To keep the original quality of your Stainless Steel Sink, we recommend regular cleaning. Use a mild liquid dish
detergent and water to clean the product after use. Rinse carefully and dry.
More stubborn spots are often caused by impurities in the water or household substances. These can be removed
with special polish agents for stainless steel. Dull spots can become lustrous again if rubbed with chalk on a soft
cloth.
•
Do not let water or other liquids dry on the product. Liquids that are left to dry leave a grey build-up stain on
the steel.
•
Stainless steel can stand hard treatment, but sharp objects can easily scratch the surface. These scratches
are more visible when the product is new. After a period of use these marks will be smoothed out without the
product losing it luster.
•
Never use scouring powder or steel wool to clean the surface. Apart from the risk of scratches, there is also a
risk that rust stains will attack the steel.
•
Avoid Chlorine-based solutions from coming into contact with the stainless steel.
•
Silver polish leaves spots that cannot be removed.
•
Acidic foods (e.g. juices, salt, mustard, mayonnaise, etc.) must be cleaned up immediately.
AMERICAN-STANDARD LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY FOR STAINLESS STEEL SINKS
American-Standard warrants to the original purchaser consumer of an American-Standard stainless steel sink that it will, at its option,
repair or replace such product if it is found by American-Standard, in its sole judgment, to be defective under normal residential use,

proof of purchase will be required – save sales receipt.
This limited lifetime warranty DOES NOT COVER the following:
1. Defects or damages arising from shipping, installation, alterations, accidents, abuse, misuse, environmental factors, lack of proper

contractor, service company, the owner or any other person.
2. Deterioration through normal wear and tear and the expense of normal maintenance.
3. Commercial application.
4. Options and accessories. American-Standard’s limited warranty on these items is one year for parts only. This one year limited

6. ANY LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LABOR, ALL OF WHICH ARE HEREBY

LIMITED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR AN INTENDED PURPOSE. IN NO
EVENT WILL AMERICAN STANDARD BE LIABLE FOR THE COST OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF ANY INSTALLATION
MATERIALS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO TILES, MARBLE ETC. (Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an
implied limited warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so these limitations and exclusions
may not apply to you.)
7. Responsibility for compliance with local code requirements. (Since local code requirements vary greatly distributors, retailers,
dealers, installation contractors and users of plumbing products should determine whether there are any code restrictions on the
installation or use of a specific product.)
