100^ C to dry it out completely. Put the anti-grease filters back in place. Replace the foam layer every 3 years and each time the cloth appears damaged.

- The Anti-Grease Filter traps the grease particles produced during cooking. When cleaned in the dishwasher, the metal grease filter may discolour, but its filtering characteristics remain unchanged.

- Carbon filter (for filter version only): The cartridge must be replaced at least every four months. It CANNOT be washed or regenerated. As indicated in the drawings section: remove the anti-grease filters, apply a carbon filter on each side and attach it to the product. Put the anti-grease filters back in place.

Illumination

- The lighting system is based on LED technology. LEDs provide optimal illumination, last up to 10 times longer than conventional lamps and save 90% of electricity.

- Lamp Replacement : Disconnect the product from the electrical power supply. Please note! Before touching the lamps, make sure they have cooled. For the type of lamp to use, see the indications in the drawings section.
