Frequently Asked Questions - TAFR90S DELONGHI

What is the recommended installation height for the range hood?

For optimal performance, install the hood at a height of 65-75 cm above the cooking surface for electric hobs and 75-85 cm for gas hobs.

How often should I clean the grease filters?

Clean the aluminum grease filters every 2-3 months or more frequently if used heavily. Wash them by hand with mild detergent or in the dishwasher.

Why is my range hood noisy?

Noise may increase if the filters are clogged or if the ductwork is obstructed. Check and clean the filters, and ensure the duct is clear. The normal noise level is up to 65 dB at maximum speed.

Can I use the hood without ducting?

Yes, the hood can be used in recirculation mode by installing a charcoal filter (sold separately). This filter absorbs odors and must be replaced every 3-6 months.

How do I replace the LED lights?

The LED lights are integrated and should be replaced by a qualified technician. Contact DeLonghi customer service for assistance.

What should I do if the motor does not start?

First, check that the power cord is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. If the issue persists, the control board or motor may be faulty - contact professional service.

How do I reset the filter saturation indicator?

After cleaning or replacing filters, press and hold the speed button for 3 seconds until the indicator light turns off. Refer to the manual for exact procedure.

Is the range hood compatible with halogen hobs?

Yes, the hood is safe to use above halogen, electric, and gas hobs. Ensure proper clearance as per installation guide.

What is the warranty period and how can I claim it?

• WARNING: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.

Installation Method

The rangehood is designed to be installed in Re-Circulating Method only. The Carbon Filter supplied with the rangehood must always be fitted. The cooking fumes are filtered and then pushed back out again.

• Remove the Cover tape (H) from front vents to allow front Re-Circulation.
• Seal the rear and top vents with caps (G).
• The Carbon filter is not washable; they cannot be regenerated and has to be replaced at most every 2 months.
• The saturation of the activated charcoal depends on the frequency of use of the hood, on the type of cooking and on the regularity of cleaning the grease filter.
• The carbon filter has to be fitted inside the hood. Push it into place until the stop click is heard to lock it. Fix with the knob (A).
• Replace the grids (D) see Fig 2 to carry out this operation.

To replace the Carbon Filter:

• Open the grids (D)
• Remove the old Carbon Filter (C).
• Insert the new filter (C) with the knob (A).
• Reinstall the grids (D).

• Switch off the appliance by sliding the switch (C-2) from position '1' to '0'
• LED (C-4) will be lit up when the fan motor operates.

Note: You can change speed during operation.

Maintenance

The effective functioning of the hood depends on the regularity with which cleaning and maintenance is carried out. Particularly in the case of the Grids (D) and Carbon filter (C).

The grids (D) serve the function of catching the fat and solid particles suspended in the air. It is thus subject to clogging at various intervals, depending on use and the type of cooking. In any case, it is necessary to clean the grid at least every two months as follows:

• Remove the grid and wash it with a solution of lukewarm water and neutral liquid detergent, allowing the dirt to soften.
• Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
• Failure to follow the washing instructions can create a fire risk.

Carbon Filters

• The activated charcoal in the Carbon filter has the function of trapping odours and purifying the air. The saturation of the activated charcoal occurs after more or less prolonged use: depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.
• In any case it is necessary to replace the filter at least every four months. Clean frequently all the deposits on the fan and the other surfaces, utilising a cloth moistened by neutral and non abrasive liquid detergent.

Changing the Bulbs

• Disconnect the hood from the electricity.
• Remove the lamp cover.
• Always replace burnt-out lamps, according to what is provided for your appliance, with olive shaped Max. 40W bulbs.
  • Re-close the lamp cover.
