IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CORRECT DISPOSAL OF THE
PRODUCT IN ACCORDANCE WITH EC DIRECTIVE 2012/19/EU.
At the end of its working life, the product must be taken to a special
local authority waste collection centre or to a dealer providing
appliance recycling services.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible
negative consequences for the environment and health. It also
enables the constituent materials to be recovered, saving both energy
and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household
appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out
wheeled dustbin.
Please note:
• Induction hobs become hot and remain hot during and immediately
after use. Do not touch the hob until it has been allowed to cool.
• Keep children away from the appliance when in use.
• Never use the hob top for storage.
• Pan handles should never stand out beyond the edge of the
worktop. This will help to avoid children reaching them.
• Do not lean over the hob when it is in use.
• Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
• Ensure the base of the saucepan is clean and dry before placing it
on the hob.
• Avoid hard shocks from cookware – the vitroceramic glass surface
is highly resistant but not unbreakable.
6
• Do not place hot lids flat on the hob top. A “suction” eect could
cause damage to the hob.
• Do not drag cookware across the hob top: in the long term, this
could cause damage to the hob.
• Do not store cleaning or flammable products in the unit below the
hob.
• Always use appropriate cookware.
• Do not cook unopened tins of food directly on the hob.
• Never put cooking foil or plastic materials on the ceramic surface
when the hob is hot. These materials could melt and cause
damage to the hob.
• This hob (Class 3) has been designed for use only as a cooking
appliance. Any other use should be considered incorrect and
therefore dangerous.
FOR THOSE WITH HEART PACEMAKERS OR ACTIVE IMPLANTS:
The function of this hob conforms to current electromagnetic
interference standards and thus is in total compliance with legal
requirements (2004/108/CE directives).
To avoid interference between your hob and a pacemaker, your
pacemaker must be designed and programmed in compliance with
the regulations that apply to it. As such, CDA guarantee only that our
product is compliant.
With regard to the compliance of the pacemaker or any potential
incompatibility, you should obtain information from the manufacturer
or your attending physician.

Important
• Do not use the hob if the glass surface is cracked or damaged
to prevent the risk of electric shock. Disconnect it from the
power supply.
• Ensure that the power cable of a connected electrical appliance
near the hob is not in contact with the cooking zones.
• NEVER run an empty pan on an induction hob (nor any hob).
• Do not switch on the hob until a pan has been placed on it.
• Keep the control panel(s) clean and free from grease, grime or
debris as these can hamper activity or cause unwanted activation.
• Do not lean over pans when they are warming up or cooking.
• Do not pour any liquids down the extractor area. If any spillages
do occur, follow the care and maintenance section on page 24.
Saving energy
Using energy in a responsible way not only saves money but also
helps the environment. The following will help you to save energy:
• Use proper pans for cooking. A saucepan should never be smaller
than a zone. Always remember to cover any pans.
• Ensure pans and the hob are kept clean. Soils can prevent heat
transfer and repeatedly burnt-on spillages can often only be
removed by products which cause damage to the environment.
• Do not uncover the pan too often (a watched pot never boils!).
Be sure to recycle all of the packaging. All packaging materials
used are 100% recyclable.

Cooking on Induction
The principle of induction cooking is based on magnetic eect.
When you put your cookware on an induction zone and switch it on,
the electronic boards in the hob produce induced currents in the base
of the cookware and instantly raise its temperature. This heat is then
transferred to the food inside the cookware.
The best cookware to use with induction cooking has thick flat bases,
as the heat will be better distributed meaning cooking is more even.
Most cookware is compatible with induction cooking.
There are three ways to check the suitability of your cookware:
1. Using a magnet to see if the base of the pan is magnetic: if the
magnet sticks, then the cookware is compatible.
2. Place the pan on one of the cooking zones and switch the
zone on. If the display continues to show the selected power
level then the cookware is compatible. If the display shows “ ”,
the cookware cannot be used on an induction hob.
3. Check the instructions, base or packaging of the pans for the
symbols indicating suitability for use with induction:

