Frequently Asked Questions - QFT60211W Husqvarna-Electrolux

How do I clean the grease filter?

The grease filter should be cleaned once a month. You can wash it by hand with a neutral detergent or in a dishwasher at a low temperature and short cycle. Always allow the filter to dry completely before reinstalling.

How often should I replace the charcoal filter?

The activated charcoal filter must be replaced every 4 months, or more often if you cook heavily. It cannot be washed or regenerated.

Why is the filter saturation indicator flashing?

The 1st speed LED (with F LED) flashing indicates the grease filter needs cleaning. The 2nd speed LED flashing indicates the charcoal filter needs replacement. After cleaning or replacing, press the A button for 3 seconds to reset the indicator.

How do I enable the charcoal filter indicator?

With the hood off, press and hold buttons B and D simultaneously for 3 seconds. The LED F will light, then the 1st and 2nd speed LEDs will flash, followed by a beep. This activates the charcoal filter saturation monitoring.

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

For electric hobs, the minimum distance is 43 cm. For gas or mixed hobs, it must be at least 65 cm. Always follow the hob manufacturer's instructions if they specify a greater distance.

Can I use the hood without a charcoal filter?

Yes, if you are using the ducted (external evacuation) mode, you do not need a charcoal filter. The hood comes without it. Only fit a charcoal filter if using recirculation mode.

What should I do if the controls are not working?

Disconnect the power supply for at least 5 seconds, then reconnect and turn on the hood. If the problem persists, contact technical service.

How do I change the LED light?

The hood uses LED lights. Replacement should be carried out by a qualified technician. Contact Husqvarna-Electrolux service for assistance.

What is the intensive speed and how does it work?

Press the D button to activate intensive speed. It runs at maximum power for 5 minutes, then automatically returns to the previous speed (or turns off if the hood was off). To cancel intensive speed, press A or B.
