6. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Geberit iCon washbasin cabinet.

• Cleaning: For general cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent. Wipe dry immediately to prevent water spots.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or strong chemical agents, as these can damage the high-gloss lacquered surface and engineered wood.
• Humidity Resistance: While the cabinet is resistant to humidity, avoid prolonged exposure to standing water or excessive moisture. Ensure good ventilation in the bathroom.
• Drawer Mechanisms: Periodically check the drawer runners for any debris and clean if necessary to maintain smooth operation.

7. Troubleshooting

Here are some common issues and their potential solutions:

• Drawer not closing smoothly: Check for any obstructions in the drawer runners. Ensure the drawer is properly aligned on its tracks. Clean the runners if necessary.
• Cabinet appears loose on the wall: Immediately re-tighten all mounting screws. If the issue persists, the wall fixings may be inadequate for the wall type or load. Consult a professional.
• Surface stains: For most stains, a mild soap solution and a soft cloth should suffice. For stubborn stains, consult a specialist for engineered wood care products.