Using your hob(s)
To switch a hob on
• To switch the power on, touch and hold the on/o sensor (9) for
approximately one second. The hob will beep and all cooking zone
indicators will show ‘0’. The inductor modules will click faintly when
turning the hob on (and o).
Please note: If a power level is not set within ten seconds, the hob
will switch o automatically.
To activate a zone and set a power level
• Simply set the desired power level using the heat setting slider
sensor (11). The standard power levels range from 1 (minimum) to
9 (maximum). The hob will then begin heating providing that the
correct cookware is being used.
To deactivate a zone
• Simply use the heat setting slider sensor (11) to return the heat
setting to '0' for that zone.
• If switching o multiple zones, the above step needs to be taken
for each zone. When all the zones are at '0', the hob will switch o
automatically after approximately ten seconds.
• Alternatively, to switch o the hob immediately, touch and hold the
on/o sensor (9) for approximately two seconds.
Please note: Any zones that are still hot to the touch will display the
symbol ' ' provided the mains power supply is not interrupted.
11
Booster function
The hob is equipped with a booster function on all zones, allowing a
higher power level than the maximum for approximately ten minutes.
To activate the booster on a zone
• Regardless of whether a power level is already set, simply touch
the '+' symbol at the end of the slider for the relevant zone. 'P'
will be displayed on the cooking zone indicator to show that the
booster is on.
• The booster function automatically deactivates after 10 minutes of
usage. The cooking zone will continue to operate at its nominal
power at this point. The booster can be reactivated after this time
provided the hob's internal components have not overheated.
To deactivate the booster on a zone
• To cancel the booster at any time, use the heat setting slider sensor
(11) to return the heat setting to '0' or an alternative level.
Please note: The booster function can not be used on all zones at
once. If two zones in a vertically aligned module are placed on boost,
then the first zone to have been placed on boost will be reduced
to power level 5. Additionally, a bridged pair of zones can not be
boosted. This is to help protect the hob's internal components.
If the appliance's electronic circuits or induction coils overheat
whilst the booster function is in operation then the function will be
automatically deactivated and the zone will continue to operate at its
nominal power. The booster function will be available again once the
internal components have been cooled suciently.
12
It is normal for a high pitched whirring noise to begin whilst the
booster function is in use. This is the cooling fan inside the hob
keeping the internal components as cool as possible.
If a pot is removed from the cooking zone whilst the booster function
is in use, the ten minute countdown should continue.
Operating time limiter
In addition to the booster deactivation timer, each zone has an
operating time limiter to increase overall eciency and to prevent
the hob from being left on indefinitely. If a zone's heat setting is
not changed for a specific duration then the associated zone is
automatically switched o and residual heat indicator activated.
Zones can still be used as normal in accordance with the operating
instructions. The operating time limiter is set according to the last
selected heat setting. The maximum operating times for each setting
can be found below.

