1 2 3 5. Operation Schweigen silent rangehoods are recognised for their silent operation. Although this holds true for all of our rangehoods with external motors, one must note that the rangehoods are silent when they are used for regular cooking on the lower fan setting. Therefore, you will only hear the movement of air.
6. Cleaning and Maintenance WARNING Always switch off and disconnect power to the rangehood before cleaning. The manufacturer is exonerated from all responsibility in the event of fire due to poor maintenance of the filters and rangehood. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. Filters • For this appliance to function effectively, regular maintenance is a must. • The function of the filter is to absorb the grease particles emitted during cooking.
6. Cleaning and Maintenance Surfaces The surface of the rangehood can be cleaned with warm soapy water and a soft sponge / cloth. • Never use abrasive detergents, scouring pads, steel wool or solvents on ANY part of this appliance. • Rinse with clean water and ensure that the appliance is completely dry after cleaning. • For better results, you can use high quality cleaning and protection products (eg. Steel Kleen) to clean your rangehood.
6. Cleaning and Maintenance Replacing the Lights DANGER Always switch off and disconnect power before replacing the lights. Failure to do so may cause serious injury. Please be aware that the light bulb may retain heat for a short period of time after being switched off. Step 1 Remove the filters from the rangehood. Step 2 Gently push light holder down, turn light bulb anti-clockwise, pull the light bulb down and remove it from the light holder. Step 3 Gently push light holder down.
7. Troubleshooting Cooking with Induction Cooktops Cooking with an induction or similar cooktop, may produce condensation on the rangehood. Unlike basic electric or gas cooking, induction cooktops heat food and liquid instantly, which in turn, produces vapours rapidly. Because of the accelerated process, the rangehood filters do not have enough time to warm up, which increases the chance of condensation forming.
