Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning
Scouring milk and cleaning agents or disinfectants containing the following ingredients may not be used:
alcohol
ammoniac
hydrochloric acid
phosphoric acid
acetic acid
Cleaning and maintenance of the concealed cistern
In consideration of the mechanical, chemical and physical conditions, the concealed cistern is constantly laden.
For this reason, the components must be cleaned, as required, and the drain and filling valve seals renewed.
In areas or regions with hard water due to calcium or magnesium salts, there is the risk of limescale deposits developing on the inlet and drain valves.
The valves may have to be replaced, depending on the extent of deposits.
Disposal
Separate the product and packaging materials (e. g. paper, metal, plastic or non-ferrous metals) and dispose of in accordance with valid national legal requirements.
