) or with external motor
(Fig.1C)
.
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 is 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) The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or men-
tal capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervised or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a responsible person for their safely.
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 that is frying as any 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 the 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, as directed on page 9.
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.
N)
Caution:
Accessible parts may become hot when used with a cooking appliance.
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 between the supporting surface for the cooktop vessels on the hob and the lowest
part of the rangehood:
* When the rangehood is located above a gas appliance, this distance shall be 65cm.
* If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be taken into account.
(The distance of 65cm can be reduced for non combustible parts of rangehoods and parts operating at safety
extra low voltage provided these parts do not give access to live parts if deformed).
*Distance may be reduced to 60cm to align with the AGA code.
c) The regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air have to be fulfilled.
d) All Blanco rangehoods are used for indoor application/installation only.