Timer/Minute minder
The hob is equipped with a timer that allows a finish time to be set for
the end of cooking on any zone, between a minimum of 1 minute and
a maximum of 119 minutes. This timer can be used separately for
each zone, and the timer activity indicator (3) will illuminate faintly
on each zone for which it is set and remain brightest on the first
zone to end. Once the timers are set, the timer display will show the
time remaining on the first zone to finish cooking. In normal use, the
timer ending prompts the zone heating to end as well. However the
timer can also be used as a minute minder to count down time without
halting heating.
Please note: At the end of the timer, the selected zone will switch o
and the timer indicators will flash. The hob will beep for approximately
two minutes. To switch o the beep, touch the timer minus and plus
setting sensors (5 & 7) simultaneously. This beeping also occurs after
the minute minder time has elapsed and the same process to switch
o the beep applies.
If no time is set within 5 seconds of activating the timer, then it will
deactivate automatically.
To set the timer
• First switch on the hob if necessary and set the desired zone to the
power level required.
• Touch the timer minus setting sensor (5) and the timer plus setting
sensor (7) simultaneously. The timer display (6) will illuminate.
• A clock symbol (the timer activity indicator) will appear next to the
power level of the leftmost active zone. This clock indicates which
14
zone the subsequent timer adjustment will aect.
• Next, use the timer plus setting sensor (7) and the timer minus
setting sensor (5) to set the desired timer duration. The timer is
increased in 1 minute increments per each press of the + or -
sensors. If you hold your finger down on either sensor, after
a few seconds, the time will increase by 5 minute increments.
Continuing to hold your finger down will increase the time by 10
minute increments.
To set the timer on multiple zones
• To time each zone when multiple zones are running, set the time for
one zone, as per the section ‘To set the timer’. Wait for
approximately 4 seconds for the time to engage and begin
counting down before switching zones. The timer display (6) will
revert to the soonest time to end.
• Touch the timer minus and plus setting sensors (5 & 7) repeatedly
to cycle through the zones until the timer activity indicator for the
desired zone is lit. Each press will cycle the zone timer one zone to
the right. The zone for which timer adjustment is active will display
a bright clock symbol. Any zones which already have a timer set will
display a dimly lit clock symbol.
• Next, use the timer plus setting sensor (7) and the timer minus
setting sensor (5) to set the desired timer duration. Wait for
approximately 4 seconds for the time to engage and begin
counting down before switching zones. The timer display (6) will
revert to the soonest time to end.
To cancel the timer
• If multiple zones are in use then you will need to touch the timer
15
minus and plus setting sensors (5 & 7) repeatedly to cycle through
the zones until the timer activity indicator for the desired zone is
illuminated brightly.
• Reduce the time on the timer display (6) to 0.00 using the timer
minus setting selector (5). Wait for approximately 4 seconds for the
timer to confirm cancellation before moving on to another zone.
To set the minute minder
• Switch the hob on using the on/o sensor (9) if necessary.
• With no heat level set, touch the timer minus setting sensor (5) and
the timer plus setting sensor (7) simultaneously. The timer display
(6), and the clock symbol beneath it, will illuminate. If a heat level
is set, press the minus and plus setting sensors simultaneously
as many times as necessary until the clock symbol between the
timer sensors is lit.
• Next, use the timer plus setting sensor (7) and the timer minus
setting sensor (5) to set the desired minute minder duration. The
entry will confirm after approximately 4 seconds and begin counting
down.
• Once the set time has elapsed, an acoustic signal will begin to
sound for approximately two minutes. To cancel this signal, press
the timer minus setting sensor (5) and timer plus setting sensor (7)
simultaneously.
To cancel the minute minder
• Press the timer minus and plus setting sensors (5 & 7)
simultaneously to activate timer adjustment (signified by solidly lit
decimal point) and then reduce the time on the timer display (6) to
0.00 using the timer minus setting selector (5).
16
Pause function
The hob is equipped with a pause function that allows the user to
suspend the hob's operation for a brief period of time and to easily
continue cooking when convenient from the previously assigned
settings. This is particularly useful when your attention is drawn from
the hob, i.e. answering the door.
To activate the pause function
• At least one hob zone must be active. Press the ‘pause function
sensor’ (8). All cooking zone indicators will show a pause symbol (II)
and the pause function sensor LED will illuminate.
To deactivate the pause function and resume cooking
• Press the pause function sensor (8) so that the Pause function
LED goes out. A heat setting slider will then illuminate indicating
a swiping motion. Run the ball of your finger from left to right
to deactivate the pause, as the light indicates. The hob should then
resume cooking as it was before the pause function was activated.
Please note: The pause function can only be used for a maximum of
10 minutes. If the hob is not reactivated within this time then the hob
switches itself o.
The pause sensor can be used to restore the last-set cooking
settings if the on/o sensor (9) is accidentally activated and the hob
switched o during use. Simply switch the hob back on using the on/
o sensor (9) and press the pause function sensor (8). This feature
is only available for approximately 7 seconds after the hob has been
switched o.
17
Once power has been restored the pause function LED will flash to
