(38°C). For higher temperatures push the
button on the adjustment handle. In case of
hot or cold water pressure failure, the flow will
automatically stop.
MAINTENANCE OF THE SURFACES
Before cleaning, make sure the faucet is cold
(heat wears the surface of the faucet down). Do
not use products containing acids or corrosive
substances. Wipe the faucet daily with a soft
cloth. Do not use steel wool or metal pads,
abrasive sponges or similar products. Right
after cleaning rinse off the detergent residues
with cold water. Damages to the faucets caused
by incorrect treatment are not covered by the
warranty.
