Frequently Asked Questions - HBVS985TX HOOVER

What is the recommended installation height between the hood and the cooking surface?

The distance must be between 65 and 75 cm for optimal operation.

How to clean the grease filter?

The grease filter should be cleaned every month with a mild household detergent or in the dishwasher. A dirty filter can reduce suction and pose a fire risk.

When should the activated charcoal filter be replaced?

The activated charcoal filter should be replaced at least once a year, or more often depending on usage. It is only necessary in recirculation mode (without external exhaust).

How to replace the LED bulb?

Unscrew the glass panel, disconnect the connector, then replace the bulb, socket, and cable assembly (LED max 1.5W). Reassemble in reverse order. It is impossible to replace only the bulb.

Why is my hood vibrating?

Possible causes are: blocked turbine, improperly fixed motor, or incorrect installation. Turn off the appliance and contact a professional.

Why is the suction weak?

Check the distance between the hood and cooking surface (should be between 65 and 75 cm), and clean the grease filter. A dirty charcoal filter can also reduce suction.

Can I use the hood without external exhaust?

Yes, in recirculation mode with an activated charcoal filter installed. In this case, the exhaust duct is not necessary.

Does the hood make noise?

The noise level is moderate thanks to the centrifugal fan and quality materials. Abnormal noise may indicate a mechanical problem.

How to set the timer?

Press and hold the Light/Timer button for 2-3 seconds to activate the quick timer (5 seconds). To cancel, press the button again or the ON/OFF button.

What to do if the light does not turn on?

Check that the bulb is not burnt out and replace it if necessary. Also ensure the power cord is plugged in and the hood is powered on.

MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning switch the unit off and pull out the plug.

I. Regular Cleaning

Use a soft cloth moistened with hand-warm mildly soapy water or household cleaning detergent. Never use metal pads, chemical, abrasive material or stiff brush to clean the unit.

II. Monthly Cleaning for Grease Filter

ESSENTIAL: Clean the filter every month can prevent any risk of fire.

The filter collects grease, smoke and dust..... so the filter is directly affecting the efficiency of the cooker hood. If not cleaned, the grease residue (potential flammable) will saturate on the filter. Clean it with household cleaning detergent.

III. Annual Cleaning for Activated Carbon Filter

Apply SOLELY to unit that installed as a recirculation unit (not vented to the outside). This filter traps odors and must be replaced at least once a year depending on how frequent the cooker hood used.

IV. Changing a light bulb

Remove the screws on the glass, take off the hood glass. Find the bulb that requires replacement, you will find it located in the light fixture which is inside the exposed section of the canopy.

Disconnect the light wiring point and remove the bulb holders and wiring from the hood. Important: It's not possible to replace the bulbs individually, it will be necessary to obtain the bulbs, bulb holders and wiring as a complete part. (LED light: MAX 1.5W)

Fit the replacement bulbs, bulb holders and wiring in the same manners as the originals. Then reconnect the light wiring point.

Refit the hood glass and fasten the glass screws. Make sure the screws are fully tightened.

PRODUCT SERIAL NUMBER. Where can I find it?

It is important you to inform the Assistance Service of your product code and its serial number (a 16 character code which begins with the number 3); this can be found on the guarantee certificate or on the data plate located on the appliance.

It will help to avoid wasted journeys to technicians, thereby (and most significantly) saving the corresponding callout charges.

This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).

WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause negative consequences for the environment) and basic components (which can be re-used). It is important to have WEEE subjected to specific

treatments, in order to remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and recover and recycle all materials.

Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE does not become an environmental issue; it is essential to follow some basic rules:

WEEE should not be treated as household waste;

WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection points managed by the municipality or by registered companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, home collection could be present.

In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one may be returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of equivalent type and has the same functions as the supplied equipment.
