You can clean your extractor effectively 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 shouldremove the grease filter and clean it 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.

To remove the grease filter

• Open the hinged panel as shown in Fig. 3.
• Push in the button on the handle and then pull down on the filter at the top as shown in Fig. 4.
• When you have released it at the top, then you can pull the filter out completely.

After rinsing and drying, reassemble the grease filter to the hood by reversing the removal process.

Please note:

Cleaning the grease 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)

To ensure best performance of your extractor, you should replace the charcoal filter every four to six months, depending on use.

To attach a charcoal filter:

• Remove the grease filter as described above.
• Offer up the charcoal filter so that the magnetic pins are facing upwards, one to the rear and one to each side. The filter will be held in place by magnetic force.
  • Finally, replace the grease filter.

IMPORTANT: Steam cleaners must not be used to clean this appliance.

The LED Lights

The light bulbs are high efficiency 3V 3W LEDs.

These lights are designed to last for the lifetime of the product and are not user-replaceable. In the unlikely event of a problem with these lights contact CDA Customer Care for assistance.

The lights are designed for use during cooking and not for general room illumination. Extended use of the lights can reduce the life span of the LED bulbs.

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:

Green & Yellow = Earth

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 green and yellow must be connected to the terminal marked “E” (Earth) or coloured green.
• 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.

Note: Use a 3A Fuse.

Assembly and electrical connection should be carried out by specialised personnel.

When installing this product we recommend you seek the help of another individual.

Electrical Information

Mains electrical voltage: 230 – 240Vac

Total rated power consumption:

126W

If your extractor is not working:

1. Check that the mains supply has not been switched off.
2. Check that the fuse in the spur has not blown.

Mounting Your Extractor

Your extractor can be used to filter and recycle the air within your kitchen, or to extract the air outside.

When installing this appliance over a CDA hob, the clearance between the extractor and the hob must be equal to or exceed 550mm. This instruction overrides the instructions supplied with the CDA hob. (The height should be measured from the top of the hotplates or burners).

Where the extractor is to be installed above a non-CDA hob, the instructions supplied with the hob may dictate that the height required above the hob is greater than 550mm.

	ECA EVA
A 138 138
B 282 282
C 85 85
D 75 75

IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED WITH A 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.

Installation

The metal casing of this appliance has been coated with a preservative to protect it during transport and storage. This should be removed during installation by using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. Always follow the instructions given with the cleaner being used.

When correctly installed, your product meets all safety requirements laid down for this type of product. However, special care should be taken around the rear of the appliance as these areas are not designed or intended to be touched and may contain sharp or rough edges that could cause injury.

Ducting and Ventilation

For best performance and lowest noise output, we recommend the use of 125mm ducting. 100mm ducting may be used but this will reduce performance and increase the noise of the extractor.

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING: ONLY USE THE SCREWS PROVIDED WITH THE EXTRACTOR TO MOUNT THE DUCTING ADAPTOR. THE USE OF LONGER SCREWS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE INTERNAL WIRING WHICH WILL NOT BE COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.
