9 - Cleaning and Maintenance
Never attempt to install, disassemble, inspect or repair the appliance before disconnecting the power on the main electric switchboard (Fig.11).
External Cleaning: Use only damp cloth without any chemical.
Internal cleaning of the spreader: Hardness (high mineral content), dirt and debris in the water can affect the well-functioning of the appliance. If there is obstruction of the spreader holes causing reduction of water flow and/or deforming jets, it is recommended to clean the spreader.
For spreader cleaning: remove by turning it counterclockwise and follow the steps indicated at Figs.16 and 17. Then, proceed as in Fig.15. Use a brush to unblock the holes. After cleaning, reinstall the spreader back as instructed at Item 4.1 (Spreader Installation) to the heater unit. Run water through the appliance, making sure there are no leaks and the water is flowing uniformly and unobstructed through the spreader. Then, turn the circuit breaker ON.
