Konfiguracja i instalacja

Wymagane narzędzia:

• Ołówek
• Taśma miernicza lub linijka

Kontrole przed instalacją:

• Bore Distance: These hinges require a 3mm bore distance, which is the measurement from the outermost edge of the cabinet door to the start of the hinge cup hole.
• Cup Depth: The hinge cup depth is 7/16" (11mm). Ensure your door material can accommodate this depth.
• Narzuta: These hinges are designed for a 3/8" overlay, meaning the door will protrude 1/8" beyond the cabinet frame when closed.

Kroki instalacji:

1. Mark Hinge Locations: On the inside of your cabinet door, mark the positions for the hinge cups. Typically, hinges are placed 2-3 inches from the top and bottom edges of the door. Ensure the 3mm bore distance is maintained from the door edge to the start of the 35mm hole.
2. Drill Hinge Cup Holes: Using a drill with a 35mm Forstner bit, carefully drill the hinge cup holes to a depth of 7/16" (11mm) at the marked locations. Ensure the holes are clean and free of debris.

Instrukcja obsługi

Soft-Close Function (BLUMOTION):

The integrated BLUMOTION mechanism ensures that your cabinet doors close softly and silently. Simply push the door gently, and the hinge will engage the soft-close feature, preventing slamming.

Deactivation Switch:

For smaller or lighter cabinet doors, the soft-close action might be too strong. These hinges include a deactivation switch located on the hinge cup. To deactivate the soft-close function, slide the switch to the 'off' position. This can be useful for doors that are very light and might not close fully with the soft-close engaged, or if you prefer a traditional closing action.

Konserwacja

• Czyszczenie: Clean the hinges with a soft, damp szmatką. Unikaj środków czyszczących o działaniu ściernym i rozpuszczalników, ponieważ mogą one uszkodzić wykończenie.
• Kontrole okresowe: Periodically check all mounting screws for tightness. Loose screws can affect hinge performance and door alignment.
• Smarowanie: The BLUMOTION mechanism is maintenance-free and does not require lubrication.

Rozwiązywanie problemów

• Drzwi nie zamykają się cicho:
  • Check if the deactivation switch is in the 'on' position.
  • Ensure the door is not too heavy for the number of hinges used.
• Drzwi nie zamykają się całkowicie:
  • Check for obstructions within the cabinet opening.
  • Verify that the hinges are properly aligned and adjusted.
  • If the door is very light, try deactivating the soft-close mechanism.
• Niewspółosiowość drzwi:
  • Use the adjustment screws on the hinge to fine-tune the door's position horizontally, vertically, and for depth.
  • Sprawdź, czy wszystkie śruby montażowe są dokręcone.
