Operazione

The BLANCO STELLAR kitchen sink is designed for daily kitchen tasks. Its 60/40 bowl split allows for versatile use, with a larger bowl for washing and a smaller bowl for rinsing or food preparation.

Uso generale:

• Use the sink for washing dishes, preparing food, and other general kitchen activities.
• Avoid placing extremely hot items directly onto the sink surface without protection, although stainless steel is highly heat resistant.
• Ensure proper drainage by keeping the drain clear of large food particles.

Manutenzione e cura

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and extend the life of your stainless steel sink. BLANCO recommends regular cleaning to prevent mineral buildup and maintain the finish.

Pulizia giornaliera:

• After each use, rinse the sink thoroughly with warm water to remove food particles and soap residue.
• Wipe the sink dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and mineral deposits, especially in hard water areas.
• Per una pulizia generale, utilizzare un detersivo per piatti delicato e una spugna o un panno morbidi.

Deep Cleaning and Stain Removal:

• For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water. Apply with a soft cloth and rub in the direction of the grain.
• Sciacquare abbondantemente e asciugare immediatamente.
• Avoid using steel wool, abrasive cleaners, or harsh chemicals (e.g., bleach, drain cleaners containing chlorides) as these can damage the stainless steel finish.

Prevenire i graffi:

• While stainless steel is durable, it can scratch. Use a sink grid (if available for your model) to protect the bottom of the sink from pots and pans.
• Avoid dragging heavy or sharp objects across the sink surface.
