Frequently Asked Questions - BHCI31322BBH BEKO

How do I clean the grease filter?

Remove the grease filter by releasing the locks (arrows). Wash it with liquid detergent and water, or in the dishwasher. Let it dry completely before reinstalling. Clean at least once a month.

How often should I replace the carbon filter?

The carbon filter should be replaced every 3 months if your hood is used in recirculation mode. It cannot be washed.

What should I do if the hood does not work?

Check the fuse and electrical connection. Ensure the mains voltage is 220-240 V. If other appliances work, the hood may be faulty; contact service.

How do I replace the light bulbs?

Disconnect the power supply. Wait for bulbs to cool. Use GU10 3W LED bulbs (230V). Do not touch the new bulb directly; use a cloth. Available from authorized service.

Can I install the hood myself?

Installation should be done by an authorized service to avoid electrical shock and ensure proper mounting. The manufacturer is not liable for improper installation.

What is the minimum distance between the hood and the hob?

The minimum distance is 65 cm from the hob surface (grate for gas, glass for electric). Follow the installation instructions carefully.

Why is the air intake poor?

Check the aluminum filter; clean it if dirty. Ensure the air vent flue is open. If using a carbon filter, replace it if it is clogged (every 3 months).

Can I use the hood without a flue?

Yes, in recirculation mode. You need to install a carbon filter. Remove the flaps inside the flue adapter and fit the charcoal filter. The air is recirculated back into the room.

What should I do if the lamp does not work?

Check the electrical connection and ensure the lamp switch is on. If still not working, replace the bulb. If the problem persists, contact service.

Is it safe to leave the hood on while frying?

Yes, but never leave high naked flames under the hood. Monitor deep fat fryers continuously as overheated oil can catch fire. Adjust flame to only heat the pan bottom.

• The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to eliminate kitchen smells.
• Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed.
• Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.
• Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only, making sure that it does not engulf the sides.
• Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated can burst into flames.

3.2 Efficient use in terms of energy saving

• When using your appliance, adjust the speed settings according to vapour and odour intensity, in order to save energy.
• Use low speeds (1-2) under normal conditions, and high speed (3) and boost mode for intense odour and vapour.
• The hood is equipped with lamps in order to illuminate the cooking area.
• Using them for environmental lighting shall cause unnecessary energy expenditure and insufficient lighting.
• For your device to consume less energy, run it at a low speed level.
• Your device will reduce energy consumption as it will run more efficiently when you provide sufficient air intake to it.
• Set your device to the intense suction power level before the formation of steam, in cases where you know that the dense steam will occur. So, you reduce energy consumption by using your device for a shorter time as it will have a sufficient air intake.
• Keep the lids of the cookware closed to reduce the steam evolving.

3 Using the appliance

3.3 Operating the hood

• The hood is equipped with a motor that has various speed settings.
• For better performance, we advise you to use low speeds in normal conditions, and high speeds when smells and vapors are intensified.
• You can start the hood by pressing the desired speed level key (B, C, D).
• You can illuminate the cooking area by pressing the light key (A).

3.5 Operation with flue connection

The air is extracted through the flue duct, which is fastened to the connection head on the hood.

The diameter of the flue duct must be the same as the connection ring. In horizontal settings, the pipe has to have a slight upward slope (around 10 degrees) so that the air can exit the room easily.

3.6 Operation without flue connection

The air is drawn through the carbon filter and recirculated in the room. The carbon filter is used when it is impossible to use a flue in the house.

• In flueless use, remove the flaps inside the flue adapter.
• Remove the oil filter. To install the carbon filter, fit the filter to the tabs by centering it on the plastic piece on both sides of the fan body. Tighten it by turning right or left. Replace the aluminium oil filter.

4 Cleaning and maintenance
