Blanco BIC120X, Use And Care And Installation Manual, Page: 10 / 16

- 10 -
The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:
BROWN =
L line
BLUE = N neutral
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.16) 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.
Perimeter Exhaust System BIC120X.
This system is based on the Venturi Principle :
The air extraction system is defined around the perimeter of the stainless steel panels. The effect of this increases
the intake air flow resulting in a more effective air extraction system.
Before installing the appliance, open the panels (
A , fig. 20) and remove the anti-grease filter(s) ( B , fig. 20).
• We recommend the use of an air exhaust pipe with a diameter of 150. If a pipe with a smaller diameter is used, the
efficiency of the product may be reduced and its operation may become noisier
• Hood assembly
Remove the structure from the packaging and remove the 2 screws A to separate the upper part from the lower part
(fig.2) .
- Position hole template on the ceiling paying attention that the arrow is positioned on the same side as the appliance
controls (Fig.3).
Make 4, Ø8 holes in the ceiling and drive in 3 screws without completely tightening them. Pay attention not to insert
the screw into the hole marked with an
X on the hole template (the screws and expansion plugs must be suitable for
the type of wall).
- Take the upper part of the structure
B (fig.4) and insert the 3 slots onto the 3 screws that are not completely
tightened.
Rotate slightly to fit (fig.4) .
Drive in the fourth screw
X and tighten the remaining 3 to allow definitive blocking of the upper part of structure B
- Take the lower part of the telescopic structure C and insert it into the upper structure B (fig.5).
Adjust the height by referring to the amounts indicated in (fig.15) and block it using the 8 screws G that are supplied
(fig.6).
- Ducted version: fix the flexible pipe to the prepared air evacuation hole (fig 7).
- Recirculating version: fix the flexible pipe to the deflector M and fix screw I as indicated in (Fig.8), the active
carbon filters must be applied to the suction unit positioned inside the hood (Fig.17).
- If your product is fitted with a connector flange, perform the assembly steps indicated in fig. 9 before fixing the
cooker hood to the structure.
Take connector flange
F and fit it to the upper part of the cooker hood suction assembly using the 2 screws E (fig. 9).
- Take the upper chimney piece and fix it to the structure using the 2 screws A (Fig.10).
Join the lower chimney piece with the upper one and fix it carefully using adhesive tape L (Fig.11a).
- Unscrew the 2 screws O , max 3 mm (Fig.11a).
Insert the suction unit inside the structure paying attention that the previously unscrewed screws O , hook into the
slots in the lower part as indicated in (Fig.11b).
Drive in the 3 screws
N (supplied) and tighten the 2 screws O (Fig.11b).
- Fix the air evacuation pipe H (not supplied) onto the connection flange F (Fig.12)
- Remove adhesive tape L and rest the lower chimney piece above the cooker hood (Fig.13).
-If the cooker hood is supplied with a lower chimney piece that must be fixed to the hood body with screws, remove
the anti-grease filters from the hood by acting on the relevant handles (Fig.16 ). Then screw the lower chimney piece
pipe to the inside of the hood, using screws
P (Fig.14). Re-locate the filters in their seat.
Rangehoods may be ducted in two ways:
1. Ducted to the atmosphere (outside).
2. Recirculating.
We recommend ducting to the atmosphere to ensure optimum performance. Recirculating the air back into the room
