The Midea MCH-90B68AT is a cooker hood designed for domestic use, intended to be installed horizontally above a gas or electric stove. This appliance helps maintain good ventilation in the kitchen by extracting cooking fumes and odors.
Function Description:
The cooker hood operates by drawing air through its filters and expelling it through an exhaust pipe. It features a control panel with touch-sensitive buttons and gesture control for various functions, including lighting, fan speed adjustment, and a unique steam washing function for internal cleaning. The appliance is designed to be user-friendly, with clear indicators for its operational status.

Usage Features:
- Control Panel: The hood features a control panel with buttons for "light," "gesture," "steam washing," "turbo," "speed," and "switch."
- Gesture Control: Users can activate the hood by moving their palm from left to right or right to left in front of the gesture sensor.
- Light Control: A short press on the "light" button turns the light on/off; a long press adjusts the light intensity.
- Panel Control (Gesture): A long press on the "gesture" button opens the panel, and another long press closes it.
- Steam Washing Activation: A long press on the "steam washing" button initiates the steam cleaning function. A long press followed by two short presses cancels the indicator light reminder for steam washing.
- Turbo Mode: A short press on the "turbo" button activates the highest speed (09 speed). It automatically returns to 03 speed after 5 minutes; manual selection is required to continue turbo mode.
- Speed Adjustment: A short press on the "speed" button adjusts the fan speed. When the clock flashes, it allows for clock adjustment.
- Power Switch:
- 1st short press: Starts the unit at 3 speed.
- 2nd short press: Activates a 3-minute delay shutdown.
- 3rd short press: Turns the unit off immediately.
- Self-Inspection Function: The first time the hood is connected to power or re-powered, it performs a self-inspection where the top glass plate opens and closes once. Users are advised to keep hands away from the glass panel during this process to avoid pinching.
- Ventilation: Adequate ventilation of the room is required when the range hood is used simultaneously with other gas or fuel-burning appliances.
- Air Discharge: Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue used for exhausting fumes from other gas or fuel-burning appliances. Local laws regarding external air evacuation must be followed.
Maintenance Features:
- Regular Cleaning: The surface of the range hood and its filters should be cleaned regularly. A non-corrosive detergent and hot water are recommended for cleaning the main body every two months to prevent long-term dirt accumulation and corrosion. Abrasive cleaning balls, brushes, or coarse cloths should not be used to avoid scratching the machine's surface.
- Oil Cup Cleaning:
- The oil level can be monitored through the "Oil Cup Window."
- To clean, pull out the oil cup horizontally with both hands.
- Dump the accumulated oil.
- Clean the oil cup and wipe it dry.
- Reinstall the oil cup horizontally with both hands.
- Regular dumping of oil is crucial to prevent oil from dripping onto the stove, which poses a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out as instructed.
- Filter Cleaning:
- Long press the "gesture" button to open the panel.
- Unplug the unit from the socket.
- Remove the oil cup, unscrew the glass fixing screw, and lift up the lower glass panel.
- Clean the filter surface (the filter itself should not be removed).
- Reinstall the glass panel and screws.
- After cleaning, plug the power cord back in.
- Steam Washing (Internal Cleaning):
- When the indicator light turns red and flashes, it signals that steam washing is required.
- Remove the oil cup, dump accumulated oil, and reinstall the oil cup.
- Fill the water cup with purified or distilled water.
- Connect the tube to the water inlet.
- Press "Steam Washing" for 3 seconds to start the process.
- The steam washing cycle lasts 12 minutes, followed by a 3-minute drying phase.
- After the cycle, remove the oil cup, dump the accumulated water, and reinstall the oil cup.
- Caution during steam washing: Do not touch any glass panel or deflector surfaces to avoid scalding due to hot steam.
- Canceling/Speeding up steam washing: To cancel the reminder, long press "steam washing" for 2 seconds and then short press twice. To speed up or end the process, short press "steam washing" again.
