ᐅ Proper Installation of IKEA UPPDRAG 60cm and NYTTIG FIL 440 Carbon Filter

Hello,

Is anyone by chance the owner of a 60cm (24 inches) Uppdrag range hood?
I have the Uppdrag set up for recirculating operation.
Unfortunately, I am unable to install the charcoal filters. They are supposed to simply “click” into place, but I can’t find any mounting options inside the Uppdrag hood.

Thanks and best regards

Hello,

I am not familiar with the hood myself, but if you look at the full-size image, it seems like the three ribs in the middle of the motor are meant for mounting. You probably won’t need the "adapter ring" from FIL440, just the actual filters. Press them on and then turn clockwise to lock – is that not possible?

Regards,

Hello, it looks like the cable is in the way. Is there a plastic part that needs to be attached first?

Thank you, IKEA friend.
That was the solution.
The adapter is unnecessary.
Somehow, your explanation was missing from the instructions.

Does the filter have a cutout for the cable that is not visible in the pictures, or how is it positioned on the fan?
