SERVICE

Disconnect the electric supply before

attempting any work on the unit.

SANISLIM

does not require any particular

maintenance.

SANISLIM

is fitted with an active carbon filter,

and requires no external venting. This filter has to

be changed every year.

Any service work on the unit should be carried

out by a registered Saniflo engineer. This is

particularly important if changing the electrical

cable is involved.

USAGE

SANISLIM

will pump away the waste from a

domestic WC, washbasin and shower. It is not

suitable for heavy commercial/industrial

applications.

A WC fitted with

SANISLIM

does not require

any special maintenance.

SANISLIM

will

operate automatically as soon as the required

level of water enters the case.

WARNING:

SANISLIM

runs with hot water

for a prolonged time, the thermal cut out devi-

ce will stop the motor from operating. In this

case, it will take approximately one hour for

the motor and water to cool down, after which

it will automatically re-activate.

WARNING:

SANISLIM

should only

be used for the evacuation of

normal human waste, toilet paper

and household WC cleansers.

Damage may occur to the machine

if the following are disposed of in

the WC: Cotton wool, tampons,

sanitary towels, condoms, wet

wipes, kitchen towels as well

as other fabric or hard items.

A build-up of hair can cause

problems, so a hair trap should be

fitted to a shower. Finally, solvents,

acids and other chemicals can also

damage the unit, and will invalidate

the warranty.

CARE OF YOUR SANISLIM

In order to remove scale and clean the

macerator and the bowl, use a household

descalent (like SANIFLO Descaler).

To avoid the build up of limescale in the unit, use

the following procedure:

• Disconnect the power supply to the unit.

• Pour 3 to 4 litres of water mixed with a strong

solution of descalent into the WC pan.

• Leave it to stand for 1 or 2 hours, then

reconnect the electric supply.

• Flush several times to clear.

The frequency of this operation will depend on

the hardness of the water in your locality. We

would recommend this be done about twice a

year.

WARNING:

Do not pour any acids, caustic

sodas or solvent down into the unit.
