IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CORRECT DISPOSAL OF THE
PRODUCT IN ACCORDANCE WITH EC DIRECTIVE 2002/96/EC.
At the end of its working life, the product must be taken to a special
local authority waste collection centre or to a dealer providing
appliance recycling services.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible
negative consequences for the environment and health. It also
enables the constituent materials to be recovered, saving both energy
and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household
appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out
wheeled dustbin.
Please note:
•Under no circumstances should the extractor be connected to any
gas ventilation system, flue system or hot air ducting system.
• Do not vent the extractor into an attic or loft space.
•Only house the extractor in rooms with adequate ventilation.
Remember that the extractor is powerful and whatever air is
extracted needs to be replaced.
•Do not tile the extractor in. It should be removable for service or
maintenance.
•Do not use silicone sealant to secure the hood to the wall.
•You must be able to isolate the extractor from the mains electrical
supply after installation.
•This extractor has been designed to be used in a room with a
volume of less than 36m3.
•Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliance.
•The performance of your extractor will vary depending on a number
of factors. These include: type of extraction, length of ducting, room
volume, ventilation available and cleanliness of the filters.

Using Your Extractor
For best performance, you should switch on the extractor 15 minutes
before starting to cook and leave it to run for approximately 15
minutes after the end of cooking.

Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT : DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING
OF THE EXTRACTOR WITHOUT FIRST SWITCHING OFF THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
Cleaning
You should use a nonabrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner
(including Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control
panel markings.
You can clean your extractor eectively by simply using a dilute
solution of water and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a
clean cloth, for example the CDA E-Cloth.
Cleaning the grease filter
The grease filter should be kept clean to minimise the risk of fire.
At least once a month you should remove and clean the grease
filter with hot soapy water. You can also wash the grease filter in a
dishwasher, ensuring that you place it in an upright position to prevent
damage from other items in the dishwasher.
See the next page for how to remove and replace the grease filter.

6
To remove the grease filter
• Open the grease filter cover by sliding the retaining clips across.
• Remove the wire filter clip then lift out the grease filter itself (shown
as “G” in figure 2).
To replace the grease filter
• Repeat the steps above in reverse.
Please note: Cleaning the filter in the dishwasher may lead to
discolouration. This is normal and does not constitute a fault with the
appliance.
Changing the charcoal filter (re-circulating only)
(Charcoal filter - CDA part number: CHA5)
To ensure best performance of your extractor, you should replace the
charcoal filter every four to six months, depending on use. To attach
a new charcoal filter, first open the grease filter cover as described
above. Then oer up the charcoal filter (shown as “C” in Fig. 2) to the
base of the motor and turn it clockwise until it locks into place.

Changing the Light Bulb
DO NOT CHANGE THE LIGHT BULB IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE
AS THE BULB WILL BE HOT. ALLOW IT TO COOL BEFORE
REMOVING IT.
Open the base of the extractor as described on the previous page,
unscrew the light bulb and replace it with a new one (type SES
halogen screw fitting, 240V max 28W). Finally, replace the grease
filter.
Do not touch the bulb or adjacent areas during or straight after
prolonged use of the light.
The light is designed for use during cooking and not for general room
illumination. Extended use of the light can reduce the life span of the
bulb.
Bulb replacement is not covered by the guarantee.
Only use the bulb recommended for your extractor. Do not fit a
bulb of a higher power rating. Bulbs of a lower power rating may be
adequate for use, generally last longer and use less energy.
Spare bulbs are available from CDA Customer Care or from your local
DIY shop.

DOUBLE POLE SWITCHED
FUSED SPUR OUTLET
USE A 3 AMP FUSE
Mains Electricity
Connection
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
CONNECTED TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
BY A COMPETENT PERSON, USING
FIXED WIRING VIA A DOUBLE POLE
SWITCHED FUSED SPUR OUTLET AND
PROTECTED BY A 3A FUSE.
We recommend that the appliance is connected by a qualified
electrician, who is a member of the N.I.C.E.I.C. and who will comply
with the I.E.T. and local regulations.
The wires in the mains lead of this appliance are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
BLUE = NEUTRAL, BROWN = LIVE.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead for the appliance may
not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals
connecting to the fused spur, proceed as follows:
•The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal
marked N (Neutral), or coloured black.
•The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the
terminal marked L (Live), or coloured red.
If the mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a CDA
approved engineer, agent or similarly qualified person in order to
avoid a hazard.

NOTE: USE A 3A FUSE
Assembly and electrical connection should be carried out by
competent personnel.
When installing this product we recommend you seek the help of
another individual.
IMPORTANT: THIS APPLIANCE IS A CLASS II APPLIANCE
(DOUBLE INSULATED) AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE EARTHED.
DO NOT FIT AN EARTH LEAD TO THIS EXTRACTOR.
Do not mount the isolation switch behind any part of the installation. It
is a requirement that you must be able to isolate the extractor from the
mains electrical supply after installation.
This appliance is intended to be connected to the mains electrical
supply by means of an isolation switch and fused spur and is intended
to be protected by a 3A fuse. The use of a 13A fuse can cause
damage to the internal wiring in the event of a fault, and may also
invalidate the guarantee.
Electrical Information
Mains electrical voltage: 230 – 240Vac.
Total rated power consumption: 123W.

Troubleshooting
Please note:
• Your extractor is equipped with a motor protection device that will
switch o the motor to prevent damage from overheating. This may
happen during cooking when most or all of the zones/burners are
being used simultaneously, or if your extractor is installed lower than
the recommended height above the hob. This is normal, and the
extractor will work again once the motor has cooled suciently.
If your extractor is not working:
1. Check that the mains supply has not been switched o.
2. Check that the fuse in the spur has not blown.
