When installing the bulb in the range hood it's almost impossible to line up the bulb pins with the holes, and even when I manage it it's impossible to turn the bulb to lock it in place. Very frustrating. There must be some trick to it. What is it? HN-6C/HN-6CB model

To properly install the bulb in the Schweigen HN-6C/HN-6CB range hood:

1. Disconnect the power cord.
2. Remove the filters from the rangehood.
3. Gently turn the old bulb clockwise and pull it down to remove it.
4. Insert the new bulb by lining up its pins with the larger holes in the light holder.
5. Once aligned, turn the bulb anti-clockwise to secure it in place.
6. Be careful, as the bulb may still be hot after use.

    Do not reduce the ducting diameter, this will reduce airflow. Faulty Installation It is not the responsibility of Schweigen to rectify any incorrect installations. A service call out fee will be charged for any Schweigen technician that attends a call, whereby it is established that the fault is due to an incorrect installation or non-manufacturing fault.
  • Page 20: Condensation Information

    7. Condensation Information _n_. _LH 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.
