Care and Cleaning (cont.)
Maintaining the Airjets
If cleaning the airjets is required due to hard water deposits, use a small between-the-teeth dental
brush and white vinegar. Dip the brush in the vinegar, brush the hole, rinse the brush in clean
water, and then use the wet rinsed brush to rinse the hole.
Fill the bath with water to the top row of airjets. Drain the bath.
