Frequently Asked Questions - HGM900X HOOVER

How do I install the HGM900X range hood?

Installation must be done by a qualified professional. Ensure the hood is mounted at least 65 cm above the cooking surface for electric hobs and 75 cm for gas hobs. Use the provided template and fixings. For ducted mode, connect the exhaust pipe to an external vent. For recirculating mode, install charcoal filters.

How often should I clean the grease filters?

Clean the aluminum grease filters every 2-3 months or more frequently with heavy use. They can be washed in a dishwasher or by hand with mild detergent. Allow them to dry completely before reinserting.

What should I do if the hood is not extracting properly?

Check if the grease filters are clogged and clean them. Ensure the duct is not blocked or kinked. Verify that the charcoal filter (if used) is replaced every 6-12 months. Also, make sure the room is well-ventilated to avoid negative pressure.

Can I use the hood in recirculation mode?

Yes, the HGM900X can be used in recirculation mode. You need to install a charcoal filter (sold separately) to absorb odors. The recirculated air is returned to the kitchen.

How do I replace the LED lights?

The LED lights are built-in and should only be replaced by a qualified technician. Contact Hoover support or a certified repair service.

What is the noise level of this hood?

The noise level varies by speed: typically 55 dB at low speed and up to 65 dB at maximum speed. It is considered moderately quiet for a range hood.

How do I pair the remote control (if applicable)?

This model does not come with a remote control. It is operated via the touch control panel on the hood itself.

My hood displays an error code. What does it mean?

Error codes vary. Common ones: E1 indicates a motor fault, E2 a sensor issue. Refer to the user manual for specific codes. If the problem persists, contact customer support.

What is the warranty period for Hoover HGM900X?

The standard warranty is 2 years from the date of purchase. Register your product on the Hoover website to extend coverage or for details.

Can I wash the charcoal filter?

INSTALLATION(VENTOUTSIDE)

MOUNTINGOFTHEV-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. Put the glass according to the lead direction and way on the cooker hood, and then use 4pcs screws + gasket + wall plugs to fix the glass.See pic 3.
3. Equip the v-flap and expansion pipe, fix the expansion pipe with cable tie. See pic 4. And then put the cooker hood on the hook. See pic 5.

1. Install the outside chimney bracket onto the outside chimney with 2pcs ST4*8mm screws, here should be sure the inside chimney can be moved inside freely. See pic 6. After adjust the height, fix the body with 2 pcs ST4*30mm safety screws. Then put the two chimneys together onto the cooker hood body, also lead the expansion pipe outside of the room. See Pic 7.

1. Adjust the height of the inside chimney into the suitable height, and fix the inside chimney to the inside chimney bracket by 2pcs ST4*8mm screws. See Pic 8.

Note: The two safety vents are positioned on the back housing, with diameter of 6mm.

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^irc ; 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.
