Frequently Asked Questions - AT1460X BRANDT

How do I install the Brandt AT1460X range hood?

Installation should be done by a qualified professional. Ensure the hood is mounted at a minimum height of 65 cm above the cooking surface for electric hobs and 75 cm for gas hobs. Follow the included manual for wall mounting and electrical connections.

How often should I clean the grease filter?

The aluminum grease filter should be cleaned every month under normal usage. Wash it with warm soapy water or in a dishwasher; ensure it is completely dry before reinstalling.

Does this range hood support recirculation mode?

Yes, the AT1460X can operate in recirculation mode if an activated carbon filter is installed. This is ideal when external ducting is not possible.

Why is my range hood making a lot of noise?

Noise can increase if the grease filter is dirty or if there is an obstruction in the exhaust duct. Clean the filter and check the duct for blockages. If noise persists, contact support.

How do I replace the light bulb?

Disconnect the hood from power. Remove the bulb cover (usually a clip or screw). Replace the bulb with a compatible type (e.g., 40W halogen or LED equivalent). Reattach the cover and restore power.

What is the maximum airflow?

The maximum airflow is approximately 600 m³/h. This varies depending on ducting resistance and fan speed.

Can I use the range hood without the grease filter?

No, the hood must always be used with the grease filter in place. Operating without it can damage the motor and reduce efficiency.

How do I activate the optional auto shutoff timer?

Some models include a timer function. Refer to your manual for specific controls; typically, press and hold the speed button for 3 seconds to set a 10-minute shutdown.

Where can I purchase spare parts?

Spare parts like filters and bulbs can be purchased from authorized Brandt dealers or online spare parts stores. Check the model number AT1460X for compatibility.

What is the warranty period?

The Brandt AT1460X comes with a standard 2-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Register your product to activate warranty.

Filter Cleaning

To withdraw the filters from their locations release the anchoring points. Clean the filter either putting in the dishwasher (refer to notes) or leaving it standing in hot water to simplify the removal of grease or, if wished, by means of special sprays (protecting the non metallic parts). Once clean, leave it to dry. Notes: cleaning in the dishwasher with aggressive detergents may blacken the surface of metallic parts, without this affecting its gas retaining properties. The filter must be cleaned at least once a month depending on how often the appliances is used. It must be remembered that grease is deposited in the extractor when cooking, whether it is switched on or not.

** before using, please take note to remove the plastic wrapping and fix back the circular charcoal filter after the wrapper has been removed.

Cleaning the appliances body

The use of (40°C approx.) soapy water is recommended. A cloth moistened in this water is used for cleaning the extractor, paying special attention to the grids. Afterwards, dry it using a lint-free cloth.

Note: Never use metallic scouring pads or abrasive products that could damage the surface. Do not use scrapers with metallic surfaces such as knives, scissors etc.

Installation

To fix the extractor to the kitchen unit.

The lower part of the extractor must be located at a minimum height of 65cm above the hob for electric cookers and 65cm for gas cookers. If the instructions of a gas cooker indicate a greater distance these must be observed.

When the extractor is working at the same time as other non-electrical cooking equipment, the outlet air pressure must not exceed 4 Pa.

To achieve optimum performance the length of the outlet hose should not exceed 2 meters, or include more than two 90 angles (elbows)

Although venting to the outside is recommended, activated carbon filters may be used, which allow the gas to be returned to the kitchen through the outlet pipe.

Instructions for use

By pressing the button shown in the below, you will be able to control the functions of the extractor.

To achieve better extraction, we recommend switching on the extractor a few minutes before starting to cook (3—5 minutes) so that the air flow is continuous and stable when extracting fumes.

Likewise, keep the extractor switched on for a few minutes when cooking is complete to allow all fumes and odors to be expelled.
