The GT-F5 Ultrasonic Cleaner is a device designed for private home use to clean various items through ultrasonic cavitation. It is not intended for commercial purposes and should only be used indoors.
Function Description:
The ultrasonic cleaner operates on the principle of ultrasonic cleaning, which involves the cavitation effect caused by the vibration of high-frequency ultrasonic waves in a liquid. Microscopic bubbles are formed, which then implode, creating an intense scrubbing action on the surface of the item being cleaned. This process effectively removes dirt and grime, restoring items to an almost "like new" condition without causing damage to delicate parts. The bubbles are small enough to penetrate microscopic crevices, ensuring thorough and consistent cleaning.

Usage Features:
The device features an "ON" button, a "SET" button for timer selection, and an "OFF" button. It includes a lid, a view window, a digital display time, a basket, and a watch holder.
Operation Steps:
- Open the lid and fill the stainless steel tank with water. It is crucial to note that running the device without water will cause damage.
- Put the objects to be cleaned into the water. Ensure the objects are completely immersed, but the water level does not exceed the "MAX" marking.
- Close the lid and connect the power cord to an outlet. The LED display will show "180" as the default time (180 seconds). Press the "SET" button to choose the desired cleaning time from the 5 available cycle options (90S, 180S, 280S, 380S, 480S).
- Press the "ON" button to start cleaning. The default start time is 90 seconds. A buzzing sound will be heard during cleaning, indicating the machine is working. Do not continuously work for over 30 minutes.
- To stop cleaning during operation, press the "OFF" button.
- Once cleaning is completed, unplug the power cord, open the lid, and remove the cleaned items. Pour out the dirty water from the tank, clean and wipe the tank dry, and store it away from children. Do not soak the operation button when pouring out water.
Cleaning Methods:
- General Cleaning: Use normal water. The object should be completely immersed, but the water should not exceed the maximum fill level.
- Thorough Cleaning: For better results, a few drops of universal detergent can be added. Commercial dishwashing detergent, preferably without lipid-replenishing substances ("balm"), is recommended. For professional cleaning, special cleaning detergents can be used, chosen based on the objects and type of contamination.
- Partial Cleaning: For larger objects, the device can be used with its lid open. Do not touch the liquid during operation.
- Ultra Cleaning: For extensive cleaning, perform a "Thorough Cleaning" procedure first, then replace the water and repeat the "Thorough Cleaning" process until items are completely clean.
Objects Suitable for Cleaning:
- Personal Items: Glasses, dentures, toothbrushes, razor blades, baby items, etc.
- Jewelry: Necklaces, rings, earrings, bracelets, watch chains, coins, etc.
- Metal Parts: Coins, medals, badges, valves, etc.
Objects Not Suitable for Ultrasonic Cleaning:
- Genuine pearls, semi-precious stones, costume jewelry or soft stones such as pearls, turquoise, coral, emeralds, etc.
- Objects that can easily be discolored, waterlogged, or damaged.
- Wooden items, leather items, fabric, materials with a sensitive/already damaged surface, electric devices, polycarbonate lenses (thermoplastics), glasses equipped with coated plastic lenses (even the smallest damage to the surface layer may result in irreparable damages to the material).
- Mobile phones, watches, glass frames, or artworks made from tortoiseshell or abalone.
Maintenance Features:
- Cleaning the Tank: Use a cloth to clean and dry the tank.
- Residual Water: Ensure there is no residual water left in the tank to prevent limescale.
- Storage: Store the device in a cool and dry place, out of children's reach.
- Power Cord: Check the joint of the power plug and cord regularly.
- Handling: Do not impact or hit the device. Handle with care when moving it.
Safety Instructions and Warnings:
- Intended Use: Designed for private home use only, not commercial. Use indoors only.
- Children: Not intended for use by individuals with restricted physical, sensory, or mental capacities, or those with lack of experience or knowledge, unless supervised or trained. Cleaning and user maintenance should not be carried out by children without supervision. Store device and accessories out of reach of children. Children must not play with packaging material or bags.
- Electric Shock (Moisture): Do not use near bathtubs, showers, washbasins, or other vessels containing water. Never put the device down in a way that it could fall into water while still connected. Protect the device from moisture, dripping water, or splash water. Never touch the device with wet hands. If the device, cable, or mains plug falls into water or other liquids, pull out the mains plug immediately and then remove the device from the water. Do not use the device again; have it checked by a specialist.
- Electric Shock (Damage): Do not operate if the cable shows visible signs of damage or if the device has been dropped. Only connect the mains plug to a properly installed socket with matching voltage. The socket must be easily accessible after connection. Ensure the cable is not damaged by sharp edges or hot surfaces. Do not wrap the cable around the device. Make sure the cable is not trapped or crushed. Always pull on the plug, not the cable, when removing the device. Remove the mains plug from the socket after each use, if a fault occurs, when not using the device, before cleaning, and during thunderstorms.
- Modifications: To avoid any risk, do not make any changes to the device or accessories. Do not replace the cable yourself; repairs must only be carried out by a specialized company.
- Material Damage: Use only original accessories. Never place the device on hot surfaces or near heat sources or open fire. Place the device on a dry and even surface. Do not place the device on a soft surface that might cover the openings.
- Operation: Do not operate when the tank is empty (dry running will damage the device). When filling, ensure the "MAX" marking is not exceeded. Do not run the device for extended time or continuously (over 30 minutes). Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaners. Do not hit the device; be careful when moving it. Do not expose the device to temperatures below -10℃ or above +40℃.
- Liability: No liability is assumed for scratched or damaged objects.
