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:
1. The oil level can be monitored through the "Oil Cup Window."
2. To clean, pull out the oil cup horizontally with both hands.
3. Dump the accumulated oil.
4. Clean the oil cup and wipe it dry.
5. 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:
1. Long press the "gesture" button to open the panel.
2. Unplug the unit from the socket.
3. Remove the oil cup, unscrew the glass fixing screw, and lift up the lower glass panel.
4. Clean the filter surface (the filter itself should not be removed).
5. Reinstall the glass panel and screws.
6. After cleaning, plug the power cord back in.
Steam Washing (Internal Cleaning):
1. When the indicator light turns red and flashes, it signals that steam washing is required.
2. Remove the oil cup, dump accumulated oil, and reinstall the oil cup.
3. Fill the water cup with purified or distilled water.
4. Connect the tube to the water inlet.
5. Press "Steam Washing" for 3 seconds to start the process.
6. The steam washing cycle lasts 12 minutes, followed by a 3-minute drying phase.
7. 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.
