Frequently Asked Questions - HCV61/2C HOOVER

What is the minimum installation height for the cooker hood above a gas hob?

For gas cookers, the minimum distance between the hob support surface and the lowest part of the hood is 75 cm. For electric cookers it is 65 cm.

How do I clean the grease mesh filters?

Remove the mesh filters and soak them in warm water with a grease-loosening detergent for about 3 minutes. Gently brush with a soft brush, rinse, and dry naturally out of direct sunlight. Do not use rinse aid.

How often should I replace the carbon filter?

Activated carbon filters should be replaced every 3 to 6 months depending on cooking habits. They are not supplied with the hood.

The motor does not run but the lights work. What could be wrong?

Possible causes: the fan switch is turned off, the fan switch is faulty, or the motor is defective. Check the switch position and contact service center if needed.

How do I replace the LED bulb?

Switch off and unplug the hood. Wait for the bulb to cool. Unscrew the glass cover, pull out the lamp wire, push the LED light out, press the clamp to remove it, then insert a new 2W LED bulb (ILCOS DBR-2/65-H-64). Reattach the glass.

Can I use the hood without the grease filters?

No, never operate the cooker hood without the grease filters or with excessively greasy filters. This can cause damage and fire risk.

What type of ducting is recommended?

Use an extraction duct of 150 mm diameter (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe, or fire retardant material). Keep the duct short and straight with no bends sharper than 90 degrees.

The hood is leaking oil. What should I check?

Check if the one-way valve and outlet are tightly sealed. If not, take down the valve and seal with sealant. Also inspect chimney connections for leaks.

Can I use a steam cleaner to clean the hood?

No, a steam cleaner must not be used. Use a soft cloth with warm soapy water for the control panel and stainless steel surfaces.

What is the appropriate disposal method for this product?

This product must not be disposed of with household waste. Follow local regulations for separate collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) to minimize environmental impact.

MOUNTING OF THE V-FLAP

If the cooker hood does not have an assembled V-flap 1, you should mount the half-parts to its body. The images only show an example of how to mount the V-flap, the outlet may be various according to different models and configuration.

To mount the V-flap 1 you should:

• Mount two half-parts 2 into the body 6
• a pin 3 should be top oriented;
• the axis 4 should be inserted in the holes 5 on body;
• repeat all the operations for the 2nd half-part

INSTALLATION

If you have an outlet to the outside, your cooker hood can be connected as below picture by means of an extraction duct (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe or inflammable material with an interior diameter of 150mm)

1. Before installation, turn the unit off and unplug it from the outlet.

1. The cooker hood should be placed at a distance of 65\~75cm above the cooking surface for best effect.

1. Install the hook on a suitable place once the installation height is fixed, and keep it in line. The fixed position of the inside chimney bracket is the place of chimney. See pic 2.
2. Attach the expansion pipe onto the one-way-valve as shown below, and fix the pipe on the valve by cable tie. And then put the cooker hood on the hook. See pic 3. After adjust the height, fix the body with 2 pcs ST4*30mm safety screws. See Pic 4.

HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION

The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:

• Keep expansion pipe short and straight.
• Do not reduce the size or restrict expansion pipe.

• When using expansion pipe always install the pipe pulled taut to minimize pressure loss.

• Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and increase noise levels of the cooker hood.

• Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
• Do not connect the ducting system of the hood to any existing ventilation system which is being used for any other appliance, such as warmer tube, gas tube, hot wind tube.
• The angle of the bend of the expansion pipe should not be less than 120^ ; you must direct the pipe horizontally, or, alternatively, the pipe should go up from the initial point and should be led to an outer wall.
  •After the installation, make sure that the cooker hood is level to avoid grease collection at on end.
• Ensure the expansion pipe selected for installation complies with relevant standards and is fire retardant.
