Frequently Asked Questions - BUGL900BK/A+ Cookology

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

The minimum distance is 65 cm for gas hobs and 65-75 cm for electric hobs. Refer to the installation instructions for exact measurements.

How often should the grease mesh filters be cleaned?

Clean the grease filters regularly, at least once a month. Soak them in warm water with mild detergent for 3 minutes, then gently brush and dry naturally away from direct sunlight.

When should the carbon filter be replaced?

Activated carbon filters should be replaced every 3 to 6 months, depending on cooking habits. They are not supplied with the hood and must be purchased separately.

How do I replace the LED lights?

First, disconnect the appliance from the power supply. Remove the outer glass frame by unscrewing 4 screws, pull out the wire connectors, then unscrew the light bracket. Replace with 2 x 1.5W DC 12V LED modules (ILCOS D code: DSS-1.5/65-S-120/33). Reassemble in reverse order.

The light works but the motor does not run. What could be the issue?

Check the fan switch position; ensure it is not turned off. If the switch is on and the motor still does not run, the fan switch or motor may be faulty. Contact service center for assistance.

Neither the light nor the motor works. What should I check?

First, check the house fuses; reset or replace if blown. Then inspect the mains power cable; ensure it is securely plugged into the outlet and the outlet is switched on. If problems persist, contact a qualified electrician.

How do I set the timer function?

While the hood is operating, press the Timer button. The default time is 9 minutes, and the LED display will count down. The hood will automatically shut off when the timer ends. Press Timer again to cancel.

Can I use the cooker hood in recirculation mode?

Yes, if you install an activated carbon filter (not included). This allows the hood to recirculate filtered air back into the kitchen. Note that suction power will be reduced with carbon filters.

How do I register the warranty for my Cookology range hood?

Register your product online at www.Cookology.com. You will need the model number (BUGL900BK/A+) and proof of purchase.

How should I dispose of the cooker hood at the end of its life?

Do not dispose of it with household waste. Follow local regulations for WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment). Contact your local authority or retailer for recycling options.

  ● The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels. Cooker hoods and other cooking fume extractors may adversely affect the safe operation of appliances burning gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to back flow of combustion gases. These gases can potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After installation of a cooker hood or other cooking

fume extractor, the operation of open flued gas appliances should be tested by a competent person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur.
