8. Storing Your Electric Aerator
To save space the aerator can be folded up by releasing
the wing nuts.
Take care during this process that the cable does not
become trapped.
v Store the Aerator in a dry, closed room to which children
cannot gain access.
1. Switch off motor, unplug from the mains and wait until the
aerator cylinder stops.
2. Move the wear compensation to the transport position and
raise the aerator when transporting it over sensitive surfaces,
e.g. tiles.
