Care
Trouble Shooting
We want to ensure that you get long-lasting
satisfaction and pleasure from your GROHE
fitting. Therefore, please read the following
care instructions because damage to the
surface and underlying material resulting
from improper treatment is not covered by
guarantee.
Do not use any abrasive sponges or scou-
ring agents for cleaning. We also advise not
to use cleaning agents containing solvent or
acid, limescale removers, household vinegar
and cleaning agents with acetic acid. They
are aggressive to the surface and will leave
your fitting dull and scratched. As the for-
mulations of commercially available cleaning
agents frequently change, we cannot gua-
rantee they will provide the gentle care our
fitting deserves.
Clean the fitting with a little soap and a moist
cloth only, then simply rinse off and wipe dry.
You can avoid lime spots by drying the fitting
each time it is used. If lime deposits do oc-
cur, remove them with Grohclean (ref. no.
18 078), our environment-friendly cleaning
liquid. Grohclean is specially formulated to
gently clean the surface of our fittings.
