Remove as much deposits as you can
with your hands. If water is available in

If available, use a garden hose to rinse
the radiator fins.

with your hands when it is hot. Let
the radiator cool down before clean-
ing.

the radiator fins when cleaning. Do
not use any object/tool that could
damage the fins. The fins are pur-
posely thin parts to allow efficient
