2. Drill holes and insert wall plugs.
3. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall.
4. Carefully lift and attach the range hood to the mounting bracket.
5. Connect the exhaust ducting for extraction mode, or install carbon filters for recirculation mode.

Electrical Connection

The range hood operates on AC power at 220V and has a power consumption of 110W. Ensure the electrical connection is made by a qualified electrician.

Operating Instructions

The Comfee CHL03M21S features intuitive push-button controls for ease of use.

Control Panel

The control panel consists of mechanical push buttons. Simply press the desired button for the corresponding function.

Airflow Modes

Your range hood supports two operating modes:

• Extraction Mode (Duct Outlet): Air is drawn from the kitchen, filtered, and expelled outside through a ducting system. This mode is highly effective for removing odors, smoke, and grease.
• Recirculation Mode (Internal with Carbon Filter): Air is drawn from the kitchen, filtered through both the grease filter and a carbon filter to remove odors, and then recirculated back into the kitchen. This mode is suitable when external venting is not possible.

Airflow Capacity

The range hood provides a powerful airflow capacity of 400 m³/h, effectively eliminating unpleasant odors, fumes, and grease from your kitchen.

LED Lighting

Activate the integrated LED lighting for improved visibility over your cooking area.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your range hood.

Cleaning the Grease Filters

The 4-layer aluminum grease filters effectively capture grease and solid particles. To maintain performance, the filters can be easily removed for cleaning. They can be washed by hand with hot soapy water or in a dishwasher.

1. Ensure the range hood is turned off and unplugged.
2. Locate the filter release clips and unlatch them.
3. Carefully remove the grease filters.
4. Clean the filters thoroughly.
5. Allow filters to dry completely before re-installing.

Cleaning the Stainless Steel Housing

The stainless steel casing is resistant to rust and corrosion and is easy to clean. Use a soft cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that could scratch the surface.

Replacing Carbon Filters (for Recirculation Mode)

If using recirculation mode, the carbon filters (not included, sold separately) should be replaced periodically, typically every 3-6 months depending on usage. Refer to the carbon filter's specific instructions for replacement.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your range hood, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Range Hood Not Turning On: Check if the appliance is properly plugged into a working power outlet. Verify the circuit breaker.
• Poor Suction: Ensure grease filters are clean and correctly installed. Check for obstructions in the ducting (if in extraction mode). If in recirculation mode, carbon filters might need replacement.
• Excessive Noise: Check if the filters are properly seated. Ensure the range hood is securely mounted and there are no loose parts.
• Lights Not Working: Check if the LED lights are properly connected. If they are replaceable, check if they need replacement.

For persistent issues, please contact customer support.
