Frequently Asked Questions - KG80 CDA

How should I clean my CDA KG80 sink?

Clean with warm soapy water and rinse with clean water before wiping dry. Avoid abrasive liquids, powders, or steel pads. For organic stains, soak in biological washing powder or diluted bleach.

Can I use bleach on the sink?

Do not use neat bleach. A dilute bleach solution may be used for cleaning, but avoid contact with the metal waste as it may cause tarnishing.

How do I install the sink?

Place the sink upside-down on the worktop, draw the perimeter, then draw a dotted line 1 cm inside and cut out. Apply the included sealant along the sink perimeter, place it in the hole, and lock the hooks from the center outward in crisscross order.

What do I do if my sink gets scratched?

Minor scratches may be unavoidable; avoid using plastic washing-up bowls that trap grit. For stubborn scratches, consult a professional. The sink surface is designed to resist everyday use.

How long is the warranty?

The sink is guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship for 5 years, provided it is installed correctly and used for domestic purposes.

Can I place hot pans directly in the sink?

No, do not place very hot objects directly on the sink. Use a heat-proof plastic or wooden board to protect the surface.

What should I do about limescale buildup?

In hard-water areas, use a mild limescale remover. Limescale can become stained by colored foods; clean promptly after use.

Does the sink come with mounting hardware?

Yes, the hooks are provided inside the package and should be installed by the installer. The sink does not come with pre-mounted hooks.

What chemicals should I avoid?

Avoid neat bleach, nail polish remover, paint stripper, solvents, brush cleaner, and insecticides. If any contact occurs, wipe immediately with a dry cloth, then wash and rinse.

Can I use the sink for commercial purposes?

No, the warranty covers domestic use only. Commercial use is not covered.

USER MANUAL KG80 CDA

Taking care of your sink

Your CDA sink is manufactured using material developed specifically to withstand the rigours of everyday kitchen use. However, we advise you to follow these precautions to keep the sink in pristine condition:

• Do not use a plastic washing-up bowl in the sink as grit and other particles may become embedded in the bowl and scratch or erode the sink surface. CDA specifically recommend the use of wire sink-baskets and drainer-racks to help protect your sink. Take care to not cut the plastic coating on these accessories with sharp cutlery or the edges of pans, etc.
• Do not use neat bleach or other harsh cleaning agents on the metal sink waste as this may cause tarnishing. This is especially important if the waste is of the brass/brass finish type.
• Avoid dropping heavy or sharp objects into the sink as they may scratch or damage the surface.
• The surface of the sink can be affected by certain chemicals e.g. neat bleach, nail polish remover, paint stripper, solvents, brush cleaner and insecticides. If any of these substances come into contact with the sink, wipe off immediately with a dry cloth, wash with mild detergent and rinse with water.
• Do not use abrasive liquids, powders or steel pads to clean the sink as they will damage the sink surface and make it more susceptible to staining. The sink may be cleaned with a dilute bleach solution.
• Do not place very hot objects directly on the sink, place them on a special surface (board) made from wood or heat-proof plastic, etc.
• In hard-water areas, a limescale deposit may build up on the sink. The limescale may become stained by coloured foods such as coffee or red wine. If this occurs, we recommend use of a mild limescale remover.

• Particularly stubborn organic stains can be removed effectively by soaking the sink in a biological washing-powder solution, dishwasher powder solution or diluted bleach.
- If the sink comes into contact with acidic materials, rinse immediately with plenty of water and wipe with a soft dry cloth.
- Do not leave rusty objects in contact with the sink. Rust can cause staining, cracking or even permanent damage to the sink surface.
- To avoid staining of the surface do not leave food or other materials with corrosive properties such as juices, salt, vinegar, mustard etc. on the sink for a long time.
• After using the sink, rinse it clean with warm soapy water and rinse with clean water before wiping dry.
• During installation, protect from scratches, scuffs and other damage.
• Do not overtighten or strain plumbing fittings.
- The moulding and edges of the sink must be absolutely level so water flows off the drainer.

To cut out the worktop:

• Place the sink upside-down on the worktop where it will be mounted.
  • Draw the perimeter of the sink on the worktop with a pencil.
• Remove the sink and draw a dotted line, 1 cm inside the perimeter.
  • Make the cut out with suitable tools along the dotted line.

Inserting the sink in the hole of the working surface:

- Inserting the sink in the hole of the working surface. Our sinks are not equipped with pre-mounted hooks, but the hooks are provided inside the sink's package and they should be installed on the sink by the installer.

• Place the special included sealant along the whole perimeter of the sink that will be in contact with the surface.
• Place the sink in the hole and make sure it is centered, then lock the hooks with the adjustment screws from the center outwards in crisscross order.
