aerator, the key engages with this allowing you to unscrew the insert easily. For Zeos
models, use the aerator key to unscrew the aerator housing, you will then be able to
pop the insert out the top of the housing. Rinse o the upper face of the insert with
running water and gently brush clean with an old toothbrush to remove any debris
