Please be aware that the light bulb will retain heat for a short period of time after being switched off. Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Before replacing the LED lights, please switch off the unit. Using the appropriate tools remove the LED light strip from its slot.
_n_. _RH 5. Installation Section_ Rangehood Size vs Cooktop Size In addition to the size, the height of the rangehood above the cooktop is important to obtain the best performance. INADEQUATE Rangehood smaller than cooking zone ADEQUATE Rangehood same size as cooking zone OPTIMAL Rangehood larger than cooking zone Mounting Instructions The height and position of the rangehood in relation to the cooktop can greatly affect efficiency and extraction.

5. Installation 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 efficiency of the ducting, lowers extraction and may cause excessive noise. 2. Sweeping curves and taut ducting reduces resistance and turbulence. The airflow and extraction will be more efficient and stronger.
6. Condensation _n_. _RH Information Section_ 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 this rapid process, the rangehood filters do not have enough time to warm, which increases the chance of condensation forming.

Check Isodrive® installation manual, make sure the flexi ducting is installed correctly, eg. Length of ducting used, keep the ducting taut.
