Servicing and cleaning
Maintaining and cleaning
the faucet
Please note that sanitary fittings require special care.
Please observe the following instructions:
Do not use any type of lime removal agent, acidic
cleaners or scouring agents. Never use corrosive
or alcohol-based materials for cleaning.
Dry your taps with a cloth after every use in
order to avoid the build-up of any limescale.
Clean your fittings with clean water, mild deter-
gent and a soft cloth or leather only.
Unscrew the mixing nozzle 20 at regular intervals
and remove any limescale deposits or foreign
bodies. If it is very dirty or damaged, replace
the mixing nozzle
20 with a new one, which you
can order through the service centre indicated.
Note:
Use a 23 mm spanner to unscrew the
mixer nozzle 20
then wrap the mixer nozzle
20 in a damp, thin cloth, so that it is not dam-
aged. A pipe wrench with plastic jaws is also
suitable. In any event, make sure that you do
not damage the mixing nozzle
20 .
CAUTION! When you attach the mixer nozzle
20 , make sure that the sealing ring 20 a is rein-
serted correctly.
The fastening screw 18 on the swivel arm holds
the swivel arm in its horizontal position. There-
fore the fastening screw
18 is not suitable for
holding the swivel arm in its rotational position.
If the care and maintenance instructions are not fol-
lowed, damage to the surface of the fitting can be
expected. Claims under the warranty are excluded
in this case.
Replacing the cartridge
The cartridge 8 is a wear part and must be
replaced at least every 2 years. If this is not done,
