Frequently Asked Questions - EFC60468OX ELECTROLUX

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

For an electric cooktop, the minimum distance is 50 cm. For a gas or mixed cooktop, it is 65 cm. If your cooking appliance instructions specify a greater distance, follow those.

How to clean the grease filter?

The grease filter should be cleaned once a month. You can wash it by hand with a mild detergent or in the dishwasher at low temperature and short cycle. Washing in the dishwasher may cause discoloration, but this does not affect its performance.

When should the charcoal filter be replaced?

The activated charcoal filter is non-washable and must be replaced at most every 4 months, or more often depending on usage and how regularly the grease filter is cleaned.

Can I use the hood without a charcoal filter?

Yes, if your hood is installed in external evacuation mode (exhausting fumes outside), the charcoal filter is not necessary. In internal recirculation mode, the charcoal filter is essential to purify the air before returning it to the room.

How to change the LED bulb?

The LED bulbs are integrated and cannot be replaced by the user. In case of failure, contact technical support for replacement.

The hood does not turn on, what to do?

First check that the hood is properly plugged in and that the main switch is not off. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

What is the maximum suction power?

The hood has 3 speeds plus an intensive speed. The maximum power corresponds to speed 3 (or intensive) and is suitable for high concentrations of steam.

Should the hood be run before and after cooking?

It is recommended to turn on the hood 5 minutes before starting cooking and to leave it running for 15 minutes after finishing to completely eliminate odors and steam.

Can I install the hood myself?

Installation must be carried out by a qualified professional. Any non-compliant installation may lead to electrical hazards. Follow the installation manual instructions strictly.

How to maintain the exterior of the hood?

Clean the exterior regularly with a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products or alcohol. Neglected maintenance may cause a fire hazard.
