Setup and Installation
- Unpack the Grid: Carefully remove the sink grid from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage.
- Verify Compatibility: This grid is specifically designed to fit the BLANCO FORMERA 25" KITCHEN SINK, model #442766. Ensure your sink model matches for proper fit.
- Placement: Gently lower the stainless steel grid into the bottom of your compatible BLANCO sink. Position it so that the central opening aligns with the sink's drain. The protective feet on the grid should rest evenly on the sink surface.
No tools are required for installation. The grid is designed for a simple drop-in placement.
Operating and Usage
Once installed, the BLANCO 237140 Sink Grid serves to elevate dishes, pots, and pans from the sink's bottom surface. This elevation helps prevent scratches and wear on the sink while allowing food particles and water to drain freely underneath the grid. It also provides a stable surface for washing and rinsing items.
- Place items directly onto the grid for washing or drying.
- Ensure the grid remains properly seated in the sink during use.
Maintenance and Care
Regular cleaning and proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your BLANCO sink grid.
- Daily Cleaning: Rinse the grid with warm water after each use to remove food particles and debris.
- Deep Cleaning: The stainless steel grid is dishwasher-safe. For thorough cleaning, place it in the dishwasher. Alternatively, hand wash with mild dish soap and a soft brush or sponge.
- Stain Removal: For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. Always follow the cleaner manufacturer's instructions and rinse thoroughly afterward.
- Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface and compromise its rust-resistant properties.
- Heat Resistance: The grid is heat-resistant, allowing hot pots and pans to be placed on it without damage to the grid itself.
