Water contains lime which remains on the surface after
the water has evaporated. These lime deposits can be
prevented from forming by wiping immediately after use.
To clean the chrome-plated surfaces use a soft cloth,
soap and warm water. Never use cleaning agents that
contain a corrosive acid or a scouring additive.
