This range hood should be turned on for a few minutes before cooking in order to
establish air currents upward through the range hood. This will also enable hot air
removal from your kitchen and keep the range hood surface cool. When heat, smoke,
moisture, grease and cooking odors are produced, they will be carried outside instead
of drifting into other rooms.
Use the low fan speeds for normal use and the higher fan speeds for high heat,
strong odors or fumes.
Range hood width
The range hood width is recommended to be no less than the width of the cooktop.
●
●
A wider range hood can be used to increase the capture area if space is not restricted.
●
●
The range hood should ideally be centered above the cooktop for proper performance.

Induction cooking considerations
Induction cooktops use energy efficient technology that only heats the contents
of a cooking pot. Unlike gas or traditional electric cooktops, the surrounding air
does not get heated when using an induction cooktop. As a result, range hood
filters, splashbacks and surrounding cabinetry do not get warmed up, increasing
the likelihood of condensation on these cooler surfaces. Other factors like ambient
temperature, humidity, natural ventilation of the room, size of the cookware
and how the induction cooktop is being used also influence condensation.
For example, aggressive boiling on high cooktop heat settings like PowerBoost
increases the rate at which water is evaporated, increasing the likelihood of
condensation. It is important to understand that neither the range hood nor the
induction cooktop are faulty as a result of this phenomenon.
Condensation can be minimized by:
Installing the range hood at the maximum height above the cooktop.
●
●
Using the range hood on a lower speed setting when boiling.
●
●
Using the induction cooktop on a lower heat setting when boiling.
●
●
Switching the range hood on 5 minutes before cooking and letting it run for
●
●
at least 5 minutes after cooking. Refer to the 'Delayed shut off' section for
details on how to use the timed shut off feature of this range hood.
Gas cooking considerations
Using a powerful gas cooktop or multiple gas burners operating at the same
time can cause the range hood surfaces to become hot. This effect can be
reduced by:
– Using the maximum speed setting to enable hot air to be extracted quickly.
– Installing the range hood at the maximum recommended height.
Consult the cooktop installation and user guide for details on the
installation height of the range hood.
