Cleaning Recommendation for Hansgrohe Products
Modern faucetry and shower products utilize a combination of materials to comply with the needs of the market with regard to
design and functionality.
To avoid damage, it is necessary to use some caution when cleaning. Damage caused by improper treatment is not covered
under the Hansgrohe warranty.
Cleaning Materials for Faucets and Showers
•
To remove lime scale, use only products made specifically for that purpose. Always follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions when using.
•
Do not use cleaners that contain hydrochloric, formic, acetic, or phosphoric acids, as these will cause considerable dam-
age to finishes and to plastic components.
•
Never mix cleaning materials.
•
Never use cleaners containing abrasives. Do not use abrasive cleaning cloths, pads, or sponges.
Cleaning Procedures
•
Clean your faucets and shower products as and when required. Regular cleaning will prevent scale buildup and water
spotting.
•
Follow the label instructions. Do not allow any cleaner to remain on the product for longer than necessary.
•
When using spray cleaners, spray first onto a sponge or cloth – do not spray directly onto the product.
•
After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with clear water to remove any cleaner residue.
Important
•
Soap and shampoo residue can also cause damage to the product. Rinse well with clean water after use.
•
If the surface is already damaged, harsh cleaning materials will cause further damage.
