Services HANSA

– After cleaning, cleaning agent residues are thoroughly

rinsed off with clean, cold water to remove absolutely all

remaining cleaner residues.

For Plastics

contact with acetone (e.g. nail polish remover) and alcohol

(e.g. perfume, hair spray) must be avoided. Clean only

with an antistatic plastic cleaner or with a solution of

washing-up liquid. Avoid lengthy exposure to heat such as

direct sunlight or contact with hot objects!

6. Maintenance and General Safety Notes

– Corner and flush-mounted valves as well as other locking

elements should be actuated once every three months

and checked for leaks and proper function.

– Turn the temperature selector at the thermostat once

a month around the whole range from very cold to very

hot while the water flow is fully on. This causes possible

deposits to be loosened and flushed out. This leads to

your appreciation of your HANSA thermostat lasting

longer.

– Clean the shower’s jet pattern adjustments, filters and jet

covers regularly. Negligible scale deposits at the jet

covers can be removed by wiping with the ball of the

thumb or by „brushing“ with a soft brush.

Safety note for work on electrical components

(e.g. power supply unit, changing light fittings)

Ensure that the power is disconnected prior to starting

work on such equipment, e.g. disconnect the mains plug.

Caution halogen lamps! Do not touch the glass bulb with

bare hands when changing the lights, since the grease film

left on the glass bulb is burnt in and thereby the service

life of the lamp is considerably decreased.

CAUTION! We Recommend!

Proper inspection and possibly maintenance of the whole

system once every year by one of our skilled sanitary

experts.

Important Notes:

– Residues of body care substances such as liquid soap,

shampoos and shower gels can also cause damage.

The same applies to them: Rinse off residues well with

clean, cold water.

– The action of cleaning agents leads to the damage

deteriorating on already damaged surfaces.

5. Procedure for Removing Limescale

Residue on Other Surfaces

HANSAMURANO Glass Dish

– Prepare an approx. 1 % solution of citric acid (available in

chemist’s. Warning: Keep citric acid away from eyes and

open wounds. Rinse thoroughly with water if it comes

into contact with the skin!)

– Place a piece of a paper handkerchief or a tissue on

the affected area.

– Put a few drops of the citric acid on the affected area

(the tissue prevents the acid running off the area).

– Allow the acid to react for approx. 30 minutes; do not

allow to dry (if necessary, add a few more drops).

– Remove the tissue after approx. 30 minutes; if required

wipe gently with the still wet tissue. Never rub vigorously

with a dry tissue or anything similar.

– Rinse the treated area with water prior to the next use.

Repeat steps 2-5 if scale residues are still visible; if

necessary several times.

Other Surfaces/Materials Such as, e.g. Cut Glass

are to be cleaned properly with a soft, dry cloth. Stubborn

stains, e.g. grease, are easily removed by rubbing with

a chamois leather rinsed in clean, hot water. Do not use

chemicals or cleaning agents for cleaning cut glass mirrors.

Soap residue in cut glass soap dishes can cause the glass

to become dull after a length of time. Therefore rinse the

glass regularly with hot water and remove soap residues.

The glass is, of course, dishwasher safe if the glass wash

programme is set.

Important Notes:

Never use highly acidic descalents containing hydro-

chloric, phosphoric acids or anything similar!

Never remove scale by scratching off or scouring!
