Cuidado y mantenimiento
Proper care and maintenance will ensure the long-lasting performance and appearance of your KOHLER Awaken Showerhead.
Cleaning the Sprayface
The showerhead features a Rociador MasterClean with an advanced design that resists mineral buildup. To clean, simply wipe the sprayface with a damp cloth. For stubborn mineral deposits, a mild solution of vinegar and water can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads, as these can damage the finish.
Maintaining the Finish
The Oil Rubbed Bronze finish is designed to resist corrosion and tarnishing. To maintain its appearance, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, ammonia-based cleaners, or abrasive materials, as these can strip the finish and void the warranty.
