Инструкция по эксплуатации

The Schock Lithos D150 sink is designed for standard kitchen use. Its two bowls allow for versatile operation:

• Главная чаша: Ideal for washing larger pots, pans, and dishes.
• Half Bowl with Drainer: Suitable for rinsing vegetables, thawing food, or air-drying smaller items.
• Сливные пробки: Use the provided drain plugs to fill the bowls with water as needed. Ensure they are properly seated to prevent leakage.
• Температура воды: The Cristalite Plus material is highly resistant to temperature fluctuations. However, avoid pouring extremely hot liquids (e.g., boiling oil) directly onto the sink surface without running cold water simultaneously, as this can cause thermal shock over time.

Обслуживание

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Schock Cristalite Plus sink.

• Ежедневная уборка: Clean the sink daily with a soft cloth or sponge and a mild dish soap. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and wipe dry to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
• Устойчивые пятна: For more stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive cream cleaner specifically designed for composite sinks. Apply with a soft cloth, rub gently, then rinse thoroughly.
• Избегайте абразивных материалов: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool, or harsh chemicals (e.g., oven cleaner, paint stripper, strong acids/alkalis) as these can damage the Cristalite Plus surface.
• Тепловая защита: While Cristalite Plus is heat resistant, always use a trivet or heat pad for hot pots and pans directly from the stove or oven to prevent potential discoloration or damage over time.
• Предотвращение царапин: Avoid dragging heavy or sharp objects across the sink surface.
• Уход за канализацией: Regularly clean the drain strainers to prevent food particles from accumulating and causing clogs.

Поиск неисправностей

Вот решения распространенных проблем, с которыми вы можете столкнуться:

• Slow Draining / Clogs:
  • Remove and clean the drain strainer.
  • Use a plunger to clear minor clogs.
  • If the clog persists, a plumbing snake may be required, or contact a plumber. Avoid chemical drain cleaners as they can damage plumbing or the sink surface.
• Утечки вокруг края раковины:
  • This usually indicates a problem with the sealant or mounting clips.
  • Check if mounting clips are tight.
  • The sealant may need to be reapplied. This often requires removing the sink, cleaning old sealant, and applying new silicone. Professional assistance is recommended.
• Leaks from Drain or Faucet Connections:
  • Gently tighten the connections. Do not overtighten.
  • Check if washers or gaskets are properly seated or if they need replacement.
• Dull Surface / Water Spots:
  • Ensure you are drying the sink after each use to prevent mineral buildup.
  • Use a mild descaling agent (e.g., diluted vinegar solution) for mineral deposits, then rinse thoroughly.
  • For general dullness, a specialized composite sink cleaner or polish can restore luster.
