WE RECOMMEND USING LOW HARDNESS WATER WITH A LOW IRON CONTENT IN THE WATER
TANK, INASMUCH AS CALCIUM AND IRON DEPOSITS CAN COMPROMISE THE LOOK AND
OPERATION OF THE HOME GARDEN.
WHEN THE TANK IS FULL, THE VAPOUR JETS WILL BE SLIGHTLY WEAKER. THE STRENGTH OF
THE JETS WILL INCREASE AS THE TANK WATER LEVEL DROPS.
DO NOT USE DEMINERALISED OR DISTILLED WATER AS THEY CAN AFFECT THE OPERATION
OF THE ULTRASOUND VAPORISER.
WARNING: EXCEEDING THE MAXIMUM TANK WATER LEVEL CAN AFFECT THE OPERATION OF
THE ULTRASOUND VAPORISER.
NEVER EXCEED IT.
IF THE WATER LEVEL EXCEEDS THE MAX MARK, THE TANK CAN BE DRAINED WITH A
SYRINGE OR SIMILAR DEVICE.
WARNING: TAKE CARE WHEN MOVING THE APPLIANCE AS ITS CIRCUITRY CAN BE DAMAGED
BY CONTACT WITH THE WATER IN THE TANK.
11.2 Cleaning the vapour delivery tube
Periodically check the delivery tube for blockages.
If it is blocked, extract it (simply pull it upwards) and clean it under running water or with a steel wire.
11.3 Cleaning the ultrasound vaporiser
If it is necessary to clean the internal vaporiser (for example, because vapour is not delivered even after
you have thoroughly cleaned the hose), contact your nearest Authorised Service Centre.
11.4 Cleaning the base
The base of the Home Garden, once the pots have been removed, can be cleaned with normal non-
abrasive steel detergent, using a clean, dry cloth.
11.5 Cleaning the pots
The pots provided with the appliance have a special double base which can be removed (see figure) for
thorough cleaning without soiling the interior of the Home Garden.
We recommend disinfecting the pots whenever changing the plants contained in them.
(Fig. 11)
11.6 Cleaning the glass panels
The Home Garden’s glass panels, like all glass products, are fragile; exercise caution when cleaning
them. Use normal glass cleaning products.
11.7 Replacing the lamps
The lamps in the Home Garden are of a special type and when they require replacement, this must be
done by an authorised service centre.
