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 
our 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.