indicate that the previous settings can still be restored.
Keep warm function
Each zone is equipped with a keep warm function that is designed to
keep food at a stable temperature. This allows for the serving of food
to be delayed and also for the melting of butter or chocolate.
• A flat-bottomed pan must be used so that the temperature can be
accurately measured by the detector within the heating zone.
• Due to the potential for the spread of bacteria it is not advisable to
keep food warm for more than two hours.
• There are three temperature levels that can be set: 42°C, 70°C and
94°C.
To activate the keep warm function
• Touch the desired zone’s keep warm function sensor (12) either
once, twice or three times.
• Touching the keep warm function sensor (12) once will activate the
42°C heating level.
• Touching the keep warm function sensor (12) twice will activate the
70°C heating level.
• Touching the keep warm function sensor (12) three times will
activate the 94°C heating level.
Please note: The keep warm setting indicators will display the ( )
symbol when the 42°C heating level is active, the ( ) symbol will be
displayed when the 70°C heating level is active and the ( ) symbol
18
will be displayed when the 94°C heating level is active. The cooking
zone indicator will display a .
To deactivate the keep warm function
• Touch the relevant zone’s keep warm function sensor (12) the
required number of times until the display reads ‘0’ again.
Please note: Any zones that are still hot to the touch will display an
' ' provided the mains power supply is not interrupted.
Bridge function
The hobs are equipped with a bridge function which allows you to
use two heating zones with just one zone's controls. This function is
intended for use with pans such as fish kettles and is available for all
zones. However, only vertically aligned zones can be bridged.
To bridge zones
Touch both heat setting slider sensors (11) of the zones that you want
to bridge. A successful zone bridge will be signified by the bridge
function indicator (4) of both zones illuminating. Only one cooking
zone indicator (2) will be lit however, and it is this zone’s controls that
should be used to control the bridge.
To cancel the bridge
Simply touch the same two sliders that were used to activate the
bridge function. If the bridge has been successfully cancelled then
the two zone indicators that were bridged will each display a ‘0’. The
zones will now be individually operational.
19
Please note: Pans placed on bridged zones must always cover the
vertical markings (II) on the zones;
Control lock
To prevent accidental use or inadvertent setting
changes, the hob has a control lock which disables
controls. Disconnecting the appliance from the mains will
deactivate the control lock.
To activate the control lock
Turn on the hob, set a power level if required, and then touch and
hold the lock sensor (10) for approximately 1 second. The hob should
beep and the LED above the sensor should illuminate. The hob will
now be significantly more protected from inadvertent use. The on/o
sensor (9) can still be used to switch the hob o but when it is turned
back on the lock will still be active.
To deactivate the control lock
To switch o the lock, switch on the hob if necessary and then touch
and hold the lock sensor (10) for approximately 1 second. The hob
should beep and the LED above the sensor should extinguish. The
hob should now be usable as normal.
Safety key lock
To further protect the hob from accidental use or to help prevent
children from activating the hob, it also features a more intricate safety
key lock.
20
To activate the safety key lock
Turn on the hob but do not set a power level on any zone. Touch the
lock sensor and the pause sensor simultaneously, release them and
touch the lock sensor again. This must be done within 10 seconds
of switching the hob on. An ‘L’ symbol will appear on all displays to
confirm that the safety key lock is active. You can switch the appliance
o when the lock is active, but it will remain active when you switch
the appliance back on.
To deactivate the safety key lock
• To switch o the safety key lock completely, switch on the hob
if necessary and touch the lock sensor and the pause sensor
simultaneously, release them and touch the pause sensor again.
• To switch o the safety key lock temporarily, switch on the hob
if necessary and touch the lock sensor and the pause sensor
simultaneously. This will mean that the safety key lock will be active
again the next time you switch on the hob and is useful if you want
the controls to be locked all of the time.
Residual heat indicators
The hob is equipped with residual heat indicators to warn when zones
are still hot to the touch after use. The symbol ‘ ’ will show in a zone’s
indicator for a preset period of time after the hob has been used.
IMPORTANT: You should avoid touching any zone whilst the hob is in
use or whilst residual heat indicators are displayed. In the event of a
power cut or failure the residual heat indicators will not illuminate after
the power supply is restored, nor when there is no power supply to
21
the hob, yet the hob zone(s) may still be hot so extra care must be
taken.
Auto-heat function
Every zone is equipped with an auto-heat function, which reduces the
warming up time for the zone.
To activate the auto-heat function on a zone
• Simply set the desired power level using the heat setting slider
sensor (11). Hold your finger in the same position on the slider
sensor for approximately three seconds, until the letter 'A' appears.
• The display will alternate between the set power level and ‘A’ for a
preset period of time, before reducing the power to the originally
selected heat setting. The duration of each auto-heat setting's
limiter is shown in the table below.
To deactivate the auto-heat function
• Simply set the desired power level using the heat setting slider
sensor (11).
Please note: The auto-heat function is not compatible with the keep
warm function or P (Boost).

