Frequently Asked Questions - EVP9SS CDA

How do I install the CDA EVP9SS range hood?

Installation should be carried out by a qualified professional. Ensure the hood is mounted at least 65 cm above the hob for gas or 55 cm for electric. Secure the hood using the provided brackets and connect to the mains supply. If using recirculation, install charcoal filters.

How often should I clean the grease filters?

Clean the aluminum grease filters every month under normal use. They can be washed by hand with mild detergent or in a dishwasher at low temperature. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.

Can the EVP9SS be used in recirculation mode?

Yes, the hood can be used in recirculation mode by installing optional charcoal filters. These filters absorb odors and need to be replaced approximately every 6 months.

How do I change the LED lights?

The LED lights are integrated and should only be replaced by a qualified technician. If the lights fail, contact CDA customer service for assistance.

Why is my range hood noisy?

Noise can increase if the grease filters are clogged or the ducting is blocked. Clean the filters and check the ductwork. Normal noise levels are up to 65 dB on maximum speed.

What is the maximum extraction rate?

The maximum extraction rate is up to 650 m³/h. This is achieved on the highest speed setting or intensive mode.

How do I reset the filter saturation indicator?

After cleaning or replacing the filters, press and hold the speed button for about 5 seconds until the indicator light turns off. Refer to the manual for exact procedure.

Can I use charcoal filters with ducted installation?

No, charcoal filters are only used in recirculation mode. In ducted mode, the hood extracts air outside, so no charcoal filters are needed.

What should I do if the hood stops working?

Check the power supply and fuse. Ensure the hood is correctly connected. If it still doesn't work, contact CDA customer service. Do not attempt to repair yourself.

How do I adjust the speed settings?

Use the push buttons on the front panel to select speed 1, 2, or 3. The intensive mode can be activated for 10 minutes and then returns to speed 3.

GENERAL

Carefully read the following important information regarding installation safety and maintenance. Keep this information booklet accessible for further consultations. The appliance has been designed for use in the ducting version (air exhaust to the outside – Fig.1B), filtering version (air circulation on the inside – Fig.1A) or with external motor (Fig.1C).

SAFETY PRECAUTION

1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simultaneously with an open fireplace or burner that depend on the air in the environment and are supplied by other than electrical energy, as the cooker hood removes the air from the environment which a burner or fireplace need for combustion. The negative pressure in the environment must not exceed 4Pa (4x10-5 bar). Provide adequate ventilation in the environment for a safe operation of the cooker hood. Follow the local laws applicable for external air evacuation.

Before connecting the model to the electricity network:

• control the data plate (positioned inside the appliance) to ascertain that the voltage and power correspond to the network and the socket is suitable. If in doubt ask a qualified electrician.
• If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced with another cable or a special assembly, which may be obtained direct from the manufacturer or from the Technical Assistance Centre.

2. WARNING!

In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a danger hazard.

A) Do not check the status of the filters while the cooker hood is operating
B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or straight after prolonged use of the lighting installation.
C) Flambè cooking is prohibited underneath the cooker hood
D) Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters and a fire hazard
E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the overheated oil may become a fire hazard
F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any maintenance. G) This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision
H) Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance
I) There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the rangehood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels
L) There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Assembly and electrical connections must be carried out by specialised personnel.

• Electric Connection

The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth cable is necessary.

The connection to the mains is carried out as follows: BROWN = L line

BLUE = Nneutral

If not provided, connect a plug for the electrical load indicated on the description label. Where a plug is provided, the cooker hood must be installed in order that the plug is easily accessible.

An omnipolar switch with a minimum opening of 3mm between contacts, in line with the electrical load and local standards, must be placed between the appliance and the network in the case of direct connection to the electrical network.

- The minimum distance between the support surfaces of the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of the cooker hood must be at least 65 cm. If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be placed outside the lower part. Do not connect the cooker hood exhaust to the same conductor used to circulate hot air or for evacuating fumes from other appliances generated by other than an electrical source. Before proceeding with the assembly operations, remove the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.7) so that the unit is easier to handle.

In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.

• FIXING TO THE WALL

Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.2). Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position to the wall units. When the appliance has been adjusted, definitely fix the hood using the screws A (Fig.5). For the various installations use screws and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product, check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the hood is to be fixed.

• FIXING THE DECORATIVE TELESCOPIC FLUE

Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening. Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.3). Then fix it to the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.3) in such a way that it is in line with your hood and respecting the distance from the ceiling indicated in Fig.2. Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig.5).

Insert the upper flue into the lower flue. Fix the lower flue to the hood using the screws B provided (Fig.5), extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with the screws B (Fig.3).

If your appliance has the lower connections indicated as in Fig. 4 A, the fixing to be carried out is that shown in Fig. 6 A

To transform the hood from a ducting version into a filtering version, ask your dealer for the charcoal filters and follow the installation instructions.

• FILTERING VERSION

Install the hood and the two flues as described in the paragraph for installation of the hood in ducting version. To assemble the filtering flue refer to the instructions contained in the kit. If the kit is not provided, order it from your dealer as accessory. The charcoal filters must be fitted in the ducting unit located inside the hood (Fig.8).

USE AND MAINTENANCE

- It is recommended to operate the appliance prior to cooking. It is recommended to leave the appliance in operation for 15 minutes after cooking is terminated in order to completely eliminate cooking vapours and odours.

The proper function of the cooker hood is conditioned by the regularity of the maintenance operations, in particular, the active carbon filter.

• The anti-grease filters capture the grease particles suspended in the air, and are therefore subject to clogging according to the frequency of the use of the appliance.
  In order to prevent fire hazard, it is recommendable to clean the filter at a maximum of 2 months by carrying out the following instructions:
• Remove the filters from the cooker hood and wash them in a solution of water and neutral liquid detergent, leaving to soak.
• Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
• The filters may also be washed in the dishwasher.
  The aluminium panels may alter in colour after several washes. This is not cause for customer complaint nor replacement of panels.
• The active carbon filters purify the air that is replaced in the environment. The filters are not washable nor re-useable and must be replaced at maximum every four months. The saturation of the active carbon filter depends on the frequency of use of the appliance, by the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning the anti-grease filters.
• Clean the fan and other surfaces of the cooker hood regularly using a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol or non abrasive liquid detergent.
• The illumination installation is designed for use during cooking and not for prolonged general illumination of the environment. Prolonged use of the illumination installation notably reduces the duration of the bulb.
