It is recommended that you periodically clean the aerator of your fau­cet. To do so, unscrew the aerator holder from its own seat. Simply
using a toothbrush, or something similar, rub the filter under the wa­ter, removing the impurities and any build up. Screw the areator back
into place.

Cleaning of the side spray

Any deposits which may accumulate on the nozzle can be removed
by simply running a finger over the rubber extrusions and then run­ning the water for a few seconds. In extreme cases this step may have
to be repeated.

General maintenance

ENGLISH

Clean aerator periodically.
Do not use harsh detergents, solvents, chemical agents, metallic
sponges, etc. that could harm the surface.
Clean only with a soft sponge and soapy water.
Clean and then dry properly the faucet in case of very hard or calcare­ous water, whose deposits cold damage the surface.
