SAFETY PRECAUTION
1.Take care when the rangehood is operating in the same room as an open fireplace or burner that requires
air in the environment and uses an energy source other than electrical energy – this because the rangehood
removes air from the environment which a burner or fireplace may need for combustion. The negative pressure
in the environment must not exceed 4Pa (4x10-5 bar).
2. Provide adequate ventilation in the environment for a safe operation of the rangehood.
3. Follow the local laws applicable for external air evacuation.
4. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
WARNING !
In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a danger hazard.
A) This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
B) Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
C) Do not check or remove the filters when the rangehood is operating.
D) Flambè cooking is prohibited underneath the rangehood.
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) Do not touch lighting or adjacent areas when lighting is on - and for a period of time after using the light.
H) Avoid leaving cooktop on (gas and electric) without the saucepan covering the burner or cooking zone.
This is because heat transferring upwards to the rangehood will be damaging to the filters and a fire hazard.
I) Ensure adequate ventilation of the room where the rangehood is used at the same time as appliances
burning gas or other fuels. Exercise care when a rangehood is installed in an area where a gas burner is
operating. Depending on the size of the room, the rangehood may draw from the room air that is necessary
for proper combustion of the burner.
J) Ensure the rangehood is cleaned frequently.
L) There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.
M) For any repairs always contact an authorised Technical Customer Service Centre and ask for original
spare parts. Repairs by untrained people may lead to damage and void warranty.
Warnings for Installation:
a) The exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances
burning gas or other fuels.
b) The minimum distance from the cooktop surface and the lowest part of the range hood must not be less
than 65cm. If the instructions for the cooktop specify a greater distance, please consider this.
c) The regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air have to be fulfilled.
d) All Blanco rangehoods are used for indoor application/installation only.
