2. Important Safety Information
Product Use
This product is designed for household use and should not be used for commercial applications.
After use, always ensure that all controls are in the “OFF” position.
When frying with a gas ame, take particular care not to allow the oil or grease in the pan to catch
re. (Flambé)
Ducted or Recirculating?
Ducted rangehoods (or extractor rangehoods) extract the cooking fumes from the kitchen and expel
them from the space via ducting. Good design practice would always see a re-rated ducting system
extend to the house exterior, rather than to the ceiling cavity. When a rangehood is ducted only into
the ceiling space, the collection of humidity and grease can present very real health issues and re hazards.
Recirculating (or non-ducted or ltered) rangehoods extract cooking fumes and pass them through
lters. As the name would suggest, they recirculate this air back into the room. Recirculating rangehoods
are not as eective as removing fumes from a kitchen space, but they are sometimes the only option due
to budgetary or building constraints. You should be made aware of the requirement to change and clean
lters on a regular basis for the optimum eciency of air ltering.
Electrical Cord
Ensure the supply cord is not exposed to heat, chemicals or sharp objects. If the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer.

5. Cleaning & Maintenance
Warning
Always switch o and disconnect power before cleaning.
Cleaning the Interior
Clean the interior of the rangehood with a damp cloth and a neutral detergent or denatured alcohol.
NOTE: Do not use denatured alcohol on the exterior of the rangehood. Do not clean the electric parts or
the motor with liquids or solvents
Cleaning the Exterior
We recommended using a soft cloth, water and a liquid soap, rinsing it well and then drying it thoroughly.
For better results, you can use high quality cleaning and protection products (e.g. Steel Kleen) to clean
your rangehood.
OK
• The recommended detergent is a solution of water and a neutral
liquid soap.
• It is very important for the liquid soap to not contain granules
that could scratch the surface.
• First apply the solution to a soft cloth and then rub the cloth
over the rangehood. It is important to follow the direction of the
stained surface with the cloth (refer to gure on left).
• Do not pour any liquid directly on to the rangehood.
• The cloth must have no buttons, zips or fasteners that could
scratch the surface.
• It is strictly forbidden to use chemical solvents, aggressive,
grainy or abrasive products, naphtha, alcohol or similar products
that could damage the surface of the rangehood.
• The manufacturer will not be held responsible for functional or
aesthetic damage caused by cleaning with products which are
not suitable or using inadequate cleaning methods.
Page 9
5. Cleaning & Maintenance
Baes
For this appliance to function eectively, regular maintenance is a must.
• The function of the bae is to collect the grease particles given o during cooking.
• Clogged heavy oil deposits restrict airow and may cause the motor to overheat
and become a re hazard.
• Baes should be cleaned every 3-6 weeks or after 40 hours of use.
• For induction cooktop, please aim to clean them at least every 10 days, depending on use.
• The baes can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher.
– Washing by hand - Immerse the lter in hot water and a suitable detergent and when clean,
rinse with plenty of hot water.
– Dishwasher - Put the lter in the dishwasher and select a short program at low temperature.
NOTE: The colour of the metal mesh lters may change after several washes. This is normal and
it is not necessary to change the lters.
Please ensure the baes are completely dry before placing them back in position
and operating the rangehood.
Endure the baes are cool before removing, to
ensure no oil is spilt.
To remove, push away from you until the near
edge clears the slot. Then carefully pull down
and back to remove. To replace, perform the
same operation but in reverse.
Warning
• If the baes are very dirty, the motor will extract only a small quantity of air, which
reduces its eciency;
Page 10
• The grease deposits that build up on the baes are highly ammable and COULD EASILY CATCH FIRE.
• The manufacturer is exonerated from all responsibility in the event of re due to poor
maintenance of the grease lters.
Replacing the Light Bulb
Danger
Always switch o and disconnect the power cord before replacing any light bulbs. Failure
to do so may cause serious injury. Please be aware that the light bulb will retain heat for
a short period of time after being switched o.
5. Cleaning & Maintenance
Step 1
Remove the lters from
the rangehood.
Step 2
Gently turn light bulb clockwise,
pull the light bulb down and
remove it from the light holder.
Step 3
Insert a new light bulb by lining
up the pins of the light bulb with
the larger holes inside the light
holder. Once the pins are in place,
turn anti-clockwise to secure the
light bulb.

BBQ Installation
When installing the rangehood over a BBQ , please be aware that the lid will obstruct the rangehoods
eectiveness to extract smoke, steam and odours. Where possible, remove the lid of the BBQ unit when
in use, so as to allow for eective rangehood extraction. Alternatively, install the rangehood on an
extension, to move the rangehood further out.

6. Installation
Mounting Instructions – Outdoor/Alfresco
When installing in an outdoor kitchen or alfresco area,the rangehood MUST NOT be installed
where it is directly exposed to the elements .
It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that the rangehood be installed centrally over the cooktop.
This will greatly improve its performance.
Minimum legal height from the BBQ surface to the underside face of the rangehood:
• 1200mm
Any installation above 1200mm will compromise the extraction performance.
Measurements are from the top of the trivets to the lowest part of the rangehood,
including the button controls.
*IMPORTANT: If the user decides to install the rangehood at a distance of less than minimum height
above the cooking surface, Schweigen declines responsibility for damages suered by the rangehood
due to excess heat or damage to objects, people and others caused directly or indirectly by a
malfunction, breakage or re.
* Important: In addition to the information in this manual,
please check all relevant state requirememnts for minimum–
maximum heights, as well as regulations regarding the
expelling of air. Schweigen is not liable if your rangehood is
not installed in accordance with these legal requirements.

Page 16
IMPORTANT
Please ensure all plastic protection on the rangehood and lters is removed before use.
Ducting
Please DO NOT crush or kink the ducting.
1. Crushed or kinked ducting creates
sharp corners that creates turbulence.
This reduces the size and eciency
of the ducting, lowers extraction and
may cause excessive noise.
6. Installation
2. Sweeping curves and taut ducting
reduces resistance and turbulence.
The airow and extraction will be
more ecient and stronger.
Back Draft Fins (For applicable models)
The supplied ducting has been manufactured with an allowance for the back draft ns to operate without
hindrance. It is the smooth extended end of the ducting.
When installing Back Draft Fins, please ensure that you insert the Back Draft Fins onto the back draft base,
which are attached to the top of the motor outlet before installation. Then place the smooth extended edge
of the ducting into the back draft base and x securely.
Should your Back Draft Fins get stuck, this is not a warranty issue.
