QuickClean Function
The flexible silicone nozzles on the spray face are designed to prevent limescale buildup. To clean them:
- After each use, or as needed, gently rub your fingers across the silicone nozzles on the spray face.
- This action dislodges any accumulated limescale, ensuring an even spray pattern.

- Use only mild cleaning agents specifically designed for bathroom fixtures.
- Apply the cleaner to a soft cloth, then wipe the shower surface.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or cleaners containing harsh chemicals like hydrochloric acid, formic acid, chlorine bleach, or acetic acid, as these can damage the finish.
