3.2 Installing the hood onto

the wall Secure the Ø 150 mm plastic flue adapter onto the top of the body with 3.5x9.5 screw included in installation accessories (Figure 4). If you will use Ø 120 mm flue pipe, install Ø 120 mm flue adapter onto it. To install the hood onto the wall, loosen the screws of hanger plates on the motor housing and pull the plates upwards. Then, tighten the screws of the hanger plates. (Figure 3a).

Hammer Ø 10 mm wall plugs (X,Y) into the holes drilled for hanger screws. Hammer 2 x Ø 6 mm wall plugs (Z) into the holes drilled with a Ø6 mm bit for the external flue connection plate. (Figure 5)

3.2.3 Installing the hanger

screws Install 5.5x60 hanger screws into the Ø 10 mm wall plugs (Y) you have hammered into the wall. There must be a gap of 5 mm between the screw head and the wall. (Figure 6) Connect the internal flue connection plate to the 6 mm wall plugs (Z) on the wall using Ø 3.9x22 screws. (Figure 6)

3.2.4 Hanging the hood onto the

• • Hang the hood onto the screws you have installed into the Y holes.
• • Open the side suction window of the hood by pulling it towards yourself. Install the 5.5x60 screws through the X holes located inside in order to secure the appliance. 30 / 230 EN Hood / User Manual 3 Installing your appliance

3.3 Installing the hood flue

Disconnect the product from mains supply before starting flue installation. Fit the sheet metal flue parts around the body. Extend and screw the internal flue from its outer edges onto the flue connection plate which was secured to the wall (Figure 8).

Screw the external flue to the external flue connection plates located on the motor housing. (Figure 3b / 7)

(Figure 8) (Figure 7) Hood / User Manual 31 / 230 EN 3 Installing your appliance

3.4.1 Using with flue connection

• • The vapour is removed via flue pipe which is secured to the connection head on the hood.
• • Diameter of the flue pipe should be equal to the diameter of connection ring. To allow the air be removed easily out of the room in horizontal arrangements, the pipe should be slightly tilted upwards (approximately 10°).

3.4.2 Using without flue

• • Air is filtered by the carbon filter and returned to the room. Carbon filter is used when there is no flue in the house.
• • ıf the hood will be used without flue connection remove the diverters inside the flue adapter.
• • Remove the aluminum filter. To install the carbon filter, center the carbon filter on the plastic part on both sides of the fan body, and secure it on the tabs. Secure the filter by turning the tabs to right or left.
• • Install the aluminum filter. Pipe connection must be as short as possible and have minimum number of elbows. A: Flue outlet pipe B: Flaps that prevent backflow C: Plastic flue

3.5.1 Backflow prevention system (N-RV)

When the hood is operated, flaps are closed in order to prevent possible odours and dust from entering into the ambient from outside. Correct Not correct (Figure 9)

3.5 Flue connection:

Place adapter supplied together with the hood into the ventilation hole located on the top section of the hood. Procure a pipe with a diameter of 120/150 mm. Connect one end of the pipe to the adapter and the other end to the flue. Make sure that these two connections are secure enough so that they will not dislocate when the hood is operated in max. speed. Check that the flaps inside flue are functional when tightened with the clamp. Fit the flue connection pipe onto the adapter. If you fit the flue connection pipe inside the adapter, air suction will not occur since the flaps that prevent air backflow will remain closed. It is not advisable to make connections to the flues connected with stoves or exhaust shafts. Do not make connections to such flues. 32 / 230 EN Hood / User Manual 4 Operating your appliance

4.2 Energy efficient usage:

• • When operating the hood, adjust the speed level according to the odour and vapour intensity in order to prevent unnecessary power consumption.
• • Use low speeds in normal conditions (1-2), and high speed (3) when smell and vapors are intensified.
• • Lights on the hood are intended for illuminating the cooking zone. Using them to illuminate the ambient/kitchen will result with unnecessary power consumption and inadequate illumination.

4.3 Operating the hood:

• • Hood is equipped with a motor having various speed settings.
• • For a better performance, we advise you to use low speeds in normal conditions, and high speeds when smell 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) 34 / 230 EN Hood / User Manual 5 Cleaning and maintenance Prior to cleaning and maintenance, unplug the appliance or turn the main switch off or loosen the fuse that supplies the hood.

This filter captures oil particles in the air. You are recommended to clean your filter every month under normal usage conditions. First remove the aluminum filters for this process. Wash the filters with liquid detergent and rinse them with water and install them back after they get dry. Aluminum filters may get discolored as they are washed; this is normal and you don't need to change your filter.

5.1.1 Removing the aluminum

1. Push the aluminum filter lock forward.

2. Then, slightly lower it and pull forward.

Otherwise, you may bend the filter. (Figure 10) After the aluminum filter is washed and dried, reinstall the filter to its slot by applying above steps in reverse order. Carbon filter (Using without flue) This filter removes the cooking odours. If it is not possible to use a flue, it purifies the air which is circulated inside the kitchen. Carbon filter of your appliance will get clogged in time depending on the frequency of use, style of cooking and regular cleaning of the aluminum filters.

Caution! Carbon filter should never be washed. You may obtain carbon filters from Beko Authorised Service Agents.

5.2.1 Replacing the carbon filter

• • Remove the aluminum filters. (Figure 10)
• • To remove carbon filter, turn the tabs counterclockwise and release the filter. (Figure 11)
• • Install the new carbon filter.
• • Install the aluminum filters. (Figure 11) (Figure 10) Note: You can also wash aluminum filters in dishwasher. Hood / User Manual Anti-odor filters contain charcoal (active carbon). They must be changed with periods of approximately 6 months. Regardless of using a carbon filter or not, aluminum filters must always be installed. Do not operate your appliance without the aluminum filter in place. Using with carbon filter will decrease suction performance of the appliance. 35 / 230 EN 5 Cleaning and maintenance
