Collection Disc Cleaning
Check every day for any changes in the flow rate and any leakage of mist blowing out of the
outlet hole. The collection disc has a self-cleaning function. However, if the flow rate decreases or
a mist leakage from the outlet hole is observed, it may be caused by a dirty collection disc. In that
case, blow compressed air from the cleaning nozzle or water pressure from the tap water to clean
the collection disc.
