Frequently Asked Questions - B68 MIDEA

How do I install the Midea B68 range hood?

Install the range hood horizontally above the hob at least 60 cm above gas hobs. Secure the installation plate to the wall, hang the hood, and fasten with screws. Connect the exhaust pipe and check valve. Ensure compliance with local air discharge regulations.

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

For gas hobs, the minimum distance is 60 cm. For electric hobs, follow the installation diagram (typically 780-850 mm). Always refer to your hob's installation instructions.

How does the gesture control work?

Wave your palm from left to right (or right to left) near the sensor to turn the hood on or off. Ensure the gesture function is enabled by pressing the gesture button on the control panel.

How do I use the steam washing function?

Remove the oil cup, fill the water cup with purified or distilled water, and connect the tube to the water inlet. Press and hold the steam washing button for 3 seconds to start. The process includes 12 minutes washing and 3 minutes drying. Avoid touching hot surfaces.

Why is my range hood not working?

First, check the power supply. Unplug and reconnect. If the issue persists, ensure the circuit breaker is not tripped. For light or motor failure, contact after-sales service.

How do I replace the LED light?

The LED light is integrated and should be replaced by a qualified technician. Contact the manufacturer or a service agent to avoid electrical hazard.

What should I do if oil leaks from the hood?

Check if the oil cup is properly installed or full. Empty the oil cup. If leakage continues, the internal oil path may be blocked; professional cleaning is required.
