INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth cable is necessary. The connection to the
mains is carried out as follows: BROWN = L line BLUE = N neutral If not provided, connect a plug for the electri-
cal load indicated on the description label. Where a plug is provided, the rangehood must be installed in order
that the plug is easily accessible. An omnipolar switch with a minimum aperture 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.
• If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be placed outside the lower part. Do
not connect the range 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 op-
lter(s) (Fig.3 G) 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.
Installation
To properly install the rangehood, proceed as follows: 1.Fixing the rangehood to the lower part of a wall unit
2.Select method of operation (extraction or re-circulation).
Fitting the rangehood to the lower part of a wall unit.
The appliance should be embedded into the wall unit or another support. This process should be carried out
by using 4 screws suitable for the kind of unit following the instructions for the drilling of the holes as shown
in (Fig

The saturation of the active carbon depends on the frequent use of the rangehood, from the type of food cooked
the rangehood. Fit the pivots in the appropriate slots (Fig 4) then, using the appropriate handles, and with a
turning movement towards the top slot in the pivots (c) which are located next to the handle. To do this opera-
tion remove the grill. The air is put back into the atmosphere via the connection tube passing through
the cabinet to the linking ring as shown below.
Rangehood Installation
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.
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 maximum 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 considered to

• 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 illumination of the
environment. Prolonged use of the lighting notably reduces the duration (life) of the bulb.
