A comprehensive Operating and Service Manual. All schematics are complete and easy to read. The PCB drawings and complete parts list are very helpful. I would definitely recommend this manual.
Genuine Toshiba owner's manual. Couldn't really ask for more. And written in understandable English in contrast to a few recent experiences I have had with manuals for other equipment other than Toshiba but made in China and written in "Chinglish"!

Charcoal Filters
In the recirulation mode the charcoal filters absorb smells and unwanted odours. The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, we recommend they should be replaced approximately every three months or more often if the hood is used for more than three hours per day.

To replace the light bulb insert a replacement into the holder then rotate the bulb clockwise into position. Ensure you take care not to overtighten the bulb.
if the light bulb fails to function check that the bulb is fully screwed into the holder. If bulb failure has occurred then it should be replaced with a 220-240 Volt 40W clear globe shaped bulb with a small E14 screw thread. Replacement filters and light bulbs can be obtained from your local Service Force Centre.
