Please note that sanitary taps require special care

tions:

When cleaning, never use petrol, solvents,

aggressive cleansers or hard cleaning brushes
etc. These could damage the surface of the

Dry your taps with a cloth after every use in

order to avoid the build-up of any limescale.

Clean the product with a damp, soft cloth and

a mild cleaning agent if required.
