Operating Instructions
Your Blanco Zenar XL 6 S sink is designed for ease of use in daily kitchen activities. Familiarize yourself with its features to maximize convenience.
- Using the Glass Cutting Board: The high-quality glass cutting board can be slid along the entire length of the sink, providing a versatile workspace. Position it over the basin or draining area as needed.

- Remote Pop-Up Control: Use the remote pop-up control knob, typically located on the tap ledge, to open and close the drain without needing to reach into the basin. Turn the knob to operate the strainer basket waste.
- Strainer Basket Waste: Ensure the strainer basket is properly seated to prevent debris from entering the drain. Clean it regularly to maintain optimal drainage.
Care and Maintenance
To maintain the pristine appearance and functionality of your Blanco Silgranit PuraDur sink, follow these simple care instructions:
- Daily Cleaning: After each use, wipe the sink surface with a dry cloth to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
- Regular Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a mild dish soap and a soft sponge or cloth. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry.
- Stain Removal: For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for granite composite sinks. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or steel wool, as these can damage the surface.
- Preventing Damage: Avoid dropping heavy or sharp objects into the sink, which could cause chipping or cracking. Do not expose the sink to extreme temperature changes, such as pouring boiling water directly onto a frozen surface.
- C-overflow Maintenance: Periodically clean the hidden C-overflow to ensure proper drainage and hygiene.
- Glass Cutting Board Care: Wash the glass cutting board with dish soap and water. It is dishwasher safe.
Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your sink. For problems not listed here, please contact customer support.
- Slow Drainage: Check the strainer basket for food debris or blockages. If the issue persists, the P-trap or drain pipe may require cleaning.
- Water Spots/Mineral Buildup: This is common in hard water areas. Regular wiping with a dry cloth after use helps. For existing buildup, use a solution of white vinegar and water, let it sit briefly, then scrub and rinse.
- Discoloration/Stains: Ensure you are cleaning regularly as per the "Care and Maintenance" section. For deep stains, specialized Silgranit cleaners are available. Avoid leaving highly pigmented foods (e.g., coffee, tea, red wine) in contact with the surface for extended periods.
- Pop-Up Control Malfunction: Check for any obstructions in the drain mechanism. If the remote control is not operating smoothly, it may require adjustment or cleaning of the cable mechanism.
