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 non-abrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner
(including Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control
panel markings.
You can clean your extractor eectively by simply using a dilute
solution of water and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a
clean cloth.
IMPORTANT:
Always protect surfaces immediately beneath the extractor (such
as a hob) with clean, dry towels or similar cushioning items before
carrying out any cleaning or maintenance in case of falling parts/
items.
Removing and cleaning the grease filters
The grease filters should be kept clean to minimise the risk of fire.
At least once a month you should remove and clean the grease
filters with hot soapy water. You can also wash the grease filters in a
dishwasher, ensuring that you place it in an upright position to prevent
damage from other items in the dishwasher. After rinsing and drying,
replace the filters. Cleaning the grease filters in the dishwasher
may lead to discolouration. This is normal and does not constitute
a fault with the appliance.
9
Please note: After 30 hours of use the light button will flash to signal
that the filters needs to be cleaned. With the extractor o, press and
hold the lamp button until it stops flashing to reset after cleaning.
To remove the grease filters, lift the catch on the handle on the grease
filter. It will release at the handle side. Lower it towards you slightly
and then remove it completely. To replace the grease filters, repeat
the steps in reverse.
Changing the charcoal filter (re-circulating only) - Fig. 2
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 remove the middle grease filter. Remove any
old charcoal filter that is in place by sliding it out using the tab. Take a
new charcoal filter and slide it into position as per Fig. 2. Ensure the
tab is left accessible - the tab on the new filter should be visible once
inserted. Then, re-fit the grease filter.

Installation
When installing this product we strongly recommend you seek the
help of at least one other individual. This product may have some
sharp edges. Please take care and wear adequate PPE when
handling.
Installation preparation - height
When the extractor is to be installed above a CDA electric hob, the
minimum distance between the hob and the bottom edge of the
extractor must exceed 650mm.
When the extractor is to be installed above a CDA gas hob, the
minimum distance between the bottom edge of the extractor and
hob must exceed 650mm.
If the instructions provided with your gas hob state that the
required distance between the hob and extractor must be greater
than our measurement, then that is the distance that should be
observed; this is a legal requirement and may lead to your hob
being disconnected from the gas supply and the installation being
reported under RIDDOR (the height should be measured from the
top of the burners).
IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED WITH THE
GAS HOB, THE MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN THE HOB AND
EXTRACTOR MUST BE AT LEAST 760mm. The width of any hob
must not be greater than the width of the extractor installed above
it.

There are images on page 12 showing the extractor dimensions (Fig.
3) and an exploded view of the installation components. (Fig. 5). These
are intended to help with installing the extractor.
Place the extractor on a surface that has been suciently protected
to prevent damage to the surface and/or extractor. Fit bracket F in Fig.
5 to the bottom of the rear of the extractor as per Fig. 4. You will need
to remove two flat-headed screws first and then use these screws
to secure the bracket. When fitting the bracket, please note that the
centre hole on the bracket should align with the rivet on the extractor.
Lie the extractor on its back so that the grease filters and lamps are
accessible. Remove the grease filters and remove the four screws
highlighted in the images below:
Fig. 6 Fig. 7

The underside panel can now
be removed. Manoeuvre it out of
position and disconnect the lamp
connectors. Place the panel (Fig.
8) somewhere safe where it will
neither cause nor receive damage.
Fit bracket D in Fig. 5 to the top of
the motor group as per Fig. 9.
Taking into account the extractor
dimensions, and the advice
regarding installation height as per
page 11, lift the appliance into its
approximate position and mark out
the mounting holes for the bracket
in Fig. 9.
Whilst the people helping you
support the extractor, mark out the
side support holes. There are two
along the left side and two along
the right side. Two of these holes
are shown in Fig. 10. Please note
that you may have to move some of
the wiring to properly access these
holes.

Mounting the extractor
IMPORTANT: Before cutting/drilling through any surfaces, ensure
that adequate measures have been taken to ensure no electrical
cables or similar lie above/behind.
There should be six holes marked
out on the wall to be drilled; two for
the bracket and four for the side
support holes. Proceed to drill out
the marked holes. If you are using
the supplied wall plugs and screws,
an Ø8mm drill bit should suce.
Insert the wall plugs.
Fit the corner blanking plate (E in Fig. 5 on page 12) by securing it to
the bracket on the rear of the extractor as per Fig. 11. You can remove
the protective film now or after installation is complete.
Lift the extractor back into position
against the wall. Secure the
extractor to the corner wall bracket
as per Fig. 12. Continue to support
the extractor’s weight.
Secure the extractor sides to the
walls through the four holes (two of
which are shown in Fig. 10) using
four supplied M5 x 40mm screws.

Ducting, ventilation and final steps
For best performance and lowest noise output, we recommend the
use of 150mm ducting. You can also use smaller diameter ducting but
this will reduce performance and potentially increase the noise level
of the extractor whilst in use. In general, the less ducting you use (i.e.
distance and bends) the more ecient your extractor will be.
IMPORTANT: Before cutting/drilling through any surfaces, ensure
that adequate measures have been taken to ensure no electrical
cables or similar lie above/behind.
Fit the 120mm ducting adaptor (C in Fig 5 on page 12) to the motor
outlet if required. If you are recirculating, then you will need 150mm
ducting to attach to the recirculating bracket piece.
If you are venting the extracted air to the outside, fit the chimney
bracket marked as ‘A’ in Fig. 5 on page 12 as close to the ceiling as
possible whilst bearing in mind the maximum install height as per
Fig. 3 on page 12. Please note that this bracket can also be ceiling-
mounted. You will need four of the supplied wall plugs and M5 x
40mm screws to secure this bracket. Use an 8mm drill bit to prepare
the holes.
If you are recirculating the extracted air back into the kitchen, fit the
recirculating bracket piece marked as ‘B’ in Fig. 5 on page 12 as close
to the ceiling as possible whilst bearing in mind the maximum install
height as per Fig. 3 on page 12. You will need four of the supplied wall
plugs and M5 x 40mm screws to secure this bracket. Use an 8mm drill
bit to prepare the holes.

Fig. 13
Secure the ducting to the motor
outlet using a jubilee clip or similar.
If you are recirculating the extracted
air, fix the ducting to the recirculating
bracket piece, as per Fig. 13. Use a
jubilee clip or similar.
Place the chimney sections on the
extractor, taking care not to damage
either the sections or the extractor.
Raise the inner section up as far as
necessary to meet the support bracket that is being used. Secure the
upper chimney section to the support bracket as per Fig. 14 using the
two supplied M3.9 x 9.5mm screws.
Reattach the panel and lamp connections (that were removed as per
pages 13 and 14) and re-insert the four screws. Test that everything
works.

Troubleshooting
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.
If your lights are not working:
1. Check that the mains supply has not been switched o.
2. Check whether the extractor still extracts on any speed. If not,
check the fuse, as above. If the lights still do not work, contact
CDA Customer Care using the details on page 20.

If you notice speed 4 reverting to speed 3 after approximately 6
minutes:
This is not a fault. Regulations issued by the European Commission in
January 2015 dictate that internal motor extractors with a maximum air
capacity higher than 650m/h must be equipped with a timer device
that automatically switches the speed from ‘4th’, or intensive, to 3rd
after 6 minutes of operation.
If the light button is flashing:
This is not a fault. After 30 hours of usage the light button will flash to
signal that the grease filter needs to be cleaned. Press and hold the
light button to reset after cleaning.
If any of the potential resolutions in this guide do not resolve your
issue, please contact CDA Customer Care using the contact details
