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 eectively 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 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. After rinsing and drying,
replace the filter. Cleaning the grease filter 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 filter 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 filter, 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 filter, 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 grease filter as described
above. Remove any old charcoal filter that is in place by removing
the securing screw. Take a new charcoal filter and fit it into position
behind where the grease filter sits. Use the screw in the filter aperture
to hold the charcoal filter in place. Then, re-fit the grease filter.

Changing the light bulbs

IMPORTANT: DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING
OF THE EXTRACTOR WITHOUT FIRST SWITCHING OFF THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU ALWAYS
WEAR PPE (PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT) WHEN
CARRYING OUT MAINTENANCE.

DO NOT TOUCH SURROUNDING AREAS NOR CHANGE A BULB
DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE AS THE BULBS (AND
SURROUNDS) WILL BE EXTREMELY HOT. ALLOW TO COOL
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY WORK.

To change a bulb, press on the side of the bulb surround marked
‘PUSH’. The cover should click and then swing open. Using a gloved,
or similarly protected, hand remove the old bulb and insert a new one.
Close the cover until it clicks.

Please note: Avoid touching a new bulb with bare fingers as grease
and other deposits left on the glass of the bulb can lead to premature
failure.

11

Installation

When installing this product we strongly recommend you seek the
help of another 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 an 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 gas hob, the minimum
distance between the bottom edge of the extractor and hob must
exceed 750mm.

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.

12

Fig. 3

There are images below showing
the extractor dimensions (Fig. 3) and
an exploded view of the installation
components. (Fig. 4). These are
intended to help with installing the
extractor.

Taking into account the extractor
dimensions, and the advice
regarding installation height as
per page 11, roughly mark the
screw hole positions for the ceiling
bracket (shown in Fig. 5).

Ensure that you are happy with
where the extractor will be and the
height it will sit at above the hob or
surface below.

Ducting and ventilation

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 ecient your extractor will be.

You may wish, at this stage, to fit the ceiling bracket (Fig. 5). Use

fixings (e.g. wall plugs) suitable for the surface to which the extractor is

to be mounted.

Before cutting/drilling through any surfaces, ensure that adequate

measures have been taken to ensure no electrical cables or similar

lie above/behind.

Mounting the
extractor

Remove the motor group and
housing by first removing the four
screws holding the group within
the body. Two of these screws are
pictured in Fig. 6. There are two
more on the opposite side.

Raise the motor group and
housing slightly and undo the
cable connections that connect
the wiring to the motor group,
as per Fig. 7. Remove the motor
group from the extractor body.

Attach the motor group and
housing to the lower frame piece
(D in Fig. 4 on page 12) as per Fig.

8.

Attach the upper frame piece (C
in Fig. 4 on page 12) to the ceiling
bracket and fit the chimney piece
support brackets as per Fig. 9.

Attach the lower frame piece and
motor group to the upper frame
piece at the required height as per

Fig. 6

Fig. 7

Fig. 8

so, remove the chimney piece
and peel o the protective film.
Carefully place the chimney piece
back inside the extractor body.

With the help of at least one other
individual, lift the extractor body
up to meet the frame. Whilst one
supports the body, reconnect
the cable connectors that you
disconnected as per Fig. 7.

Re-attach the motor group and
housing to the extractor body
using the screws you removed as
per Fig. 6.

Total rated power consumption: 320W

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 18.

(continued on page 18)

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