Using your extractor
To switch the extractor on and adjust the speed
• To switch the power on, touch and hold the on/o sensor for
approximately one second. The extractor should turn on at the
default speed of 2 (represented by 2 solid red bars).
• Use the setting slider to adjust the speed between levels 1 and 4.
To switch the extractor o
• To switch the power o, touch and hold the extractor on/o sensor
for approximately one second.
To set a 10 minute shut o timer
• Touch the timer sensor when any speed is active. This will activate a
10 minute timer, after which the extractor will switch o.
Grease filter saturation
• After approximately 30 hours of total operation, the speed indicators
will all flash simultaneously. This is a sign that the grease filters are
due to be cleaned. Remove the metal grid and the grease filters,
clean the filters using warm, soapy water, dry them and place them
back into the appliance. Press and hold the extractor timer sensor
for approximately 3 seconds when the appliance is on standby to
reset the function.

Ecient use of your hob
The hob is equipped with zones designed to accommodate most
shapes and sizes of pan. For best results, only use pans with flat
bottoms. The most ecient use of the hob is shown below, where the
pan and zone are correctly chosen.
Use pan lids where possible to minimize the energy usage of your
appliance.
Pans placed on the zones must always cover the vertical markings
(II) on a zone. When bridged, the pan(s) must cover both zone’s
markings. Locating the centre of a pan on the zone markings will
ensure optimum eciency.

It is very important that the pans used on the hob are made of a suitable
material and have the correct type of base. The base of the pan and
the hob top must be clean before use to prevent any scratches on the
hob top.
Please note: Extra care should be taken if cast iron pans are used as
these have coarse bases which may damage the hob top.
Care and maintenance
Always disconnect the appliance from the power supply before
undertaking any cleaning or maintenance.
Important:
• Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliance.
• You should use a non-abrasive cleaner to clean the hob top. Any
abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will scratch the surface and could
erase the control panel markings.
• Sugar and starch can cause permanent damage to the surface of
the hob. Wipe away any spillages immediately but be careful given
that the hob top will be hot during and after usage.
• Avoid letting pans boil over where possible to ensure that the need
for cleaning is minimal.
• Always use a soft sponge or cloth where possible. Utensils such as
scouring sponges and some brushes could cause scratches to the
hob top.
• Do not pour any liquids down the extractor area. If any spillages
do occur, switch power o to both the hob and extractor. Allow the
hob to cool and remove the metal grid, grease filters (and charcoal
filters if present), magnetic centre bar and dry up the spillage.

Care to arrange a repair.
The appliance makes a
buzzing noise.
Buzzing noises are normal whilst the hob is in use
(inductor modules functioning) and after the hob has
been used (cooling fan in operation).
The appliance makes
noises similar to whistles,
hisses and pops.
These noises are normal. If several cooking zones
are used at once then the hob can make hissing
or whistling noises due to the frequencies used to
power the inductor modules. Popping noises can
often be heard when pans are being heated.

Troubleshooting - extractor
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.
3. Check that the red power switch on the wiring box has not
been turned o (page 3).
4. Check that the connection lead from the wiring box to the
extractor/hob has not popped out and is fastened properly.
If the performance is not matching the demands of cooking:
Increase the speed if possible. Check that the grease filters are clean,
seated properly and are clear from obstructions. Also, remove the
grease filters (and charcoal filters if present) and check, visually, that
nothing is obstructing the air passages. Switch o the power to
the hob/extractor before doing this. If none of these steps help, try
opening a window or similar means of ventilation provided it is safe to
do so.
If you notice speed 4 reverting to speed 2 or 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, after 6
minutes of operation.
29
If the keys are (temporarily) responding incorrectly or not at all:
If the power supply to the extractor is cut and then restored, the
appliance will run an approximately 15 second diagnostic programme.
During this time the controls may not function properly. There may
also be debris, grease or similar stopping the controls from working
properly. Clean this o if so.
If the speed indicators are flashing:
This is not a fault. After 30 hours of usage all speed indicators will
flash to signal that the grease filter needs to be cleaned. Press the
timer key to reset after cleaning.
If the extractor switches itself o:
The extractor features an automatic switch-o that activates after
approximately 4 hours of continued use if no settings have been
changed.
If any of the potential resolutions in this guide do not resolve your
issue, please contact CDA Customer Care using the contact details

