1. Introduction
Thank you for choosing Generisch Kitchen Hood Switch Symbol Decals. These transparent adhesive symbols are designed to replace worn or faded markings on your kitchen hood control panel, restoring clarity and functionality. They are machine-printed with eco-solvent ink on a durable film, ensuring excellent adhesion and residue-free removal when applied correctly.
2. Safety Information
- Keep out of reach of small children to prevent accidental ingestion.
- Do not apply to heated surfaces or near open flames.
- Ensure the application surface is clean and dry to prevent poor adhesion.
3. Installation Guide
Follow these steps for optimal application of your new symbol decals:
- Prepare the Surface: Clean the area where the decal will be applied thoroughly. Use a mild cleaner and ensure the surface is completely dry and free of grease, dust, or old adhesive residues.
- Identify Symbols: Carefully identify the corresponding symbols on your kitchen hood control panel and match them with the decals on the sheet.
- Peel the Decal: Gently peel the desired symbol decal from its backing sheet. Avoid touching the adhesive side with your fingers.
- Apply the Decal: Position the decal precisely over the intended area on the control panel. Once aligned, press it down firmly from the center outwards to remove any air bubbles.
- Smooth Out: Use a soft cloth or a plastic card (like a credit card) to smooth out the decal, ensuring full contact with the surface and eliminating any remaining air bubbles.

4. Care & Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your decals:
- Clean the decals gently with a soft, damp cloth.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scrubbing pads, as these can damage the decal's print or adhesive.
- Do not expose to extreme heat or direct, prolonged sunlight, which may cause fading or peeling over time.
5. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Decal not sticking properly. | Surface was not clean or dry; oil/grease residue. | Ensure surface is thoroughly cleaned with alcohol or a degreaser and completely dry before application. |
| Air bubbles under the decal. | Improper application technique. | Apply from the center outwards, using a soft cloth or card to smooth. For small bubbles, gently prick with a fine needle and smooth. |
| Decal peeling at edges. | Edges not pressed firmly enough; exposure to moisture. | Re-press edges firmly. Ensure the area is dry after cleaning. |
