7. Manutenzione e pulizia

Una pulizia e una manutenzione regolari garantiranno la longevità e le prestazioni ottimali del vostro rubinetto.

7.1 Cleaning the Tap Surface

• Pulire regolarmente la finitura cromata con un panno morbido, acqua e sapone neutro.
• Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately with a soft, dry cloth to prevent water spots.
• Do not use abrasive sponges, scouring pads, or chemical cleaners containing acids, ammonia, or bleach, as these can damage the chrome plating.

7.2 Cleaning the Sprayer Head

• Over time, mineral deposits can build up in the sprayer nozzles, affecting water flow.
• Gently rub the rubber nozzles with your finger or a soft brush to dislodge any deposits.
• For stubborn buildup, unscrew the sprayer head (if detachable) and soak it in a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water for 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

7.3 Filter Replacement (if applicable)
