HOW TO USE

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Your AirHood sucks in cooking fumes and filters them. The oil filter extracts grease particles, and the charcoal filter removes smoke and toxic fumes. The purified air is then passed through the air diffuser on the back keeping your kitchen clean and odour-free. The AirHood performs best when used with one or two hobs.

1. Connect to the power source. Insert the plug into the mains socket.

2. Place the AirHood on a stable, horizontal surface.
   OPTIMAL POSITION

3. If purchased, we recommend using the Base Boost accessory when cooking with large pots or pressure cookers to maximise the suction potential of the AirHood. To attach the Base Boost to the AirHood, align the 4 nodules on the Base Boost with the grooves on the bottom of the AirHood, and then twist the base anticlockwise until it locks into place.

4. 4. Slide the power switch to the desired setting:
   SETTING| MEANING|
   ---|---|---
   I| Low| Quiet operation
   II| Medium| Optimal effectiveness, noise-compromise
   III| High| Maximum power
   O| Off|

5. When you are not using the AirHood, make sure the power switch is in the off position O and make sure it is disconnected from the power supply.

6. Stow your AirHood on a countertop or hang it up and create more space.

CLEANING AND CARE

Note

• Do not use solvents, chemical or abrasive cleaning agents, wire brushes, sharp objects or scouring pads to clean the AirHood.
• Never immerse the AirHood main body, charger/power cord in water.

The AirHood is designed to make cleaning quick and easy. To keep your AirHood in tip top condition, we recommend that you clean the main unit and the oil filter after each use and change the charcoal filter after every 100 hours of use.

WARNING

Make sure the power switch is in the off position O and that the AirHood is disconnected from the power supply.

1. The air duct is fixed into place with magnets. Simply pull the tab on the top of the air duct to release and remove it. Similarly, pull the tab on the air diffuser on the back of the AirHood and remove it.

2. The oil filter is attached to the back of the air duct. It comprises 2 parts, the stainless steel mesh and the frame that holds the mesh in place. Turn the oil filter frame anticlockwise to remove it from the air duct. Then, pop out the wire mesh.
   TIP: When reassembling the oil filter, make sure you put the mesh into the oil filter frame, align the frame with the groves on the air duct and then twist the oil filter frame clockwise until the two parts slot firmly together.
   If the charcoal filter becomes a bit wet (this may happen when it is used for filtering water vapour), remove the charcoal filter and let it dry naturally away from the AirHood. We recommend that you also check the oil filter for moisture and if necessary dry
   it with a towel. Only reassemble when both filters are completely dry.

3. If it is time to change the charcoal filter, lift out the old one and replace after cleaning the main body.
   TIP: When you handle the charcoal filter, you may see some carbon / charcoal residues (little black specks), this is normal and does not mean that the charcoal filter is degrading. When inserting a new filter. Make sure the filter is tucked behind the two clips that hold it in place.

4. Clean the main body with a damp soft cloth.

5. Clean the air duct, oil filter and air diffuser using a mild detergent and soft cloth. Only the oil filter is dishwasher safe. Do not put any other parts in a dishwasher.

6. Dry all parts thoroughly and reassemble the AirHood.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

• If you are not using the AirHood for a long period, always clean and store it in its original packaging in a dust-free, dry environment.
• Coil the power cord and plug and insert into the cord storage area.
