3. Ensure filters are completely dry before re-installing.

5.2 Replacing Active Carbon Filters (for Recirculation Mode)

If using the hood in recirculation mode, the active carbon filters (CBCF002X2) need to be replaced every 3-6 months, depending on usage. These filters cannot be washed.

3. Install new carbon filters by aligning and twisting to lock.
4. Re-install the grease filters.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your cooker hood, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Hood not operating: Check if the power cable is properly connected and if the circuit breaker is on. Ensure the telescopic panel is fully extended if using the memory function.
• Low suction power: Clean or replace the grease filters. If in recirculation mode, replace the active carbon filters. Ensure the ducting (if applicable) is not blocked or kinked.
• Excessive noise: Check for loose parts or improper installation. Ensure filters are correctly installed.
