Solution
Check that the hood is connected
to the electricity supply.
Check that the fan speed control is
set properly.
The fan speed is not set high enough.
The grease filter is dirty.
The kitchen is not ventilated well
enough.
If the hood is set for recirculation,
check that the carbon filters have not
expired.
If the hood is set for extraction, check
that the ducting and outlets are not
blocked.
The safety cut-out device has been
tripped.
Turn off the hob and then wait for the
device to reset.
Note that if you have installed your
range hood too low, this will happen.
If it happens frequently, it will be
damaged.
