• Use low speeds (1-2) under normal conditions, and high speed (3) for intense odour and vapour.
• The lamps on the hood are placed for illuminating the cooking area.
• Using them for environmental lighting shall cause unnecessary energy expenditure and insufficient lighting.

3.3 Operation of the hood

• Your appliance contains a motor that has various speeds.
• For better performance, we recommend using low speeds under normal conditions and high speeds in cases of strong odours and intense vapour.
• You can start your appliance by pressing on the desired speed setting button. (B,C,D)
• You can illuminate the cooking area by pressing the lamp. (A)

3.4 Automatic stop
Your appliance has Automatic Stop feature, enabling it to ventilate for a bit more and remove the unwanted odours and vapour inside the environment and turn off automatically after the cooking is done. To enable Automatic Stop feature, press the any speed stage button (B, C, D) on the control panel for longer than 2 seconds; the 15-minute timer function shall be activated.

5.3 Wall mounting

• Wall must be flat, straight and have the sufficient bearing capacity.
• Depth of drilling holes must comply with the length of bolts.
• The bolts and dowels provided are suitable for brick walls. For other construction material (e.g. drywall, plate, porous concrete), suitable fixing dowels and nuts shall be used.

CAUTION: Before drilling, ensure that there are no power, gas or water pipes in the close proximity of the drilling locations.

Draw a mid location line from the ceiling perpendicular to the lower edge of the hood.

Paste the installing template provided within the accessories on the surface where the hood is to be mounted. In doing this operation, observe the mounting height of the hood (Figure 6).

There is a tab in the middle of the flue connection plate. Place the middle point of this tab on the line that is drawn perpendicular to the wall. In doing this operation, adjust the hood according to the maximum height (Figure 1). Mark the holes where the flue connection plate will be mounted with the help of a pen (Figure 7/a).

Drill the marked points with Ø6mm drill and insert 2 plastic dowels in the drilled holes (Figure 7/a). Fix the flue connection plate to the wall with 3,9×22 screws (Figure 7/a).

To assemble the hood body, you can use the Ø8mm drill bit to drill points A, B, C, D on the assembly template, and insert 4.8x50mm plastic dowels at these points. (Figure 7/b).

2 piece 4.8×50 suspension screw with a clearance of 5 mm between the screw head and the wall (Figure 7/b).

(Figure 8)
1. Hanger plate
2. Hanging plate connection screw

In order to install your hood to the wall, loosen the screws on the hanger plates mounted on the motor cabin and pull them up, and then fasten again (Figure 8 / A).
Turn on the suction glass of the hood and remove the grease filter (Figure 4).

(Figure 9)
Attach the 150mm plastic chimney adapter included in the package to the product body with

3.5×9.5 blunt-ended screws. If the air outlet is to be connected to the air discharge duct smaller than 150mm, install the 150 / 120mm plastic flue adapter (Fig. 9).

(Figure 10)
Hold the cooker hood by its body and place it on the mounting screws on the wall and tighten the screws (Figure 10).

Secure the cooker hood with two 4.8×50 screws to the wall through the mounting hole on the interior of the appliance (Figure 10).

5.4 Connecting to flue

(Figure 11)
1. Flap pin socket
2. Flap pin

Insert the plastic pin (Figure 11 / area no. 2) on the pin socket on the motor exhaust (Figure 11 / area no.1). Then bend the flap lightly to insert the other pin on the flap and insert the other pin to its socket (Figure 11).

If you are going to use the Ø 120/150 mm plastic flue adapter, connect one end of the pipe to this adapter, if you are not going to use it, to the direct output on the product. Connect the other end of the pipe to your flue. Check that these two connections are tight enough so they will not come out when the appliance runs on full power. Ensure that the flaps inside the flue work when tightened with clamp. Connect the flue connection duct outside the adapter (Figure 12/a). If the connection duct is fitted inside the adapter, suction of air shall not occur as the flue flap that prevents the return of air will remain closed (Figure 12 / b). The length of the pipe connection as well as the number of elbows must be as minimum as possible.

A : Flue exit pipe
B : Flue clamps
C: Plastic flue
The valves are closed then the appliance is not operating and prevent possible outside odour and dust from entering inside.