Installation - preparation
The installation of this product must be carried out by suitably
qualified personnel. Always wear adequate PPE (Personal
Protective Equipment) for the tasks at hand. This product may
have sharp edges. This is a 2 person minimum install.
Unpacking the appliance:
Take care not to drop any parts. Check any parts for visible signs of
damage. If any components are damaged, contact your retailer and do
not proceed with installation.
Fitting position of the hob:
This appliance must be, when installed, a minimum of 50mm from any
back wall and a minimum of 55mm away from any adjacent vertical
surfaces, e.g. a tall cupboard end panel. The 55 may be reduced
to 50mm if the adjacent surface is resistant to fire (tiles or steel for
example). The dimensions for this are shown in Fig.7 on page 32.
Ventilation requirements:
This appliance must be installed to allow air to flow freely to the air
intakes and from the air outlet. An air gap of 205mm is recommended
immediately below the hob (this takes into account the depth of the air
box), and a 5mm minimum gap in the worktop, as per Fig. 6.
Failure to allow sucient ventilation could cause problems with
operation or damage to the hob and constitutes incorrect installation,
which is not covered by the product’s warranty.
Wall furniture requirements:
The minimum height of any cabinet immediately above the hob is
31
900mm. The minimum height of any adjacent units (including light
pelmets) is 400mm, unless they are manufactured from a material
resistant to fire (steel, for example).
Furniture requirements:
We recommend fitting this appliance within a 900mm or 1000mm
base unit. Ensure that the unit you fit the appliance within does not
hamper or foul the ventilation fans on the underside of the hob(s). A
minimum gap of 50mm all around the underside/edges of the hob
(with the exception of the air box area, Fig. 6) applies. Normally, your
unit will need a 410mm x 410mm hole for the motor box (Fig. 8).
If the appliance’s extracted air is to be re-circulated through
charcoal filters, a 5mm ventilation gap in the plinth all around the
entire perimeter of the island, or front of the unit run, will need to
be included. It is also possible to fit a ventilation grill in the plinth
line where the motor has been installed to allow air to circulate.
Important notes:
• Do not position this appliance above a refrigeration unit. The heat
generated may cause the refrigeration unit to fail.
• This appliance is designed to be installed into cabinet units capable
of withstanding temperatures of 100°C +.
• Never place perishable foods, cleaning products or flammable items
in any cupboard below the appliance.
• Ensure that the top rail is removed prior to installation, and that
no unit cross member is blocking the hob air outlets.
• If the appliance is to be located above an accessible unit or
working drawer(s), a partition panel must be fitted first, as per
Fig. 6 on page 32.

Flush or inset installation of the hob:
Depending on whether you would like the hob to be inset or flush fit
into the worktop, the cutout requirements are slightly dierent:
IMPORTANT: When fitting the hob into the worktop, you should never
seal it in place with silicone sealant or similar means. The appliance
may need to be removed at a later date for servicing.
The appliance should be installed with sucient ventilation so
ambient temperatures (e.g. if an oven is installed nearby) do
not exceed 60°C. Such temperatures will cause issues with the
controls.

Locate the motor box and attach the conduit chamber to it using the
screws provided, as per Fig. 15. Loosely attach the chimney conduits
to the base section, raise them up to the hob extractor outlet and
fit them as though you were completing the conduit section install.
Whilst another person supports the sections, ensure that everything is
aligned and nothing is being strained or twisted. Then, if you haven’t
already prepared the area and provided you are running the ducting
under the unit(s), draw a 410 x 410mm square around the motor box,
remove the box and conduits and cut the hole in the base of the
unit. Replace all of the components in the same order as above and
secure the lower conduit to the motor box as per Fig. 17.

IMPORTANT: Secure the metal wiring box (indicated in Fig.
22) at least 10cm above floor level and at least 65cm from gas
appliances, heat sources and the hob/extractor surface of the
appliance itself. Do not place near water inlets or outlets.
Ducting
The ducting used should be rigid pipe of a constant diameter and
must be manufactured from fire retardant material, produced to BS
476 or DIN 4102-B1.
Wherever possible utilise rigid circular pipe which has a smooth
interior, rather than the expanding concertina type ducting. The
lengths of ducting with minimal eect on performance are as follows:
• 4 metres with 1 x 90° bend.
• 3 metres with 2 x 90° bends.
• 2 metres with 3 x 90° bends.
Please note: Ducting components and ducting kits are optional
accessories and have to be ordered, they are not automatically
supplied with the hood. Use of ducting of a lesser diameter than
the flanges supplied will aect performance and increase the noise
produced by the extractor. Longer ducting can be used but the
performance of the extractor will likely be reduced.
Note that the ducting should be secured and sealed to the vent outlet
pipe / valve using appropriate jubilee clips or securing means.
40
Connecting the ducting
You can use either the air outlet on the right of the motor box or the air
outlet on the left, depending upon the install requirements. If you need
to change the position of the outlet flange, cover the exposed side
with the blanking plate provided and four screws. The outlet which is
not to be used must always be covered with the metal blanking plate.
There are four flanges supplied to suit your install;
230 x 80mm to 150mm circular
230 x 80mm (this can be used for rigid rectangular ducting)
220 x 90mm (this can be used for rigid rectangular ducting)
218 x 55mm
If you are re-circulating through charcoal filters and not ducting
it outside, we recommend fitting the supplied flange that has a
measurement of 218 x 55 mm.
All flanges should be attached to the motor box and secured with a
suitable means and then sealed with the tape provided.
