The remote control uses a radio frequency system that enables the hood’s functions to be controlled up to a distance of 8 metres (this distance can be reduced if the signal is disrupted by a wall and/or furniture, or if the batteries are almost dead).
When a button is activated on the remote control, the LED will light on the remote control.
When using the remote control for the first time, the accompanying battery must be inserted first:

Remove the protective film that surrounds the battery.
Remove the battery cover on the bottom of the remote control by loosening the small clip.
Insert the battery. NOTE: take care to position the battery correctly.
Replace the battery cover on the remote control.
The remote control is now ready for use.

As a radio frequency system is used between the remote control and the hood, the two units must be coupled up to each other. The manufacturer has already coupled the hood up to the remote control when you receive it. The connection between the two units can however be lost, and must subsequently be coupled back together again.
This is done in the following steps

Ensure that the remote control is ready for use and the batteries are correctly inserted.
Switch off the mains power to the hood (it is not enough for the light and extraction on the hood are turned off).
Reconnect the power to the hood.
Click the “PAIR” button behind the battery cover on the remote. This must be done within 8 seconds of the power being reconnected to the hood.
If coupling is done correctly, the remote control will start to control the hood’s functions.
If the coupling fails, start the process again.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Always disconnect power before cleaning.
The hood must be cleaned regularly to ensure optimal operation and long service life.
Grease and dust debris are collected in the filter and may risk igniting with insufficient cleaning.
The hood should be cleaned inside and out frequently to avoid grease stains on walls or other surfaces.

DAILY CLEANING

For cupboard-integrated, free-hanging and wall-mounted hoods, Thermex recommends that the grease filter be wiped with a damp cloth after each cooking session. It requires very little effort every day to keep your cooker hood clean and effective.
Steel surfaces are cleaned with a damp cloth with detergent and treated with 3M Polish.
Lacquered surfaces should be cleaned with a damp cloth with detergent/washing-up liquid. Never use abrasives.

CLEANING THE GREASE FILTERS
Grease filters should be cleaned as needed. Thermex recommends as a minimum that the filter is cleaned at the following intervals, depending on the fat used for frying:

Frying margarine – filter cleaned every 3 weeks
Liquid margarine – filter cleaned every 2 weeks
Oil – filter cleaned once per week
Deep fat frying – filter cleaned 2-3 times per week

The grease filters are cleaned in the following way:

Open the glass door
Remove the grease filter behind the glass plate and the filter in the base by pulling on the filter-locking mechanism to loosen the filter from the hood.
Place the filters in warm soapy water and clean if necessary with a soft brush.
Rinse with warm water.
Leave the filters to dry on a dishcloth or similar.
Repeat the process if necessary.
Re-attach the filters..

The filters can also be washed in the dishwasher, although please note that machine washing can result in discolouration of the filters. Discolouration of the filters does not affect performance.
REPLACING THE RECIRCULATION FILTERS
If recirculation filters are used, these cannot be washed, but must be replaced when needed. Thermex recommends that the recirculation filters are replaced at least 2-4 times per year.
