  To address a strong cooking smell with your Turbo Incanto Ventilation Hood, ensure that charcoal filters are installed, especially when operating in re-circulating mode. This is because the absence of charcoal filters can lead to noticeable cooking odors.

  If oil is dripping onto your stove from the Turbo Incanto Ventilation Hood, it may be due to a missing or improperly installed oil cup. Remove the aluminum filter and ensure the oil cup is correctly placed. Alternatively, the aluminum grease filter might be saturated; in this case, wash the aluminum grease filters thoroughly.

  Todd BrownAug 27, 2025
  If your Turbo Incanto Ventilation Hood motor cuts off after a few minutes, it could be due to the activation of a high-temperature safety device. This suggests that the kitchen might not be sufficiently ventilated. Another potential cause is that the hood is installed too close to the cooking stove; ensure the hood is at least 65cm away from the stove.

  Poor airflow in your Turbo Incanto Ventilation Hood can often be attributed to clogged aluminum grease filters. Clean the filters thoroughly and replace them once they are completely dry. Another potential cause is clogged charcoal grease filters, which should be replaced with new sets.

This document describes the Turbo Incanto Smart Slim Hood, a kitchen appliance designed for ventilating cooking fumes. It features both touch switch and motion sensor controls for ease of use.

Function Description:

The Smart Slim Hood operates in two primary modes: Ducted Mode and Recirculating Mode. In Ducted Mode, the appliance vents cooking fumes through a suitable 150mm diameter fire-proof ducting system to an external outlet. In this configuration, only the aluminum grease filters are installed. In Recirculating Mode, fumes are filtered for both grease and odor. This is achieved by passing the air first through aluminum grease filters and then through charcoal filters, after which the cleaned air is reintroduced into the kitchen environment. For this mode, both aluminum grease filters and charcoal filters must be installed.

The hood is equipped with a 3 or 4-speed control system, which can be either mechanical or electronic, depending on the model. Users can select different speeds based on their cooking needs:

Low speed is recommended for simmering.
Medium speed is suitable for light cooking.
High speed is ideal for frying or heavy cooking.

The touch control interface allows for intuitive operation:

Motion Sensor Activation (A): Within 10-15cm of the distance switch, swiping once from left to right turns on the fan at low speed (LED screen shows "1"). Subsequent swipes to the right increase the fan speed to mid (LED screen shows "2") and then high (LED screen shows "3"), cycling through these speeds.
Power On/Off (B): Pressing button B turns the power on, and pressing it again turns it off.
Fan Speed Decrease (C): When the fan is operating at high speed (LED screen shows "3"), pressing button C once reduces the fan speed to mid (LED screen shows "2"). Pressing C again reduces it to low speed (LED screen shows "1").
Fan Speed Increase (D): When the fan is operating at low speed (LED screen shows "1"), pressing button D once increases the fan speed to mid (LED screen shows "2"). Pressing D again increases it to high speed (LED screen shows "3").
Light On/Off (E): Pressing button E turns the light on, and pressing it again turns it off.
Motion Sensor Deactivation (F): Within 10-15cm of the switch, swiping once from right to left closes the appliance.

The appliance is designed for household use only. The minimum distance between the supporting surface for cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood should be at least 65 cm when located above a gas appliance. If the gas hob's installation instructions specify a greater distance, that must be followed. The supply chord should not be exposed to heat, chemicals, or sharp objects. Replacement lamps must not exceed 40W, and LED lamps must not exceed 1.5W.

Usage Features:

Smart Controls: Touch switch and motion sensor for convenient operation.
Variable Speed Settings: 3 or 4 fan speeds to adapt to different cooking intensities.
Dual Ventilation Modes: Can be configured for either ducted (external exhaust) or recirculating (internal filtration) operation.
Safety First: Designed with safety in mind, including warnings about fire risks from improper cleaning and the importance of proper ventilation.
Child Safety: Can be used by children aged 8 and above with supervision and instruction. Cleaning and user maintenance by children require supervision and must only be performed by those older than 8.
Installation Flexibility: Multiple installation methods are provided, including wall-mounting and installation under a hanging cupboard, with options for vertical or horizontal ventilation.

Maintenance Features:

Regular Cleaning of Grease Filters: Aluminum grease filters should be cleaned often, at least once a month, to prevent heavy oil deposits which pose a fire hazard. They can be washed in a dishwasher or soaked in a degreasing agent.
Charcoal Filter Replacement: In recirculating mode, charcoal filters are not washable or reusable. They must be replaced once a year, or more frequently depending on usage (at most after 120 hours of use). Charcoal filters should not be exposed to heat.
Surface Cleaning: The hood surface should be cleaned with a soft cloth and non-corrosive detergent. Abrasive detergents, scouring pads, steel wool, or solvents should never be used.
Oil Cup Cleaning: The oil cup is easily removable for cleaning. It can be washed with hot water and detergent, then dried before reinstallation. Professional cleaning methods involving hot water and alkali (oxygenation hammer) are also mentioned.
Troubleshooting Guide: A comprehensive troubleshooting section helps users identify and resolve common issues such as no power, poor airflow, motor running but no airflow, motor cutting off, strong cooking smell, oil dripping, and whirring sounds.
Professional Service Recommendation: Users are advised not to attempt repairs themselves and to always refer to qualified service technicians, insisting on original parts for safety.
Electrical Safety: Always switch off and unplug the appliance before conducting any maintenance or cleaning. Electrical connections must comply with local standards and laws and be performed by a qualified technician. The appliance must be earthed.
