4. Setup & Installation
The TAZPI range hood can be installed in either ducted (vented to the outside) or ductless (recirculating) configurations. It is suitable for under-cabinet or wall-mount installation. For electrical wiring, it is recommended to consult a qualified professional.
4.1 Ducted vs. Ductless Installation
This range hood supports both ducted and ductless setups. For ducted installation, an exhaust pipe is required to vent air outside. For ductless (recirculating) installation, the included carbon filters must be installed to purify the air before it is returned to the kitchen.

- To remove: Gently push the latch on the filter and pull downwards.
- Cleaning: Wash filters with warm, soapy water or place them in a dishwasher.
- To reinstall: Align the filter with the slots and push upwards until it clicks into place.

6.2 Replacing Carbon Filters (Ductless Mode Only)
If using the range hood in ductless (recirculating) mode, the carbon filters need to be replaced periodically (typically every 3-6 months, depending on usage) to maintain odor absorption efficiency.
- Refer to the full user manual for specific carbon filter replacement instructions.
6.3 Exterior Cleaning
Clean the stainless steel exterior with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that could scratch the surface.
