How do I clean the stainless steel finish?

To clean the stainless steel, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. A mild soap solution can be used if necessary, followed by rinsing with a clean damp cloth.

Troubleshooting

Towel rail is not heating up.

Ensure the fused spur connection is active and correctly wired. Check if the built-in switch is in the 'on' position and verify the timer setting. If the issue persists, the heating element may require inspection by a qualified professional.

Unit is making unusual noises.

This is uncommon for dry electric elements. If a persistent noise is heard, disconnect power and contact the manufacturer or a qualified technician for assessment.

Visible signs of corrosion or rust.

While stainless steel is highly resistant, extreme conditions or damage to the surface could lead to minor discoloration. Clean gently with a mild detergent and water. If significant rust appears, contact the manufacturer as this may indicate a defect.
