Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance will help preserve the finish and performance of your Delta H2Okinetic Hand Held Shower.
Cleaning Instructions:
- General Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap to clean the surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scrubbing pads, as these can damage the matte black finish.
- Mineral Deposits: For stubborn mineral deposits on the spray nozzles, gently rub them with your finger or a soft brush. Delta's Touch-Clean spray holes allow for easy removal of calcium and lime buildup.
- Hose Care: Periodically wipe down the metal hose to prevent buildup. Ensure the hose is not kinked or twisted during use or storage.
- Avoid Damage: Do not use tools to tighten connections, as this can cause damage. Hand-tighten only.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Delta H2Okinetic Hand Held Shower, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Low Water Pressure:
- Check if the main water supply valve is fully open.
- Inspect the shower head nozzles for mineral buildup and clean them as described in the Maintenance section.
- Ensure the hose is not kinked or obstructed.
- Leaks:
- Verify all connections are hand-tight.
- Check the rubber washers (gaskets) at connection points for proper seating or damage. Replace if necessary.
- Hand Shower Not Staying in Place on Slide Bar:
- Ensure the release mechanism on the holder is fully engaged after adjusting the height.
- Inspect the holder for any damage or wear that might prevent it from gripping the hand shower securely.
