Then proceed according to the instructions below.
Sanitisation
Before and after each use, sanitise the components, choosing one of the methods described below.
method A: sanitise the components under warm drinking water (approx. 40°C) with mild dish-

method B: sanitise the components in a dishwasher on a hot cycle.
method C: sanitise the components by soaking in a solution of 50% water and 50% white vinegar,
then rinse thoroughly with warm drinking water (approx. 40°C).
If you also wish to carry out cleaning by DISINFECTION, skip to the DISINFECTION section.

bubbles from forming in contact with the components. Leave the components immersed for the
ost
period of time indicated on the disinfectant packaging, and associated with the concentration
chosen for the preparation of the solution.
