We have listed a few tips on fi nding and eliminating faults here in case the disposer will not
switch on or off, or if other problems arise. If you are unsuccessful in eliminating a fault
after trying these tips, do not do any repairs yourself; contact BLANCO Customer Service

The drain pipe will not block if the disposer is used correctly. The
kitchen waste is ground very fi nely before it reaches the sewage
system. Hot and cold water are always guaranteed to drain away,
even when the disposer is switched off.
A motor circuit breaker protects the disposer against damage if it gets
too hot - due to excessive use, for example. Let the disposer cool
down for a time. Do not press the reset switch at the bottom of the
motor disposer it has cooled down. Keep the space beneath the
disposer clear to allow good access to the reset switch.
Disposer will not switch on.
Blockage
Long-fibred foodstuffs have become stuck in the grinding chamber or
extremely hard/large objects have blocked the grinder. This caused the
motor to overheat and shut off automatically.
1. Switch the disposer off.
2. Switch the disposer off at the electrical socket outlet.
DANGER – injury, damage
The disposer must be disconnected from the power supply if you
wish to clean the disposer interior or remove a blockage from the
grinding chamber.
