Maintenance
Disconnect the power cord prior to performing any maintenance.
Handle the bath with care, sudden jolts or drops can damage its components.
Cleaning
Clean the bath's surface with a soft cloth and warm water only.
Clean the reservoir and built-in components at least every time the bath liquid is changed.
Before cleaning the bath's surfaces, to protect labels, the nameplate, electrical connections,
painted and plastic surfaces and to prevent the cleaning agent from entering through any vent
openings, mask off all areas except the reservoir.
After time, the circulating bath's stainless steel surfaces may show spots and become tarnished.
Normal stainless steel cleaners can be used.
Do not use scouring powder or any substance containing solvents.
The inside of the bath must be kept clean in order to ensure a long service life. Quickly remove
substances containing acidic or alkaline substances and metal shavings as they could harm the
surfaces causing corrosion. If corrosion (e.g., small rust marks) occur in spite of this, cleaning with
stainless steel caustic agents has proved to be suitable. Apply these substances according to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Electrical Power Cord
Ensure any replacement cord is properly rated.
