IKEA UNDERVERK Built-in Extractor Hood
Safety Information
For your safety and correct operation of the appliance, read this manual carefully before installation and use. Always keep these instructions with the appliance even if you move or sell it. Users must fully know the operation and safety features of the appliance.
- The wire connection has to be done by a specialized technician.
- The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.
- The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood is: for electrical hob 500mm and for gas hob 650mm. If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be respected.
- Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.
- Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
- For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.
- Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
- Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).
- If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
- The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent.
- Connect the plug to a socket complying with current regulations, located in an accessible place.
- With regards to the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging, it is important to closely follow the regulations provided by the local authorities.
- WARNING: Before installing the Hood, remove the protective films.
- Use only screws and small parts in support of the hood.
- WARNING: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.
- Connect the hood to the power net by using a bipolar switch having a contact gap of at least 3 mm.
- Do not look directly at the light through optical devices (binoculars, magnifying glasses...).
- Do not flambé under the range hood; risk of fire.
- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
- The appliance is not to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction.
- Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
- Clean and/or replace the Filters after the specified time period (Fire hazard).
- There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the range hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into the room).
Use
- Switch off or unplug the appliance from the mains supply before carrying out any maintenance work.
- The top of the hood must not be used as a shelf.
- The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to eliminate kitchen smells.
- Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed.
- Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation. Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only, making sure that it does not engulf the sides.
- Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can burst into flames.
Installation Modes
The hood has been designed to be installed and used either as an “Exhaust mode” or as a “Recirculation mode”.
Recirculation mode (see symbol in installation booklet)
The air is filtered through one or more charcoal filters, and then resent into the room. Ensure appropriate air circulation around the hood. If the hood is supplied without charcoal filters and installed on recirculation mode, these must be fitted before the hood can be used. Filters are available in shops. The hood should be installed away from particularly dirty areas, windows, doors and heat sources.
The accessories for wall fixing are not included because walls made of different materials require different types of fixing accessories. Use fixing systems suitable for the walls of your home and the weight of the appliance. For more details, contact a specialized dealer. Keep this booklet for future consultation.
Exhaust mode (see symbol in installation booklet)
Cooking steam is sucked and channelled outside the house through a discharge duct (not supplied), fitted to the hood steam outlet. Ensure that the discharge duct is correctly fitted to the air outlet, unit using an appropriate connection system.

Care and Cleaning
WARNING: Switch off or unplug the appliance from the mains supply before carrying out any maintenance work.
IMPORTANT: Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.
Long Life Charcoal Filter (Green)
The anti-odour filter can be washed and regenerated every 3-4 months (or more frequently if the hood is subject to intensive use), up to a maximum of 8 regeneration cycles (in case of particularly intensive use, it is recommended that you do not exceed 5 cycles).
Regeneration procedure:
- Wash in the dishwasher at a MAX temperature of 70° or hand wash in hot water without using abrasive sponges (do not use detergents!).
- Dry in the oven at a MAX temperature of 70° for 2 hours (it is recommended to read carefully the user manual and the assembly instruction of the oven of your own).
Grease Filters
Clean or replace the filters continuously according to below time intervals, to maintain good performance of the hood and to prevent a potential fire hazard, caused by excessive grease build-up. The grease filters must be cleaned every 2 months of operation, or more frequently for particularly heavy usage, and can be washed in a dishwasher.
Replacing the lamps
For replacement, please contact an Authorized Service Center.
