Best to read the manual and follow the method there rather than guessing:

http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/displaying-rhythms#time-signature

This section is referenced from 

http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/beams#setting-automatic-beam-behavior
"Changing the default automatic beaming settings for a time signature is 
described in Time signature. "
