GENERAL
These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. Carefully read the following important information
regarding installation safety and maintenance . You MUST read them carefully before installing or using the
appliance.
It is most important that this instruction book be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the
appliance be sold or transferred , always ensure that the book is left with the appliance in order that the new
owner can get to know the function of the appliance and the relevant warnings .
The appliance has been designed for use in the ducted version (Fig.1B) and recirculated version (Fig.1A).
SAFETY PRECAUTION
1.Take care when the rangehood is operating in the same room as an open replace 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 replace 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
qualied 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 inrm 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 lters 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 re 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 lters and a re 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 re 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.

Warning for Installation:
a)The exhaust air must not be discharged into a ue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances
burning gas or other fuels.
b)The minimum distance from the hob surface and the lowest part of the range hood must not be less than
60cm. If the instructions for the hob specify a greater distance, please consider this.
c) The regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air have to be fullled.
• Electric Connection
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 electrical load indicated on the rating 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.
If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be placed outside the lower part.
Do not connect the rangehood 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 lter(s) (Fig.6) 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.
• We recommend the use of an air exhaust pipe with a diameter of 150. If a pipe with a smaller diameter is
used, the eciency of the product may be reduced and its operation may become noisier.
• FIXING TO THE WALL
Depending on the installation use screws and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced
concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product, check that they
are suitable for the type of wall on which the hood is to be xed.
Drill suitable holes A as per the dimension indicated (Fig.2) Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in
horizontally.
Secure the hood to the wall using screws A through the holes in the hood in the position shown (Fig.4).
• FIXING THE DECORATIVE TELESCOPIC FLUE
Arrange the electrical power supply within the area of the decorative ue. If your appliance is to be
installed in the ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening.
Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper ue (Fig.3) x it to the wall using the screws A (Fig.3) so
it is in line with your hood and is 20 mm from the ceiling as indicated in Fig.2.
Connect the ange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig.4). Insert the upper ue into the
lower ue and rest above the frame. Extract the upper ue up to the b racket and x it with the screws B
(Fig.3).
To transform the hood from a ducting version to re-circulating, please follow the instructions below. Charcoal
lters are available as an optional extra.
• RECIRCULATING VERSION
Install the hood and the two ues as described in the paragraph for installation of the hood in ducting version.
Assemble the charcoal lters refer to the instructions contained in the kit.
The lters must be applied to the suction unit positioned inside the hood. They must be centered by turning
them 90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (g. 7).

ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
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.
Overhead Clearances.
Any combustible construction, rangehood or exhaust fan shall be installed accordance with the manufactures
instructions. However, in no case shall the clearance between the highest part of the HOB of the cooking appliance
(including the trivets for gas cookers) and a rangehood be less than 600mm or, for an overhead exhaust fan , 750mm
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
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
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.
Recirculated to kitchen area via bulkhead Recirculated to kitchen area via ceiling cavity
Ducted to atmosphere through wall Ducted to atmosphere through roof

USE AND MAINTENANCE•
It is recommended to operate the appliance prior to cooking.
• It is recommended to leave the appliance in operation for 15 minutes after cooking is terminated in order to
help eliminate cooking vapors and odors.
The proper function of the rangehood is conditioned by the regularity of the maintenance operations,
inparticular, the active carbon lter.
• The anti-grease lters 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 re hazard, it is recommendable to clean the lter at a maximum of 2 months by carrying
out the following Instructions:
- Remove the lters from the rangehood and wash them in a solution of water and neutral liquid detergent,
leaving to soak.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
- The lters 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 lters help to purify the air that is replaced in the environment. The lters are not washable nor reusable and must be replaced at maximum every four months. The saturation of the active carbon
lter depends on the frequency of use of the appliance, by the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning
the anti-grease lters.
• Clean the fan and other surfaces of the rangehood regularly using a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol
or non abrasive liquid detergent.
• The light function is designed for use during cooking and not for prolonged general illumination of the
environment. Prolonged use will notably reduce the duration of the bulb.
LIGHT REPLACEMENT - INCANDESCENT .
• Remove the aluminium lters from the range hood.
• Un-screw the globe.
• Replace the globe.
• Re-install the aluminium lters.
Globe: Tubular E14 40Watts 240volts
• LIGHT REPLACEMENT - HALOGEN
12 volt 20 W Halogen.
