Care Information
Allow 10 minutes to cool before replacing, adjusting or cleaning. Do not clean the units with a pressure
washer.
In normal circumstances, stainless steel is very resistant to corrosion, however it may require maintenance
to preserve the high quality appearance. Wash the product with warm soapy water, removing all surface
deposits, then rinse with clear water and dry with a soft cloth.
In some cases, surface corrosion may arise after installation. This is normally caused by tiny iron particles left
behind after production. Wash and dry as above, then wipe over with a soft cloth soaked in protective oil.
If the product is subject to extreme environmental conditions such as marine locations, or acid rain,
maintenance should be carried out around four times a year. For severe corrosion, non-abrasive cream
cleaners or proprietary stainless steel cleaners should be used to remove the corrosion, then treat as above.
Glass parts - Remove and wash in warm water or just use a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive materials as
these will damage the finish.
