Energy Efficient Usage

• When using your appliance, adjust the speed settings according to vapor and odor intensity, in order to save energy.
• 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.

Operating 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 odors and intense vapour.
• You can start your appliance by pressing on the desired speed setting button. (A, B, C)
• You may illuminate the cooking area by pressing the lamp (D).

Automatic Stop
Your appliance has an Automatic Stop feature, enabling it to ventilate for a bit more and remove the unwanted odors and vapour inside the environment and turn off automatically after the cooking is done. To enable the Automatic Stop feature, press the any speed stage but-ton (A, B, C) on the control panel for longer than 2 seconds; the 15-minute timer function shall be activated. When the automatic stop feature is active, pressing the same speed button shall disable the automatic stop function and the appliance’s motor shall stop. This feature is disabled when you switch between different speed stages.
If you want the appliance to stop automatically, you need to enable the automatic stop feature again.

Operation with Chimney Connection

• Vapour 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 10º) so that the air can exit the room easily.

Operation without Chimney Connection

• Air is filtered 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 aluminum grease filter. To install the carbon filter, fit the filter to the tabs by centring it on the plastic piece on both sides of the fan body. Tighten it by turning right or left.
• Replace aluminum grease filter.

The information required to make the lo-cation suitable for the installation of the hood is given below.

Wall Mounting

• Wall must be flat, straight and have sufficient bearing capacity.
• The 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 (Page 12 / Figure 6). There is a tab in the middle of the Chim-ney 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 (Page 8 / Figure 1). Mark the holes where the Chimney connection plate will be mounted with the help of a pen
Drill the marked points with an Ø6mm drill and insert 2 plastic dowels in the drilled holes Fix the Chimney connection plate to the wall with 3,9×22 screws
To assemble the hood body, you can use the Ø8mm drill bit to drill points A, B, C, and D on the assembly template, and insert 4.8x50mm plastic dowels at these points.
2 piece 4.8×50 suspension screw with a clearance of 5 mm between the screw head and the wall

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 Aluminum aluminium grease filter (Page 11 / Figure 4).

Hold the cooker hood by its body and place it on the mounting screws on the wall and tight-en the screws (Figure 9).
Secure the cooker hood with two 4.8×50 screws to the wall through the mounting hole on the interior of the appliance (Figure 9).

Connecting to Chimney

1. Flap Pin Socket
2. Flap Pin

Insert the plastic pin (Figure 10 / area no. 2) on the pin socket on the motor exhaust (Figure 10 / 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 10). If you are going to use the Ø 120/150 mm plastic Chimney 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 chimney. 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 Chimney work when tightened with clamp. Connect the Chimney connection duct outside the adapter (Figure 11/a). If the connection duct is fitted inside the adapter, suction of air shall not occur as the Chimney flap that prevents the return of air will remain closed (Figure 11 / b). The length of the pipe connection as well as the number of elbows must be as minimum as possible.

• A: Chimney exit pipe
• B: Chimney Clamps
• C: Plastic Chimney

The valves are closed then the appliance is not operating and prevent possible outside odour and dust from entering inside.

Installation of the Hood to the Chimney

Make the electrical connection of your hood before starting the installation of the chimney. Slip the Chimney plates around the body. Screw the Chimney to the Chimney fastening plates available on the motor cabin. (Figure 12).
Install the Chimney to the Chimney fas-tening plate that is secured to the wall from its upper outer edges (Figure 12).

Installation of Air Baffle

While using with the carbon filter, air baffle is provided with your appliance with the aim of re-releasing the air which is cleaned with car-bon filter from the perforated located on the chimney. Assemble the air baffle as below.

There is a tab in the middle of the chimney connection plate. Place the middle point of this tab on the line that is drawn perpendicular to the wall. Align horizontally and mark the holes where the connection plate will be mounted via a pen
Drill the marked points with Ø6mm drill and insert two Ø6mm plastic dowels in the drilled holes
Fix the Chimney connection plate to the wall with 3.9×22 screws
For the assembly air baffle, drill points C, D, E, F with a Ø6mm drill bit and tap the Ø6mm plastic dowels (Figure 13).
Assemble cooker hood’s body (Page 14 / Figure 9).

1. Air Baffle
2. Plastic Chimney

Attach the plastic Chimney adapter, which is included in the package, in the direction of the air baffle. Lock the Chimney adapter by turn-ing it in the direction of the arrow (Figure 14).

Assemble the air baffle group with 3.9 x 22 screws from point C, D, E, F that you have already prepared (Figure 15).

Aluminium Air Outlet Pipe
Make the air outlet pipe assembly (Figure 16)
Note: Since twists and bends in the aluminum pipe will lead to re-duction in the air suction power, avoid using twists and bends as much as possible.Install the Chimney plates of the hood (Page 14 / Figure 9)
