Installation
Exercise care when a rangehood is installed in an area where a gas burner is operating. Depend-
ing on the size of the room, the rangehood may draw from the room air that is necessary for
proper combustion of the burner. All Blanco rangehoods are used for indoor application only.
Rangehoods may be installed 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 should only be used when outside extraction is not possible. To ensure maxi-
mum performance when ducting it is important the ducting that carries the fumes away, be as
short and as straight as possible.
When incorporating a rangehood in the design of a kitchen the following points need to be consid-
ered to achieve the most benefit from the rangehood.
1. Ducting from a rangehood carrying the exhaust air, should not exceed a length of three (3)
metres.
2. For ducted installation we recommend using galvanised or similar metal type flue pipe. PVC pipe
is not recommended.
3. Ducting containing a 90° degree bend will encounter a loss in efficiency of approximately 35%.
Additional 90° degree bends can cause losses of up to 15% per bend.
4. Ducting size should always comply with the manufacturers specification.
5. We recommend carbon filters be used when re-circulating the air into the room. There will be
some loss of air movement when carbon filters are fitted.
USE AND MAINTENANCE
• It is recommended to operate the appliance prior to cooking. It is recommended to leave the ap-
pliance in operation for 15 minutes after cooking is terminated in order to completely eliminate
cooking vapours and odours. The proper function of the rangehood is conditioned by the regular-
ity of the maintenance operations, in particular, the active carbon filter.
• The aluminium 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 in-
structions:
-Remove the filters from the rangehood and wash them in a solution of water and neutral liquid de-
tergent, leaving to soak.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
-The aluminium filters may also be washed in the dishwasher. The aluminum 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 carbon filters are
not washable nor re-useable and must be replaced at maximum every four months. The satura-
tion 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 filters.
• Clean the fan and other surfaces of the rangehood regularly using a cloth moistened with a non
abrasive liquid detergent.
• The rangehood lighting is designed for use during cooking and not for prolonged general illumina-
tion of the environment. Prolonged use of the lighting notably reduces the duration (life) of the bulb.
• To replace the halogen lamp. With a small blade, remove the metal surround holding the glass in
place. The lamp can be pulled outward from its socket.
